Last Listing description (November 2022)

"Croft Park", set on 6.8 acres* with its elegantly renovated heritage home, landscaped gardens and first class property improvements, is a superb country-lifestyle retreat we all aspire to own and enjoy.

Situated on the fringe of Sale, in the heart of Gippsland and within close proximity to Lake Wellington, the property is the perfect base for professionals working within the central Gippsland region, or for those seeking convenient access to water sport, fishing, horse riding and hiking activities.

An elegantly restored 4 bed heritage home circa 1900.

A superb barn style garage with parking for 6 vehicles and studio loft.
Paddocks with post & rail fencing ideally suited to horse agistment.
Landscaped gardens, natural dam and bore for additional water security.

On entry to the property, you're greeted with a driveway lined with established Australian native gums and defined with quality post and rail fencing. As you approach the home the entry widens to reveal the beautifully restored, circa Edwardian, return verandah home built with classic red-oxide brick and surrounded by landscaped cottage gardens.

EDWARDIAN AND ELEGANT

The romance of the classic Edwardian era remains, wrapped in an elegant and tasteful renovation with fixtures, fittings, soft furnishings and colour palette you'd expect in modern high-end accommodation.

Lovingly restored throughout, complete with period 11 foot high ceilings, ceiling roses, classic mantle pieces, inviting bay windows with ornate lead-light glass and Baltic pine polished timber floors, "Croft Park" oozes character and warmth.

Four bedrooms and three bathrooms provide ample accommodation and amenity for family and guests. The two front bedrooms feature imported European chandeliers, inviting floor to ceiling bay windows and double-door access to the return verandah. The master bedroom is complete with walk-in-robe and ensuite with dcor and fittings that work wonderfully with the Edwardian theme. A second bedroom is complete with its own walk-in-robe and ensuite upgraded to equally impressive standard.

Living zones include a formal lounge with open fireplace and floor to floor to ceiling windows, a cosy sitting room featuring a stained glass bay window overlooking the gardens, old tennis court and front paddock. The sitting room also includes a wrought iron wood-fired stove that drives the hydronic heating throughout the home. A library / study provides peaceful sanctuary.

The spacious open plan kitchen and dining area, with its northerly aspect, is filled with natural light and leads by way of double doors to the expansive timber deck and large separate studio and laundry at the rear of the home. The kitchen is a chef's and entertainer's delight, incorporating French Lacanche premium range triple-oven cooker and stovetop, Lacanche overhead exhaust fan and two built in 90cm Fisher and Paykel dishwashers. Fixtures and fittings throughout the kitchen area are first class and include Perrin and Rowe English tapware, quality cabinetry and finished with a Carrara marble island bench.

THE BARN AND STUDIO

The dual level, 3-bay barn at the rear of the home is constructed of steel and concrete and clad with timber. The ground level serves as a workshop and secure storage of vehicles. The cathedral ceiling second level is the perfect artist's studio, home office or teenager's retreat.

THE LAND

At 6.8 acres* there's enough (but not too much) land to enjoy for a myriad of pursuits.

The ornamental dam to the rear of the home is a feature of the gardens that not only attracts the eye of the beholder but also the attention of local native bird life. From the expansive rear deck, the northerly aspect across the dam and gardens beyond, is a delightful spot where you'll spend time unwinding with family and friends. To your left, remnants of the old "Croft Park" tennis court remain, and a restoration program could bring the court back to life, perhaps as a multi-purpose sports court incorporating other disciplines to keep the family and guests occupied.

The front showcase paddock is perfect for the agistment of horses, or prize breeding livestock and is cut to rounds of hay annually.

If horse and/or pony riding is your sport of choice, there's plenty of additional scope for full size sand arena. If space for the yacht, fishing craft or caravan is required, again there's plenty of room to securely store the equipment.

ADDITIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Additional external infrastructure includes old stables with 4 distinct bays for horses / ponies.

A 6 bay machinery shed / hay shed sits alongside and is completed with a secure lock up tack room / storage room. The machinery shed is powered and houses the property's Puretec water filtration system. A new 125,000* litre Pioneer water tank and electric bore provides ample water security for the property.
