Bendigo 11 Rowan Street
Mandalay circa 1890 - magnificent heritage home. Offers luxury period living with a pool, studio and garage with rear lane entry.
A stately red-brick heritage home is on offer, providing outstanding family living in a prestigious Bendigo locale. Situated in the historically significant Rowan Street precinct, the 4-bedroom home is just steps to View Street, with easy access to the Queen Elizabeth Oval, the renowned Bendigo Art Gallery, the Capital Theatre, Rosalind Park and Bendigo's best shopping and dining.
This dignified home contains original period features, including high, ornate ceilings, decorative cornices and architraves, stained glass and sash windows and multiple original fireplaces. Various improvements and updates have been made over the years to keep this grand old residence up to date – a bright white kitchen and luxe bathroom adds a touch of modern luxury. Perfectly set for further restoration, there is potential to highlight and further update the stunning period characteristics.
On the ground level, discover a beautiful formal lounge room and large study to the front of the home – either could easily be converted into a further generous bedroom. The open-plan kitchen, living and dining room (with built-in shelving) are also found downstairs and lead to a lovely deck that overlooks the sparkling Guesli pool. A laundry and separate powder room complete the downstairs floorplan.
Upstairs are the 4 substantial bedrooms (with heritage features and built-in robes), an opulent family bathroom with a separate powder room, and the upper-level balcony that overlooks Rowan Street.
Outside, manicured, landscaped gardens feature in the front and rear, with established fruit trees as a highlight. Further premium inclusions of this unique property are an inground, tiled heated pool and spa, a wine cellar, a 5.5kW solar system, a double garage with generous storage space and a 13.5kWhs Tesla battery, plus a second private multipurpose brick outhouse. Currently a dedicated games room, this expansive space with a kitchenette, WC and shower could be converted to a guesthouse, home office, teen retreat or short-stay accommodation.
Primary and secondary schools are within walking distance of the address, including Camp Hill Primary School, Bendigo Senior Secondary College, Catherine McAuley College and Girton Grammar School.
Located in the heart of Bendigo and offering brilliant access to the best of Bendigo, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly magnificent piece of Bendigo history.
