4 Mill Street, Maldon, Vic 3463

With pretty views over Long Gully and across to Mt Tarrangower, this characterful country cottage is the perfect permanent home or weekend retreat. Sitting on 1,160 sqm across two titles of 450 sqm and 710 sqm respectively, the astute buyer has a wealth of options including retaining the property as is and enjoying the additional space; building a second home or holiday rental STCA, or selling the block and reap the financial rewards.

From the double-fronted entrance and full-length front verandah with decorative timber balustrade you can sit back, relax and enjoy the ambiance. The home opens to a spacious interior with plenty of period detail including floorboards throughout, some timber-lined ceilings, dado paneling, coloured glass internal doors and large sash windows through which natural light fills all the rooms all day long. Add the crisp, white palette and you have an interior that is light, bright yet warm and inviting.

There’s a spacious lounge room and beyond, a country kitchen with timber cabinetry, shelving and electric cooker. Dine in or step out to the rear verandah where you can relax and dine alfresco or down a few steps to the brick-paved outdoor area surrounded by mature trees and shrubbery. Two bedrooms, each with built-in robes share a large, combined bathroom/laundry with linen press and external access. Set away from the home, a 5.4m x 7.4m shed is the perfect workshop, mancave or hobby space. A single carport is attached to the shed as is a woodshed. A stone garden shed has plenty of space for your garden tools. Additional features include fresh internal and external paintwork, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, working open fireplace with decorative mantle, ceiling fans and all town services.

With Crown Land on two sides, local walking tracks to South German Dam at your doorstep and with the town centre an easy 1km walk, the peace and tranquility this lovely offering delivers will appeal to buyers searching for a low-maintenance, versatile property to enjoy a relaxed rural lifestyle with the option to develop the second title to your advantage. It’s all about the good life.
