Last Listing description (August 2020)

Do you dream of the good life? Do you imagine kids running and playing outside in the fresh air, or exploring the banks of a tree lined creek? Maybe you just long for the peace and privacy reserved exclusively for open spaces and natural settings. You can live that dream in style on this property, in one of the most immaculately kept homes you will ever see. You would never guess you're just 2.5 kilometres from town!

This home has been craftsman built to exacting standards to ensure the highest degree of quality. Every facet has been carefully selected to seamlessly merge modern convenience with the charm of rustic character and appeal of classic elegance, creating a timeless residence, absolutely worthy of the houseproud, amidst a lovely garden with wonderful stone features and rustic ornamental farm ware, such as a splendid horse drawn wagon, considered a part of the garden as it contributes to the authenticity of this serene retreat.

Guests are welcomed into the foyer through a four panelled door with sidelights, to find their expectations not only met, but exceeded. This home has all the extra features and finishing touches you could ever hope for. Nine foot ceilings adorned with patterned cornice, large picture windows framed with high quality drapes and valances, or blinds and pelmets over deep window sills, and high skirting boards abutting excellent floor coverings.

All four bedrooms have built-in-robes and as with the rest of the home, offer tranquil views. Three of the four are serviced by a traditional three piece bathroom, with deluxe gold tapware, and a separate toilet, while the master bedroom has a lovely three piece ensuite with dado boards. The wet areas are pristine and white though softened with gracious traditional fixtures and fittings.

From the ensuite you can directly access the garage, a very clever design feature as the bathroom facilities are available without walking through the house. The garage itself is excellent with two remote roller doors on the front and another on the side so that 3 cars can be housed and used without disturbing each other. It is also complemented by a shed at the rear of the property. A very unique asset in the garage is a spring loaded drop down ladder for extra storage in the roof cavity.

A spacious sunlit formal lounge adjoins the stunning open plan living area. This home definitely has the "Wow" factor but is also supremely functional. Ducted heating and refrigerative cooling throughout the home ensures your families comfort. And the kitchen - well the kitchen is straight from the pages of a magazine! A ceramic sink is installed atop Beadboard cabinetry furnished with wrought iron twist handles, providing ample drawer and cupboard space, and you will thoroughly enjoy exercising you culinary skills with the use of a magnificent black Falcon double oven.

As lovely as the home is, French doors tempt you out into a large undercover entertaining area encompassed in shade-cloth blinds in guide rails so you can chose the level and direction of weather protection when needed, or simply leave them up to completely immerse yourself in the blissful surrounding where a moat-like man made creek delivers the overflow from two tanks, totalling 45,000L of rainwater storage, to the dam, which is also the catchment for a 3 meg water right.

The landscaped creek travels along a rockery garden with colourful native plants like Copper Glow Tea Tree, Mini Cog Wattle and Birthday Candle Miniature Banksia to attract such birdlife as Blue Wrens and Red Brows. You need only be here a few minutes to encounter these sweet little visitors.

Further into the securely fenced backyard you will find a large dog run which would be suitable for chooks if you would like your own egg supply. This is directly in front of the veggie garden with raised beds which has proven very productive for home grown cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, rhubarb, garlic, shallots, silver beet etcetera.

Beyond the house paddock a rear paddock is ideal for a pony or some other stock if you prefer. Picturesque Emu Creek forms the rear boundary, near which a shed has been erected. Whilst having great potential as a mancave, or as a versatile shelter for a camp style evening, the shed is large enough to house a caravan and tractor.

Surrounded by all this natural beauty it is such a pleasant surprise when you want the convenience of town, to find yourself just 3 minutes from the shops at ever popular Strathfieldsaye, with amenities including a supermarket, newsagency, post office and specialty shops, medical practice and veterinary clinic, childcare centre, kindergarten, public and private primary schools, excellent new sporting facilities and Braidies Tavern for a great night out and a lovely meal. For anything more it's just 15 minutes to Bendigo's CBD, rich with arts, architecture and a wonderful cafe culture, or 90 minutes to the Melbourne fringe.
