The Former Station Master's Residence Circa 1897
From the moment you arrive, the wrap around veranda warmly welcomes you home. It is the perfect place to enjoy a quiet morning coffee, basking in the sunshine while admiring the home's period façade and original stained glass feature window, gentle reminders of its rich heritage.
Inside, an immediate sense of warmth and charm unfolds. High ceilings, original detailing, polished timber floorboards and a carefully curated natural colour palette create an atmosphere that feels both elegant and inviting. Every corner reflects the care taken to preserve the home's character while elevating comfort for modern living.
The home offers three generous north facing bedrooms, each bathed in natural light and designed as peaceful retreats. The main bedroom is a refined sanctuary, complete with an elegant ensuite featuring timeless finishes and classic appeal. The second bedroom showcases a stunning ornate fireplace, a striking focal point that honours the home's origins. The third bedroom is equally inviting, with French doors opening gracefully onto the northern lawn, allowing seamless indoor outdoor living and an abundance of sunshine.
At the heart of the home lies an inviting open plan living, dining and kitchen domain where history and contemporary style blend effortlessly. The kitchen is the centrepiece, anchored by a substantial timber island bench that encourages gathering and connection. A striking Belling 900mm oven takes pride of place, perfectly positioned to overlook the living and dining areas so the cook is always part of the conversation.
The living zone radiates comfort, centred around a wood fire ideal for cosy winter evenings. A cleverly integrated study nook is tucked into the charming bay window, offering a peaceful workspace with generous natural light. Adjacent, the dining area feels intimate yet spacious, framed by original ceilings that continue throughout this impressive open space.
The main bathroom is generous in scale and elegantly appointed with a bath, shower, vanity and toilet. The tilework and selected finishes evoke refined country charm, perfectly complementing the home's heritage.
A large laundry and mudroom deliver everyday practicality without compromising on style, a welcome inclusion for modern family life.
Set on a substantial 1,058sqm allotment, the property is framed by established landscaped gardens that provide colour and structure throughout the seasons. Positioned privately behind a manicured hedge, the home enjoys a wonderful sense of seclusion while maintaining its strong street presence.
Multiple garden spaces invite quiet moments as the day unfolds, from sun drenched morning corners to peaceful afternoon retreats beneath established trees. An undercover BBQ area offers an ideal setting for entertaining, while a garden shed and separate studio or workshop provide flexibility for a variety of uses.
The generous landholding also presents exciting future potential for subdivision STCA, making this not only a charming residence but a considered long term investment.
Perfectly positioned, the home enjoys exceptional proximity to the thriving village of Woodend. Cafés, restaurants, shops and everyday conveniences are all within an easy five minute stroll, while the train station is just two minutes away, offering excellent connectivity.
Rich in character, layered in warmth and enhanced by careful renovation, The Former Station Master's Residence presents a rare opportunity to secure a significant piece of Woodend's history, restored with care and ready for its next chapter.
