Entering the market for the first time in 75 years, here is your once in a lifetime opportunity to own a historic piece of Geelong West. Built in 1903, this elegant home retains authentic period character, incorporating quality updates and enhancements to offer modern functionality, energy efficiency and classic style. Situated a short stroll from all the cafes, shopping, supermarkets and amenities of the Shannon Avenue strip, within walking distance of iconic Pakington Street, Sparrow Park, local primary schools and Newtown’s private school precinct, with easy access to Geelong Station, the Ring Road and only 5 minutes (approx.) from the CBD, this convenient pocket accommodates an exceptional lifestyle.

A picket fence and beautifully preserved Victorian façade will capture your heart on arrival. Inside, high ceilings and a neutral colour palette create a sense of light and space throughout. The original section of the home comprises three generous bedrooms with built-in robes, and an inviting formal lounge with a gas log fire and cosy atmosphere.

As part of extensive refurbishment and renovations completed in 2016, the rear of the home transitions to a spacious open plan layout featuring a modern kitchen with quality stainless steel appliances, generous storage provisions, contemporary pendant lighting, and is well positioned for entertaining indoors and out. The elegantly updated bathroom features floor to ceiling tiles, spacious shower, separate bath, quality fittings, with a second wc and basin, plus large laundry with storage contributing to the excellent functionality of the home.

Designed for energy efficient living, the home features high quality insulation throughout including all walls and roof cavity, double glazed windows, reverse cycle ducted air conditioning, individual gas heating in both living areas, new how water service (Mar 24) and sensor activated lights in the hallway and bathroom.

Outside, the expansive entertaining area includes a secluded undercover space with outdoor blind, extending out to a spacious open sun deck, providing a fantastic space to relax, or wine and dine outdoors. The rear gardens are beautifully landscaped, designed for low maintenance upkeep, with raised veggie beds and shedding in place for the keen green thumb. Driveway space allows for excellent off street-parking.

Lovingly maintained, with nothing needing to be done, this home is ready to change hands, and start its next chapter.
