Pindari - A 1930’s Woodend home of historical significance

For Sale by Expressions of Interest closing Thursday 12th December at 2pm (Unless sold prior)
“Why we like about the property” (agent perspective)
“Pindari” means ‘place on a hill’ and with views to Mount Macedon this is the perfect place to be.
With a sense of warmth and welcome this four-bedroom, two-bathroom home hosts many original features and is set on approximately 1.5 acres of glorious garden setting. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to secure a magnificent home steeped in local and national history. Designed by esteemed architects Oakley & Parkes who designed the Lodge in Canberra, Oakley & Parkes were one of the earliest architects to reflect the 1930’s Modernist movement in Melbourne. Records held at the Woodend Historical Society shows the brief was that the building be “constructed in the strongest and best manner” and it was. From the moment you open the gate into the property you know that this is a special estate. From the architraves to the ceiling roses, to the original woodwork features and fireplaces – this is a true beauty. There are many different aspects to Pindari that makes it charming yet totally usable and accessible for today’s living. Move in and enjoy or put your own touches to further enhance what Pindari is and can become – a home for generations. If you consider yourself someone who enjoys beautiful, historic homes and gardens then you might be the next custodian and become part of Pindari’s story. Located just 55 km north-west of Melbourne, Woodend has easy access to the Calder Freeway and Woodend Train Station connecting to Melbourne's metropolitan area, so commuting is easy.
“What the property has to offer” (property perspective)
Pindara has a lovely history of providing a warm and inviting home for everyone who has lived in this sublime residence. The architects designed Pindari for entertaining and freedom of movement and this is reflected in the wide doorways and hallway that seamlessly interconnects the rooms. Set on one level, the residence offers different living and dining zones, four spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a library and an expansive and long sunroom. The sunroom is a perfect retreat, light and perfect for relaxing in with a cup of tea or entertain. Original hardwood floors, bluestone porch piers and thick timber balustrades and multi-paned windows reflect the home's character.
The classic kitchen hosts the original Aga stove (updated to gas) and wooden plate racks.
The Butler’s pantry offers extra storage and convenience. The laundry provides easy access to outside. Heating in the home is provided by wood fires and central gas heating. The garden can only be described as spectacular. Framed by hedging, mature trees provide shade and privacy, the cedars and pin oaks are majestic. The rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, peonies, and magnolias are beautiful and complimented with a range of seasonal bulbs. Pindari is serviced by town water and rainwater tanks.
“What you love about the property” (vendor perspective)
This has been our home for over thirty years, and it has given us so much joy. The garden has been a wonderful pursuit over this time and has provided us with fruit, flowers and been a great distraction from everyday life. We have enjoyed living in Pindari as it has provided a quiet haven but is only moments to the Woodend township and commuting options to Melbourne, making living here easy.
