Last Listing description (September 2022)

Unrivalled views, historic charm, modern convenience, and fabulous location what more could you want? Set on 4.28 hectares of rolling countryside with a beautiful view over the river valley towards Mt Buninyong, sits this elegant piece of history filled with modern comforts.

Built by the Learmonth Family at Learmonth in 1905, the classic homestead was moved to Napoleons in 1996. Carefully restored, it is filled with original elements including painted ceiling roses, hallway arches, and air vents, stained glass, polished floorboards, timber sash windows, a perfectly proportioned bathroom, and the original hearth for kitchen fire. The modern lighting is complementary to the period, retaining the character of the era.

With its own private forest, sloping land and a rich, lower dam, the property provides numerous opportunities to 'get away from it all'. There are no houses looking over your shoulder, plenty of space places to stretch out, fly a kite, meditate, kick the footy, ride a horse, grow vegetables, have a barbecue, or just doze in the sun.

With a pitched roof, and classic bullnose verandah wrapping around two sides, this is an elegant and inviting home. Stained glass panels in the front doorway allow dappled light to fill the gracious
hallway leading into the heart. High ceilings and timber floors add grace and warmth to this grand old lady.

The house is comprised of four bedrooms, the generous master complete with a wood heater. An open plan kitchen with built-in pantry, dining, and lounge area offers scope for entertaining as well as delivering room for a family to spread out. A family bathroom with bath, shower, toilet and vanity, and laundry with an additional toilet in laundry make this a family-friendly home.

A covered entertaining area is accessed from the dining room, providing a wonderful space to share the stunning views with friends and family as you share your meal. Additionally, separated from the main house by a vine-dressed breezeway, are two large, modern studios: one used for violin teaching and the other currently used as a pottery. The potential for these two studios is endless with possibilities being extra living space, AIR BNB (STCA), rumpus room or meditation room. Heating is supplied by a Lopi Liberty wood burner which warms the whole house, and a split system helps maintain a comfortable temperature all year long. Each studio has its own split system for ultimate comfort.

Throughout the grounds are several sitting areas which, depending on the time of year, are great places to sit with a coffee, enjoy the flowers, or absorb the view. The property is a haven for wildlife including a wide range of local and migratory birds, as well as kangaroos, echidnas, thousands of frogs, and wild ducks. Wherever you look there is something wonderful to see.

Other features of the home include:

* Double garage
* Two utility sheds
* Two chook sheds
* Two dams, one with an island
* Tank and town water
* Developed gardens in front and large fenced veggie gardens out the back
* Private small forest
* Yarrowee River frontage access

The location of this home is ideal, with ready access to Napoleons, Buninyong, Delacombe Town Centre, Midvale Shops, and central Ballarat. A range of educational facilities as well as the Ballarat Technology Park, all sit within a 10-minute drive from the property.

If you're looking for peace and privacy plus the opportunity to get back in touch with the natural world, this is the home for you. Spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and rainbows guaranteed! For more information and to book your private inspection contact Toby Tanis 0413 842 666
