Last Listing description (December 2019)

Set high in the rugged granite hills of prestigious Harcourt North, this sensational 22 acre adventure wonderland boasts absolutely breathtaking views for as far as the eye can see, right across the entire Harcourt Valley out to Mount Franklin, Daylesford and beyond.

If you are the type of person that loves to immerse yourself in the sheer beauty of a rugged untouched landscape, exploring ancient rock formations, sitting high on a hill taking in a sea of views or kicking back on the verandah enjoying fantastic sunsets, then this amazing property will provide you with the ultimate weekend getaway or tree change that you have been looking for, far enough from the city to unwind but close enough to make for a very easy commute.

On the side of Mount Barker, accessed by a sealed road and situated in a quiet cul-de-sac, at the top of a meandering driveway, this rustic western red cedar ranch style home occupies a commanding position over the vast landscape and has been cleverly oriented to take full advantage of the panoramic views whilst blending in beautifully with its picturesque and peaceful natural surroundings.

Well suited to either permanent living or weekend accommodation this modest but stylish home features high timber lined, vaulted ceilings which create a sense of space, lovely floating timber floors, dado boards throughout and large picture windows to provide light filled rooms and bring the outside in.

The home offers very comfortable living with three bedrooms (two of which are fitted with built-in-robes) and features a spacious open plan design incorporating living, kitchen and dining. Year round comfort is catered for by reverse cycle air conditioning plus a Saxon wood heater for extra warmth and ambience.

The kitchen is a great space to create lovely dinners, modern and functional boasting stainless steel appliances including a Dishlex dishwasher, Blanco electric oven and a Bellini cooktop, along with ample cupboard and drawer space. The home is serviced by a central family bathroom with a separate bath, shower and vanity, and the toilet is conveniently located off the laundry.

The full length front verandah provides a wonderful shaded area to enjoy a BBQ and entertain guests or simply to kick back with a cuppa or your favourite ale as you ponder your dreams and aspirations and lose yourself in the captivating distant views.
The rear of the home also features a full length verandah, a low maintenance garden with a variety of plantings and shrubs, a stone retaining wall, a chook yard and small garden sheds. Ample water is provided with two poly-tanks totalling approximately 45,000 litres of rain water storage together with a large catchment dam equipped with a pressure pump. Vehicle storage comprises a double carport.

At the rear of the property is where the fun really begins. Once at the highest point, the views are to die for and will have you feeling like you're on top of the world. The massive granite boulders will have you intrigued as to how they were formed and how old they are. You will be at one with nature as you watch the magnificent wedge tail eagles which majestically occupy the skies in these parts. This area is an absolutely inspirational place to explore, photograph, paint or simply the best spot to read your favourite book.

This property offers an idyllic adventure playground for the whole family to enjoy whether riding a horse or simply allowing your children to explore to their hearts content and develop a true appreciation of the grandeur of nature.

Conveniently located just 10 minutes from the thriving hamlet of Harcourt, 15 minutes from historic Castlemaine and 20 minutes from the major regional city of Bendigo. Commuting to Tullamarine airport or the Melbourne fringe is a breeze in around 90 minutes by car or relax and catch the train into the Southern Cross Station in the city.
