Character home for modern family living
Modern comforts combine with period features in this charming four bedroom family home in Drouin.
Also key is the convenient location to the town centre and V/Line station, only a few minutes by car, whereas the Drouin Primary School, milk bar, early learning centre and a children’s playground are just down the road.
Decorative plasterwork and high ceilings are featured in the two original, street facing bedrooms.
More recent renovations include an ensuite to one of the bedrooms, a large open plan living area, modern kitchen, the two remaining bedrooms, additional bathroom and a separate laundry towards the rear.
A covered patio off the living area, single carport with direct entry to the home, side access to a 5.7m x 8.8m Colorbond shed and off-street parking for a van or boat are further highlights.
Positioned on an 837m2 elevated allotment, the front of the home enjoys a pleasant outlook across to farmland.
The front entry door opens to a short hall flanked by two of the bedrooms, both of which have large windows maximising the distant rural views.
Moulded cornices, gorgeous Art Deco ceiling panels and picture rails are also features.
One bedroom has a walk-in robe and a three piece ensuite, the other has mirrored robes.
Central to the layout is the kitchen and spacious open plan living area with sliding glazed doors to the rear patio.
Timber laminate flooring is a practical choice and gives the room a modern feel.
Cream cabinetry with laminate counter tops are teamed with all electric appliances comprising a Westinghouse wall oven, ceramic cooktop with integrated rangehood and a Dishlex dishwasher.
Double sinks are set into a large island bench which overlooks the living area.
A step-in corner pantry assists with storage.
Nearby is the direct access to the carport and the laundry.
From the living area, a passageway leads to the two remaining bedrooms, both with twin robes, the family bathroom and a separate toilet.
Both the bathroom and ensuite are well maintained and feature timber flooring, fresh white tiling with a decorative strip and a vanity unit with a blue laminate top.
Additional storage includes a linen press outside the bathroom, three door storage cupboard in the laundry and an extra linen closet in the front entry hall.
Split system air conditioning, a gas heat bank in the living area and one of the front bedrooms, together with ceiling fans in all of the bedrooms take care of climate control.
The shed has power, a concrete floor, pot belly stove, two roller doors at the front and a single door at the side for access.
For the buyer in the market for a character home, loads of space and a terrific shed, your search may be over.
