Last Listing description (July 2024)

Nestled on 17 very private acres, your own slice of paradise is ready and waiting for you. Set amongst stands of native timber and with sweeping open grassland, the setting is positively idyllic.

Comprising a series of custom-built, interlocked shipping containers, this eco-friendly home's focus is relaxed, functional living with tranquil rural views from every room.

A sunny front deck leads to a free-flowing interior with a generous living and dining space filled with natural light courtesy of feature windows to maximise the home's northerly aspect. The stylish kitchen will delight cooks of every level. Sweeping stone benchtops and ample cabinetry support an induction cooktop and under-counter oven.

Three bedrooms sit either side of the family zone. The right-hand side wing hosts the premier suite with chic ensuite boasting floor to ceiling stone tiles, shower, bath and stone basin topped vanity. French doors open from the bedroom to a private deck. There's also a large laundry/storage room with built-in cabinetry and robes. The opposite wing hosts two further bedrooms and a beautifully styled and finished family bathroom with separate toilet.

The full extent of the eco-friendly focus is evident by way of the property's fully off-grid nature. Twenty solar panels and battery system deliver continuous power to run all appliances and includes a fully automatic backup generator. All windows and doors are double glazed and the strategic placement of highlight windows ensures natural light and airflow throughout, while full insulation, cosy woodfire heating and split-system cooling maintain thermal efficiency and personal comfort. Set away from the home a large, fully fitted out shed with amenities would make an excellent home office or studio.

Beyond the home, the versatile parcel of land offers plenty of opportunities for horses, or stock and features a large scenic dam. Additionally, there's abundant room for vegetable gardens, a chicken palace, fruit trees or a pool.

Convenient to Maldon and Castlemaine (10 minutes), Bendigo (25 minutes) and Melbourne (90 minutes) via the Calder Freeway or fast train from Castlemaine, this delightful lifestyle property with room to move, grow and personalise is the perfect weekend retreat or permanent home. As a work/life balance becomes ever more important now is the time to make your move.
