16 Gaffney Street

Sitting quietly on a generous 1169sqm (approx) corner allotment, this is the kind of home that offers something for everyone, space, flexibility, and comfort. A heated swimming pool, established native gardens and a covered alfresco area set the scene for long summer days, while ducted gas heating and quality year-round appointments ensure the home works just as well when the seasons turn. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone is the social hub of the home. A large kitchen bench, gas cooktop, wall oven, dishwasher and pantry cater for busy households, while sliding doors spill out to the alfresco overlooking the pool and rear garden, making entertaining as easy as it should be. The kitchen enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden, and the dining space looks out to the established front garden, lending the home a wonderful connection to its natural surrounds throughout. The main bedroom is well-sized and private, with built-in robes and an ensuite comprising a shower, vanity and separate toilet. Two further bedrooms, each with built-in robes, are serviced by a central bathroom with shower, bath and vanity. A highlight of the floorplan is the private second living space, complete with an adjoining fourth bedroom with built-in robe, an arrangement that works beautifully as a guest suite, teenage retreat or work-from-home sanctuary. Comfort and practicality are well covered: ducted gas heating, a gas wall heater, evaporative cooling and carpet underfoot throughout the bedrooms. Outside, a double carport, shed, water tank, and gravel pathways complement the wrap-around verandah that gives the home its welcoming street presence. The established native garden, private, mature and low-maintenance, screens the property beautifully from the street while giving the corner position a sense of real arrival. All of this is within easy reach of central Castlemaine, with its celebrated café culture, thriving arts scene, excellent schools, Botanical Gardens and direct train services to Melbourne. A home of genuine proportion and warmth, ready for its next family chapter.
