89 Short Street

Tucked within Bendigo's tightly held Cathedral and Arts Precinct, this character-rich residence offers more than just a place to live-it's an exciting opportunity to restore, enhance, and create something truly special in one of the city's most admired pockets. Solidly built and steeped in history, the home's predominantly triple-brick construction (with double brick at the rear) reflects a bygone era of craftsmanship and enduring quality. Beyond the classic façade fronting Wattle Street, lies a wraparound veranda and a surprisingly generous interior, currently configured as a five-bedroom, two-bathroom home-each bedroom complete with its own open fireplace-offering exceptional space for growing families. A warm sense of nostalgia flows throughout, from the original ornate leadlight entrance addressing Wattle Street to the grand proportions within. There is exciting scope to further enhance the home's street presence by reopening the original front veranda, inviting in natural light and capturing views toward the iconic Sacred Heart Cathedral spire. At the heart of the home, the expansive living room impresses with decorative ceilings, graceful arched windows, an ornate marble fireplace and a striking architectural archway-an elegant foundation ready to be elevated even further with thoughtful updates. Set across two titles, the property presents remarkable flexibility. While the home is comfortable and functional as is, there is clear scope to modernise the kitchen, the two bathrooms and cosmetic finishes-providing the perfect canvas for buyers to add their own style, increase value, and truly make it their own over time. At the rear, convenient access via 89 Short Street leads to a double lock-up garage and workshop, adding practicality to the home's timeless appeal. Positioned just moments from the Bendigo CBD, quality schools, parks and cafés, this is a rare chance to secure a substantial home in a blue-chip location. Whether you're a family ready to create your forever home or an astute buyer seeking long-term upside, the potential here is undeniable. Homes of this scale, character and opportunity are seldom offered. Enquire today and unlock the future of this remarkable property.
