53 Elizabeth St, Castlemaine VIC 3450

This renovated three-bedroom 1950s home successfully combines the warmth of the retro with the urban appeal of the contemporary without losing any of its period integrity. A striking Agave Americana greets you upon arrival, a slice of mid-century Palm Springs. The 805 sqm (approx) property has easy access to Castlemaine via walking tracks or a short drive for retail, restaurants, amenities, schools and the train station to Melbourne or Bendigo.

Beautifully presented inside and out, enter the home through double frosted glass doors into a light-filled central foyer. To one side is the inviting north-facing living room with a black feature wall, a gas heater inset into a period surround with a timber ledge and a wall air-conditioner. On the other side is the sunny main bedroom with north and west-facing large windows and a split system.

Central to the home is the updated industrial-style open-plan kitchen with dining, great for entertaining guests and enjoying family meals. You'll stay nice and cozy with a Nectre solid wood heater and split system. The kitchen features sleek stainless steel cabinetry softened by the timber benchtops, a near-new 900mm Glem gas cooktop with an electric oven, inset into a period surround with tiled detailing. The striking contemporary bathroom includes a freestanding bath, a large shower with two shower heads, a toilet and a wall-hung vanity with an above-the-counter basin. A second bedroom has an outlook onto the beautiful Wisteria-draped pergola to the west with a large built-in open robe, perfect for storage, kid's play space or additional home office. To the rear of the home is a laundry with ample storage and a dining nook with external access to the back garden.
