Charming home in peaceful garden setting

Beyond the picket fence and charming cottage garden, this delightful home is a peaceful, private haven despite being only a short stroll from the centre of Trafalgar. Number 16 Ashby Street is positioned on a corner allotment, accessed from Kitchener Street. A compact, yet practical layout includes three bedrooms, central bathroom, spacious living/dining room and a fresh, functional kitchen. Large windows throughout the home frame the garden views and fill the interior with natural light. Additional improvements include an oversized single garage with space for a car plus a workshop, lock-up storeroom, garden shed and a potting shed.

Paving and a deck across the rear create a sheltered, shaded spot during the summer months whilst the wisteria covered terrace at the front captures the winter sun. At the east end of the allotment is a hidden pocket of the garden with a thriving veggie garden, fruit trees, blueberries and a lovely old weeping birch tree. Original polished floorboards, high ceilings, sash windows, decorative fretwork and embellished cornices are found in the living room. A large window takes advantage of the sunny northerly aspect whilst a split system air conditioner maintains climate control. Adjoining the living room is the kitchen with soft green counter tops, country profile cabinetry and a subway tiled splashback. Quality appliances include a gas cook top, Ilve under bench oven and a Bosch dishwasher. A pull out pantry, under bench cabinetry and glass overheads provide plenty of storage. Nearby is the laundry with builtin cupboards and outside access to the rear patio and deck.

Quaint frosted glass doors from the kitchen open to the entry hall which leads down to the three bedrooms, bathroom and a double linen press.

All of the bedrooms have floor to ceiling built-in robes and a ceiling fan. The spotless bathroom includes a large vanity, bath, toilet and a gorgeous leadlight window over the bath.

Ducted gas heating, roller blinds, external blinds on the west face and a 16 panel solar unit are additional features.

All of the town’s amenities, including schools, shops, V/Line and community services are within a short, level walk. Private, convenient and brimming with character, this lovely home is sure to please.
