People who love horses have some really specific needs for the place they will call home. It is all about the infrastructure, property size and location, with an easily maintained home to eat and sleep in, so you can spend as much time as possible on the important stuff, which of course is everything equine.
If this sounds like you and you see yourself on 13 picturesque acres in one of Bendigo's most highly regarded lifestyle areas, where everything is neat as a pin and already customised for horses, where a very pretty little home has a really beautiful country outlook, then you really should put this property at the top of your list of places to inspect.
Let's start with the things that matter. The land is gently undulating, a pleasure to ride on, and just over 13 acres divided into four well fenced paddocks. A tree lined seasonal creek is pretty as a picture and helps with the freshness and greening of the property. A big 'must have' is the large 80m x 30m purpose built equestrian sand arena, accompanied by a wash bay, two stables in the one shed with power and lights, a feed storage area, a tack room and open shelter. A separate paddock also has a shelter / stable providing convenient options for the equine enthusiast.
Vehicle storage is catered for with a long highset shed that has an open ended machinery shed / hayshed at one end, in the middle there are four bays with concrete floor, power, lights and sliding doors ideal for a float, caravan, boat, or a great storage and workspace for a project collectible car. At the end closest to the home, a double carport with a wall of climbing roses creates a cool shady place to park and a very pretty backdrop for the nearby entertaining area.
The outdoor entertaining area itself is one of the most inviting you will find, circular brick paving and a steel wood-fired pizza oven, are simply gorgeous under the pergola draped in Wisteria. This, or the two full length verandahs on the home, are absolutely wonderful places to kick back and take in the beautiful gardens and serene surroundings.
While this cute little home is of a modest size, the floorplan makes best use of the space so it feels very comfortable. The kitchen dining and lounge are separate zones that adjoin each other openly. The temperature is easily kept comfortable with a freestanding solid fuel heater and reverse cycle split system. It is primarily light and bright with white walls and lots of windows letting in the natural light and the lovely country views. Neutral toned cabinetry and composite stone benchtops are gently on the eye and allow the space to flow. A deep red glass splashback adds interest and beauty.
The kitchen has been remodelled with the supreme convenience of a drawer system, soft close of course, including the space under an island bench, which doubles as a breakfast bar. Stainless steel appliances include a dishwasher, gas cooktop and wall oven. The oven and microwave hutch are at an easy height for serving.
Two of the three bedrooms have built-in-robes, each with a mirror door, the third is currently in use as a study. The bathroom and laundry facilities are combined in one room with a vanity, shower with a lift down sprayer, and laundry basin. It has been tastefully modernised and very importantly, the loo has been kept separate.
Other noteworthy attributes of the home and property are a 25 panel 5kw solar system, several water storage tanks with a capacity of around 85,000 litres, good dog-yards with a kennel, landscaped gardens, even your own small orchard. And one more thing that may be very important for your convenience, is that all this is only 15 minutes from Bendigo's thriving CBD.
