Mix the vibrant Pako lifestyle with the peace and privacy of your own backyard sanctuary in this heritage home ideal for a modern family.
The weatherboard house, a short stroll from Geelong West’s popular shopping and dining precinct, boasts an array of original character features, including a restored Andrews wood stove, built on the corner of Pakington and Weller streets around 1900.
There’s also fretwork, fireplaces, timber overmantels, ceiling roses, timber floors, an underfloor safe and a vestibule with original milk and bread delivery bin.
This home is readymade for contemporary living too, featuring two living areas, plus a huge kitchen and dining zone with the wood stove as its centrepiece.
But the real highlight is the private, north-facing garden sanctuary with a paved alfresco area, wide undercover verandah, pergola, established lawn and lush garden.
It’s perfectly positioned a few steps from the chef’s kitchen with Euro appliances including a cutting-edge Franke oven and Miele dishwasher, timber benches and loads of storage and working space.
Escape to the front of the house to take a break from busy family life, with three generous bedrooms and a formal lounge accessed from the wide hallway and all with heritage features.
They are serviced by a massive central bathroom with loads of light and a clawfoot bath.
As a bonus, an extra room off the verandah is ideal as a home office, teenage retreat, man cave or fourth bedroom.
Other highlights include family laundry with a storage cupboard plumbed for a shower, double garage with workshop space, plantation shutters and gas ducted heating.
The property is a five-minute walk to Sparrow and West parks and within easy reach of Geelong railway station, highly regarded schools, the Geelong waterfront and CBD.
