Opportunities to become the custodian of an iconic Beechworth property are few and far between, but today, such a chance awaits. Originally built in 1926, this remarkable residence, formerly the Rectory for the adjacent Anglican Church, stands proudly on approximately 1500sqm of prime land, just 100m from central Beechworth via a sealed pathway. Now entering its 100th year, this home showcases timeless external craftsmanship with its red brick exterior, solid granite foundations, and iron roof. Step through the grand, ornate portico into a welcoming foyer adorned with stained-glass windows. The adjacent lounge, warmed by a wood combustion heater, flows seamlessly into a formal dining area with split-system air conditioning. The charming kitchen offers ample storage, a walk-in pantry, electric cooking, and access to a delightful breakfast room. With up to five bedrooms, this home offers versatility and is perfect for family living, home offices, or creative workspaces. A centrally located bathroom features a shower, vanity, and toilet, while one of the bedrooms (or a potential office) includes built-in storage, a wood heater, a split system, and independent access from the front porch. A spacious laundry at the rear leads directly to the beautifully maintained gardens. Adding to its character, a sunroom along the western side provides a peaceful retreat. High pressed-metal ceilings feature throughout the home, as do large windows and light-filled living areas. Outside, the property boasts expansive established gardens, under-house storage, exposed granite foundations, and a single carport for off-street parking. Solar panels and an electric hot water system enhance efficiency. For those seeking a central Beechworth home brimming with history, charm, and endless possibilities, including potential subdivision or further development (STCA)-this is an opportunity not to be missed.
