10A Bannerman Street

The over-hyped real estate adage, 'hidden away' definitely rings true for this standout property. Specifically designed to be unobtrusive from the street, it sits amid heritage homes in one of Bendigo's earliest streetscapes. The architect's brief was to design a minimalist home maximising the secluded site and the view, a feat E+ Architecture delivered with aplomb. An electric gate and bitumen driveway pave the way to the two-storey, three-bedroom home set on the low-maintenance lot where expanses of the creeping Baby Sunrose succulent brighten the landscape with candy pink flowers. The welcoming entry hall gives direct access to the double auto garage, a light-filled ground-floor living area, two robed bedrooms, a bathroom and powder room. Turning the corner at the top of the stairs and discovering the sweeping city and sky views is a jaw-dropping experience delivered by two walls of full-height, double-glazed windows. Dominated by the Sacred Heart Cathedral spire, with many other local landmark sites evident, it is a sight to behold, day or night. Unique honeycomb cellular blinds, opening top-down or bottom-up, provide privacy when required. The open living/dining area boasts high ceilings, white walls, and blonde Tasmanian oak floorboards adding abundant light - perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A built-in lowline wall unit and window seat contribute to the personality of the living area. Ideal for those who love to cook and entertain, the stylish kitchen features a striking backdrop of imported Spanish tiles, a spacious walk-in pantry, ample cabinetry, an induction cooktop and electric oven, a dishwasher, and a substantial stone-topped island with sleek pendant lighting overhead adding a stylish finish. The generous main bedroom features more full-height windows and spectacular views, a large walk-in robe/dressing room and an oversized ensuite with a free-standing bath, twin vanity basins, a walk-in shower, a WC., and a chute to the ground-floor laundry. Additional features include a private outdoor courtyard for alfresco dining or a soothing place to rest and reset at the end of the day. Recycled heating and cooling flow throughout, an under-stair storage room doubles as a wine cellar, while solar power and rainwater tanks add efficiency. Quietly positioned close to the hospital, View Street Arts precinct, recreation reserves, and the CBD, this contemporary property offers high-style living with privacy, security, and convenience, plus an unparalleled dose of wow factor.
