Set atop a private driveway is this delightful surprise - a quaint and charming weatherboard home set amongst picturesque gardens and designed for those looking to escape to a private sanctuary. The use of natural products is a feature of this home from its established gardens and stone paths (there's plenty to explore) through to recycled timber kitchen and vine covered timber pergola. Three decked entertaining areas provide an array of options when hosting friends or family while the fully insulated studio complete with workbench and sink is ideal for artist or hobbyist. Large double-glazed timber framed glass doors and windows allow an abundance of natural light and pleasant garden views to fill the home. Adding to the energy efficiency of the home - under floor, wall and ceiling insulation and a split system heating/cooling unit when required. In all there are 3 bedrooms plus study, open lounge, kitchen with modern appliances, family bathroom and separate shower room. There is a secure brick double garage for vehicle storage plus room for a third vehicle under a carport beside the studio. Set behind an appealing straw bale rendered wall, the privacy and seclusion of this property is a rare find when considering the superb location only 2kms to the heart of Bendigo.
