Nestled on twenty acres with views across to the northern Macedon Ranges, this architecturally designed home harnesses the elements to create a low impact passive residence that provides the peace and privacy perfect for long afternoons on the terrace with family and friends. With a North facing orientation, double glazed windows, large eaves, excellent insulation throughout and off-grid solar, the home is both environmentally and financially efficient. The heart of the home is the Esse Stove which not only ensures a cosy atmosphere, but also provides exceptional cooking facilities, hydronic heating, and boosts the solar hot water system for year-round hot water.
Externally the home combines a simple skillion roof with visually robust materials of cement block and battened fibre cement to ensure the natural surrounds are the hero, whilst also being BAL 12.5 (Bushfire) compliant.
From the moment you step inside, this home delivers. The windows in the large open plan kitchen, dining and living area frame the endless undulating pastures and connect you to the outdoor entertaining area with a built-in fire pit. The polished concrete floor and feature plywood ceiling flow from the main living area into a second, cozy living area and down the hall to three large north-facing bedrooms, all with hydronic heating and built in robes, a large laundry/utility room and a well-appointed bathroom.
With reliable wireless NBN, the home is very much connected with the real world for those times that you want or need to be.
The property has ample water with 50,000 litres of rainwater which supplies the home, a large dam and a bore. Adjoining state forest on two boundaries offers a perfect base for bushwalks and bird watching.
The picturesque Campaspe River and Lake Eppalock are at your doorstep, the perfect spot for a summer swim, water sports, boating, fishing or camping. Located just outside of Redesdale with its famous bluestone pub, and within 90 minutes of Melbourne its the centre point between three main towns: Kyneton (renowned cafs, restaurants, specialised shops and fast rail into Melbourne), Bendigo (a thriving business hub, outstanding health facilities and shopping precinct) and Heathcote (with vineyards, wineries and boutique shops).
The possibilities of this property are endless. Whether it is a place to call home, an escape from the city, a small permaculture adventure or the perfect Airbnb opportunity, this home will not fail to impress.
