Set on a manageable 9 acres this property is all about the lifestyle; relaxed, rural living with an emphasis on the outdoors and a self sufficient style of living. And the property is well set up to accommodate. The recently extended mud brick residence is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and lawn areas and provides comfortable family living. Open plan living and dining spaces extend from the galley style kitchen and the space is light and bright with big windows providing views from every angle. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of bench space, pantry, gas cooking and dishwasher. A further living space, perfect for a kid's play room, also has a wall of storage and fantastic views. Off the central hall are the four bedrooms, three with built in robes, and two of the bedrooms have sliding glass doors leading to the outside. The master bedroom is spacious and has its own en-suite and a central family bathroom services the other bedrooms. The living spaces continue outside with a large covered alfresco area with a magnificent open fire place and verandah to sit and enjoy the views. The home is kept comfortable with a solid fuel heater and split systems and there is ample storage throughout the home. Outside the property has two spring fed dams plus a 3 meg water right, a 4 bay garage with concrete and power, workshop, further shedding, multiple paddocks, good fencing and stock yard. And if that isn't enough there is also a greenhouse, chook run, vegetable garden, and small orchard. What makes this property even more attractive is that you are only 20 minutes form Bendigo, 15 minutes from Castlemaine and close to the major roads for travel to Melbourne. But it feels like your miles from anywhere. If a lifestyle change is what you're after then look no further.
