Woodend VIC 3442

Circa 1885, this gorgeous character-filled Victorian cottage offers the perfect blend of original features and modern comfort, ideally located in the very heart of Woodend just one block from High Street shops, restaurants and cafes, and a short walk to supermarkets and the V/Line station.

As you approach the home, you will fall in love with its pretty exterior complete with white picket fence, lovely English style gardens and inviting front porch with classic concave verandah. Step inside, and you will be welcomed in with a feeling of warmth and history. Wall panelling and picture rails highlight the high ceilings, with sash windows and polished timber floors enhancing its sense of charm. The central hallway leads to three generously sized bedrooms (two with BIR), the main with French doors out to the sun-filled rear deck, while the contemporary bathroom with fresh neutral tones includes a large vanity, plenty of storage and a European laundry.

Light-filled and spacious, the double -glazed open plan living area is an inviting space to gather. The stylish white kitchen makes entertaining easy with quality Smeg appliances, an abundance of cabinets, gas cooktop, undermount sink, and an island bench with room for seating. French doors and bi-folds open up to the East facing deck with views to Mount Macedon, where you can enjoy an alfresco lunch with family and friends in the sunshine while children and pets play in the large fully fenced backyard. Additional features include gas central heating, air conditioning, a new roof to the original part of the home, freshly painted exterior and a delightful garden shed with rear lane access.
