9 Susan Street, Ironbark, VIC, 3550, Australia

A genuinely brilliant entry to market that is ready to live in, but prime for someone wanting to tackle a cosmetic renovation over time. It’s a sturdy cream-bricker with some beautiful original features, such as the large colonial style windows across the front and polished floorboards throughout. It’s very liveable as is, and just waiting for someone to bring the old beauty to full life again.

The entry to the home leads you to a large and light-filled space, with the lounge and adjacent dining areas – featuring a magnificent stone chimney and mantle. There’s plenty of space here for the family, and an open plan kitchen and dining area allows for easy entertaining.

The kitchen itself its very much serviceable as it sits, with more than enough bench space and plenty of storage. There’s a freestanding stainless steel oven and gas cooktop. The skylight helps further brighten this space, as does the glass sliding doors – these lead to a fantastic undercover entertaining area which spans the width of the home.

Throughout the rest of the home internally, you’ll find three good sized bedrooms, two of which have built in robes and the master with a built in dresser as well. The larger of the two bedrooms facing north-east benefit from the beautiful colonial style windows which bring loads of light and warmth.

The bathroom has had some updates, allowing plenty more use before you’d need to consider any improvements. There’s a standard size shower, a bath, single vanity and overhead cabinetry with mirrored door. The laundry carries on this theme, presenting as a practical space that is neat enough to leave as is.

Outside, there’s an abundance of space and plenty of accommodation for cars, trailers or caravans. There’s a single carport attached to the home, then a large double carport at the rear of the property that could be accessed via the trail if required – otherwise, it’s a fantastic entertaining area that bridges the two sheds. One of the sheds was utilised as a studio/shopfront previously and is lined throughout, and measures at a massive 9m x 8.5m. There is the ability to get the double panel door back in place fairly easily if you want to utilise the shed for parking space again, or leave it as is if it’s a studio or entertaining area you’re looking for.

The property is positioned in the increasingly popular suburb of Ironbark, at the doorstep of the historic Victoria Hill mining site, with the Gold Mines Hotel also right there. It’s a quick drive into the Bendigo CBD and walking distance to Spotlight and surrounding retail stores.
