At the top of the long gravel driveway is a substantial quality built home which blends old world charm with modern convenience and exquisite lake views. A spacious country-style eat-in kitchen with adjoining family room is the heart of the home, with Caesar stone bench tops, a cooking island and large double-glazed picture windows which frame the winter creek and waterfall. This is complemented by formal dining and an adjoining sitting room, which provides separation from the children if desired. Two built-in combustion fireplaces, one with an ornamental hand crafted mantle, add warmth and winter ambience to the central heating and air-conditioning. There are polished floorboards and quality fixtures and fittings throughout. The three upstairs bedrooms are generously proportioned, and a nursery/study and ensuite adjoin the king sized master bedroom. All have ample built-in robes. The downstairs bedroom has an adjacent heritage style bathroom with spa bath, ideal for guest accommodation. There is also a home office or fifth bedroom downstairs. The formal dining room opens onto the entertainment deck through French doors. The deck, with its wonderful view of the lake, is built around a mature Japanese Maple. Monitor the seasons in the leafy hills garden, with Elms, liquid ambers, Willows, Birch, Camellias and an orchard of changing hues. A versatile 8x6 metre fully carpeted and air conditioned rumpus room/teenage retreat or studio sits above a two car garage and workshop. The house is completely protected by an external security monitoring system. The garden is low maintenance, the entire property being automatically irrigated by a high-quality bore. The mains water bill for the house is negligible: there is an enviro-cycle sewerage system. The back yard has a veggie garden and chook shed. The orchard has cherry, peach, nectarine, plum, apple and chestnut trees. Relax in the gazebo next to the lake and watch the abundant bird-life, or a wait for the yabby trap. If it's location you are after then this house is ideal, being only minutes from both Aldgate and Stirling villages, and within walking distance of local primary and secondary schools. It's a 20 minute drive to the CBD and there is a bus stop at the end of the driveway. This private and secluded yet conveniently located home is unique. Surrounded by a forest of both deciduous and native trees, koalas, kookaburras and even the occasional kangaroo are your companions.
