Elegance on Edward

6 Edward Street will capture the hearts of those who appreciate cottage charm with modern additions. Having been updated with contemporary conveniences, this Victorian cottage has been brought into the modern era. Set on a spacious 1200sqm block with handy double gate access to the back of the property via the service lane adjacent to Echuca Road. This beautiful home benefits from being completely renovated - restumped, rewired, replastered, repainted, new mahogany stained Baltic pine floorboards and new spouting. The kitchen and bathroom have also been stylishly transformed.

The street appeal is a delightful display of carefully curated flower gardens, roses, trees and shrubs. The garden view can be enjoyed from the front verandah. The classic hallway entry is warm and welcoming and leads through to the fabulous open plan living area, centrally located in the home and consists of the lounge, dining, kitchen and study nook.

The lounge has a three north facing double hung windows, a gas log fire in the original fireplace and a split system. The kitchen has been completely refitted with light coloured cabinetry and has abundant bench space and storage. You’ll be impressed with the quality Miele appliances - dishwasher, 600mm electric oven, 4 burner gas cooktop and rangehood.

There are two large bedrooms at the front of the home, with one having a built-in robe, split system and ceiling fan. The remaining two bedrooms are located at the back of the house, the largest of the two has a huge walk-in robe and ceiling fan. The family bathroom contains a 1200mm x 900mm shower, vanity, toilet and washing machine. There’s the added bonus of a small second bathroom across the hall, which has shower, basin and toilet.

Temperature control is taken care of with ducted evaporative air conditioning, ceiling fans, two split systems and a gas log heater. There’s the added benefit of electric roll down security blinds on the north and western side for security and keeping the temperatures down in summer. The windows are dressed with quality holland blinds throughout.

The large covered outdoor entertaining area is conveniently accessed from the sliding door near the kitchen and features a ceiling fan, a brick BBQ cooking area and an outdoor sink.
The yard is a gardeners’ paradise and is perfect play area for children and pets. There's a 6m x 8m Colorbond shed with concrete floor. There’s also a covered storage area, which doubles as a workshop area. Adjoining is a magnificent shade house that plays host to the owner’s impressive plant nursery.
