This beautiful 5 Acre property of cleared pasture defined by excellent shelter trees with post and rail fencing will impress from the first look. A long driveway accessed from a sealed road showcases a classic period style home with broad timber decked and balustraded verandahs secluded amongst mature specimen trees and colour filled gardens. Sympathetically renovated to retain the character of the original home, Rivendell displays all the hallmarks of attention to the finer detail. There are three bedrooms, the main bedroom complete with built in wardrobes, private retreat and ensuite bathroom; and a beautifully crafted eat in Country Style kitchen with Ilve cooking appliances, accessing to a separate dining room. The large study is an easy optional bedroom four. A very spacious living zone with solid fuel heater, and split air-conditioner, family bathroom, laundry and mudroom completes the home, with the bonus of a productive orchard and kitchen garden right at the back door. Outside a roll call of improvements include a professionally constructed 45mx20m (approx.) arena with post and rail perimeter; an adjacent 5 bay 55’ x 30’ Colorbond shed offers two lock up bays and three machinery bays – this would be an ideal stable block, with a feed area and brick paved wash bays located at the rear, all located within a broad, graveled hardstand. A lock up 30’ x 20’ Colorbond barn will provide secure workshop and storage space. For the equestrian enthusiast there are four post and rail paddocks and two day yards – these well sheltered paddocks are versatile to the livestock of your choice. Conveniently located for local shopping, dining and services at Gembrook and major shopping and service hubs at Pakenham and Berwick, with the delights of walking and riding trails, and winery cellar doors close by, this is a truly enviable lifestyle opportunity.
