Harmony Way is certainly a fitting street name for this tranquil 17-acre lifestyle property at the foot of Mount Alexander, where streams flow, native bird life is abundant and a lake with resident ducks and water hens is your vista from the loungeroom. The main residence, one of the last in the area to be constructed of granite, features a wide country style wrap around veranda, promoting outdoor dining and relaxation. Stepping through the beautiful leadlight front door, it becomes apparent the vendors have a love for the charms of yesteryear. High ceilings, bay windows, decorative cornice and leadlight glass have been seamlessly incorporated into the design. To the left of the wide hallway, there is a formal sitting room lined with dado boards. To the right, the spacious lounge with woodfire and feature stone work flows to the dining area and then the large country style kitchen. The Everhot slow combustion oven, fabulous bench and storage space and a deep pantry are noteworthy features. Three carpeted bedrooms, the master with dual access to the family bathroom, are privately located beyond the rear reception area. Two toilets, a laundry and deep linen cupboards cater for family living. A charming two-storey granite cottage with a bedroom, living area and bathroom is situated close to the main residence, providing the next owners with a fabulous opportunity to generate holiday or long-term rental income (STCA). A further granite studio provides additional recreational space. The surrounds are a beautiful blend of established gardens, towering gums, lush lawn areas, raised vegetable beds and productive fruit trees; apples, figs, peaches and even a mature pistachio grove. Eight acres of mature Box Ironbark also offers additional revenue potential. Additional features include; 6 water tanks holding 40,000 gallons (in 40 years, the residents have never been short of water), 6 solar panels (with 5.5-watt inverter), undercover carport and large hay shed. This incredible lifestyle property enjoys total seclusion and privacy yet is only a short drive to both Castlemaine and Harcourt, (Castlemaine linked with the V/Line train services connecting you directly to Melbourne). The time has come to pass this unique property onto a new family to enjoy all it has to offer.
