Properties such as this don't come to market often, so don't miss this brilliant opportunity to purchase your dream retreat in tightly held Mandurang. Set on 2.85 acres, with a lake-like dam, stunning pool and fully equipped outdoor entertaining space, this picturesque property backs onto One Tree Hill National Park. Set to the back of the land, to take in spectacular views, the sandstone residence is a timeless family home with modern features throughout. Feature lead light glass and a bespoke double-sided stone fireplace add to the warmth and character of the home. A long driveway to the left of the property takes you to the house and a huge garage. The garage is set up with storage and an integrated multi-purpose workshop – the perfect 'man-cave', home office, gym or kids' retreat, plus the expansive space has power plus a split system for heating and cooling. The home has a wrap around bull-nose verandah, idea for kicking back beneath and enjoying a morning coffee or golden hour drink at the end of the day. Inside, the master suite with walk-in robe and ensuite are situated at the front left of the home, while the living and space with the feature fireplace is located opposite. Fully updated kitchen is bright and light and includes new Miele induction cooktop, electric oven and dishwasher and an integrated microwave. Stone benchtops with waterfall edges and fresh white cabinetry add a touch of sophistication. The dining and second living space flow on from the kitchen and lead to the remaining two bedrooms with built-in robes, a large family bathroom with freestanding bath and laundry. Outside you'll find a newly added entertainer's alfresco area with built-in BBQ, pizza oven, benchtops and fridges. The exquisite salt-chlorinated pool is solar heated and has shade sails for enjoyable swimming any time of the day. Located just a few minutes to Spring Gully or Strathfieldsaye, and only 10 minutes to Bendigo CBD's shopping, dining and entertainment, this is a great location to get away from it all but still have everything within easy reach. With so much land and space the options are endless, the kids can safely roam the property enjoying everything on offer, or if you're downsizing you can just sit back and enjoy your exclusive, tranquil little wedge of Mandurang for many years to come. Additional features include: • 6 meg water right • 5kw solar panels • Ducted heating and cooling
