109 Maple Street

Architectural Warmth, Seclusion and Established Gardens Positioned on an expansive allotment of approximately 2,651sqm across two titles in one of Golden Square's most tightly held and character-filled pockets, 109 Maple Street - known as Narioka - delivers a lifestyle that feels wonderfully private, peaceful and immersed in nature, while remaining only minutes from the Bendigo CBD, Girton Grammar School, St John of God Hospital and everyday conveniences. Announced by an automatic gate with recycled brick pillars, and a winding brick driveway, the property immediately creates a sense of arrival. A generous set-back position sheltered by magnificent gums, plus crown land bordering one side of the block, ensures the home enjoys rare seclusion. The home's distinctive architectural presence nods to Bush Modernism; timeless red bricks, tiered rooflines and expansive timber decking working in harmony with the surrounding landscape. From every angle, the property evokes warmth, creativity and individuality, with the terraced gardens, winding pathways and layered outdoor spaces creating an atmosphere rarely found within such a central location. At the heart of the home, a light-filled atrium with a raked exposed timber ceiling and abundant indoor plants connects the living and bedroom zones, while deepening the connection between interior and garden. Clerestory windows, exposed beams and stucco wall detailing further enhance the sense of openness, light and architectural character. The formal living room, positioned beside the master bedroom, is bathed in beautiful morning light - a calm and inviting space complete with solid fuel heating and large surrounding windows that frame its leafy outlook. The northern-aspect open-plan kitchen, meals and family domain further benefits from a skylight and natural light throughout the day, creating a warm and practical hub for everyday living. Generous bench space and excellent storage are complemented by split system heating and cooling, plus a ceiling fan for year-round comfort. Accommodation is thoughtfully zoned. The privately positioned master suite offers a peaceful retreat complete with a large walk-in robe and modern ensuite, while three additional spacious bedrooms with walk-in or built-in robes and new wool carpets are serviced by a central family bathroom - ideal for growing families, guests or those working from home. Outside, the established grounds predominantly feature drought-tolerant natives, supported by an automatic irrigation system for easy maintenance and care. Olive trees and a dedicated fruit tree orchard sit alongside six wicking beds for vegetables, while a generous lawn area with an elevated outlook provides the perfect space for children to play. Multiple entertaining areas, expansive timber decking and beautifully terraced landscaping complete the property, which feels like a private sanctuary despite its central location. A substantial Colorbond shed that is ideal for a workshop, storage or hobby use, plus extensive off-street parking and solar panels round out a property designed for practical, sustainable living. Narioka presents a rare lifestyle opportunity - architectural individuality, exceptional privacy, established gardens and a wonderfully convenient location close to the CBD, schools and major medical precinct - all within one of Bendigo's most desirable inner-city pockets.
