St Albans

Beyond the allure of a charming period facade lies this 1880's period home.

Occupying a generous 1,943 sqm (approx.) land parcel with an impressive street frontage, 1-3 Gravesend Street, Colac is a home that extends a welcoming embrace before you even step inside.

Situated on the fringe of Colac's central business district. Quiet, yet convenient and in walking distance to almost everything, including transport, shops, medical centres and COPACC. You can also benefit from the close proximity to walk to work or commute to Geelong and Melbourne easily by train.

The original charm of the property has not been lost with wrought iron lace work and wide verandas that keep the home cool in summer. A wide central hallway, polished floorboards, open fire places plus high ceilings are just a few of the features. You can also enjoy the warmth and sunshine from the north facing veranda that overlooks the private garden.

The home has been tastefully renovated with full ceiling insulation, a modern kitchen and bathroom with additional half ensuite to the main bedroom. An all-electric home, with reverse cycle air-conditioning and solar panels make the home quite inexpensive to run. Many extras include a workshop, studio, great storage, plus a water tank for garden use and undercover parking for 2 vehicles.
No heritage overlay opens up excellent opportunities for the new owner.
