There are some things in life that evoke immediate pure joy. Visualise a private, tranquil and spacious 1642sqm (1/3 acre) block filled with beautifully tended cottage gardens, mature trees, manicured lawns and vegetable plots; and set in the middle, a charming weatherboard cottage. Inside, it's all about the light, feature windows and glass sliders ensuring the interior is flooded with natural light all day long and enhanced even further by the stylish white and neutral palette. The dual aspect family space extends out to a north facing patio room inviting relaxing indoor/outdoor alfresco lifestyle. Conveniently set between the family and dining spaces is a contemporary-styled kitchen. Everything is within easy reach with ample bench and storage space complemented by a near new wall oven and electric cooktop, microwave nook and pantry. A bank of three windows delivering garden views ensures time spent at the sink will be an absolute pleasure. There are two queen bedrooms each with built-in robes and between them an all-white, impeccably styled family bathroom with shower, vanity and bath, separate toilet with handbasin and an adjoining laundry with cabinetry and external access to the full length rear verandah and gardens. Set away from the home is a lovely artist's studio/home office plus single garage with storage space and garden rainwater tank. There are numerous additional highlights including quality fixtures and fittings throughout, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, fully fenced boundaries and all town services.

Stroll to the picturesque 'Pond' with its willow trees and resident ducks. Maldon's shops and cafs, school and sporting facilities are a 2-minute drive or an easy 10-minute walk and if exploring Maldon's goldfields past appeals, there are many hikes and notable sites just beyond your doorstep. Castlemaine, Newstead and Lake Cairn Curran are all 15-minutes away. Bendigo and Melbourne are 20 and 90-minutes away either via the Calder Freeway or fast train from Castlemaine. Perfectly positioned and with every expected amenity, this is an idyllic place to call home or a wonderful weekend escape.
