54 Simpson Street, Kyneton VIC 3444

Set on a magnificent allotment of just over 1,000sqm in one of the area's most sought after locations, this much loved home presents an increasingly rare opportunity. A substantial parcel of land, a sun filled north facing rear garden and enormous potential to create something truly special. Believed to have been built in the 1950s and held by the same family for more than 60 years, the home has a wonderful connection to Kyneton's past and retains charming reminders of its era, including original kitchen hardware and the character of a home that has evolved over generations. For renovators, there is plenty here to inspire. The home has recently undergone partial restumping with new concrete stumps, while its original character may be waiting to be rediscovered. Imagine uncovering and restoring the hardwood timber floors beneath the carpet, removing the existing cladding to reveal or reinstate traditional weatherboards, and enhancing the façade with period inspired details such as a beautiful return verandah. There is wonderful scope to celebrate the home's heritage while creating something fresh and entirely your own. The existing home offers three bedrooms, two with built in robes, a comfortable lounge with split system heating and cooling and gas heating, central kitchen, family bathroom and laundry with second toilet. At the rear, a light filled sunroom enjoys the prized northern aspect and looks across the expansive backyard. And it is here that the potential of this property really comes into its own. The substantial north facing rear garden provides an exceptional canvas for a renovation or extension, with ample room to imagine a beautiful contemporary kitchen, dining and living zone opening directly onto the garden while retaining the character and charm of the original home. Alternatively, the size of the allotment may appeal to those wishing to explore future subdivision or development possibilities, subject to council approval. Outside, a single garage is complemented by extensive shedding, providing valuable space for tradies, hobbyists, collectors or simply those who appreciate having plenty of room for storage. Positioned in a beautiful, wide and established street, this is a property where the location and land are every bit as compelling as the home itself. Renovate. Restore. Extend. Reimagine. After more than 60 years in the one family, this special property is ready for its next chapter.
