A rarely offered Victorian gem, this beautifully restored residence captures the timeless grace of a bygone era while seamlessly integrating modern luxury and comfort. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Howlong, just a short five-minute stroll to the main street, this stunning property offers the best of both village convenience and country charm. Originally built in the late 1800s, the home retains all its classic hallmarks, a wide bullnose verandah wrapped in leafy vines, soaring 20-foot cedar ceilings, exquisite stained glass entry surrounds, and polished Murray pine floors that speak to its enduring craftsmanship. Inside, the layout delivers an effortless blend of period character and contemporary style. Three generous bedrooms feature builtin robes, with the master boasting a spacious walk-in robe and the second bedroom showcasing a charming capped fireplace. A dedicated study or library includes a working fireplace and built-in bookshelves, providing an ideal retreat or workspace. The rear extension reveals a light-filled open-plan living zone, anchored by a statement kitchen featuring Tasmanian blackbutt and porcelain benchtops, a 900mm Belling oven with three ovens and a grill, an integrated AEG dishwasher, and a well-designed pantry with extensive storage. The adjoining family and dining areas open beautifully to the outdoor entertaining space, where a vine-covered Merbau timber deck provides a tranquil setting for gatherings. Everyday comfort is ensured with ducted air conditioning, split systems, and ducted heating in the extension. The home also includes a European-style laundry, a modern bathroom with walk-in shower and freestanding bath, and a separate powder room for guests. Beyond the home, the large established garden is a private oasis, with meandering paths, mature trees, nine raised vegetable tubs, an irrigation system, and a designated firepit area. A double garage provides excellent storage, complemented by old sheds perfect for additional garden or tool storage. There’s also a productive orchard with a mix of fruit and nut trees, plus a charming hen house for those seeking a touch of country self-sufficiency. Down below, the original cellar maintains a consistent 15-degree temperature, ideal for wine enthusiasts or for storing preserves, a nod to the home’s authentic heritage and thoughtful design. The property spans a rare double block held on two titles, offering outstanding flexibility to build a second dwelling, subdivide and sell one block, redevelop, or simply enjoy the space as is.
