The Brief: Welcome to 'Hillview'
Nestled amongst picturesque surroundings on a quiet leafy street, this large family home bursts at the seams with modern flair and old-world charm. It is ideal for a permanent family or a weekend escape in the sought-after Loch Village. Set on almost half an acre and backing onto a beautiful creek, properties of this calibre and in this location are rare.
A perfect blend of period character and modern functionality, the original section of the home features two king-size bedrooms (one with built-in robes) plus a third double bedroom, all serviced by the central family bathroom with a large shower, double vanity, and separate bath.
The rest of the home features a huge elevated lounge that steps down to the open-plan living area with a wood-burning fire, a modern kitchen, plenty of storage, a country oven, and a large dining area. Expansive windows frame the beautiful trees and hills beyond offering views from every angle, with plenty of space for the entire family to enjoy. The balcony off the upper lounge is also a lovely space to sit with your morning coffee and observe the native bird life.
The modern functional kitchen features a 900mm upright gas stove with an electric oven, dishwasher and farmhouse sink overlooking the ample dining space. Venture down the spiral staircase to discover an additional rumpus area, perfect for a teenager's hangout.
The downstairs also features access to the garage, a second toilet, and mud room/laundry, leading out to the back garden for added convenience.
You'll love the inside of this home, but there is also so much to love about the outside of this property.
Entertaining is easy under the large covered alfresco area, or you might enjoy a few drinks in the rustic barn with an original brick fireplace to keep you cozy in winter. There is a 6m x 9m ‘man cave’ with an impressive feature wall, another 7m x 3m garden shed for extra storage, a wood shed, an animal pen and an oversized double garage. Enjoy fresh-cut flowers from the cottage or rose garden and create your idyllic forest glen by the creek.
This home is less than a minute's walk from the picturesque centre of Loch Village, offering a range of restaurants, cafes and shops to enjoy. Experience gin tasting at the Loch Gin Distillery and immerse yourself in the local art hub at On Clarence. It is approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes from Melbourne, 1 hour and 15 minutes from Bayside, 30 minutes from Leongatha, 25 minutes from the beaches of Inverloch and only 15 minutes from Korumburra.
With the whole of South Gippsland on offer to explore, this is the perfect 'treechange' your family has been seeking.
