1104 Calder Alternate Highway, Lockwood VIC 3551

Just on the outskirts of Bendigo, less than 10 minutes from Kangaroo Flat CBD and perfectly positioned for commuting to Melbourne is this fantastic lifestyle property on approximately 6 acres. Built in 1974 by the current owners, the 2-bedroom dwelling lends itself to some cosmetic upgrade if desired, or a full extension and complete renovation to create your dream home with plenty of privacy and space. There's no rush to do anything straight away though, with modern conveniences such as evaporative cooling and split system air-conditioning and an updated kitchen, there is plenty of scope to move straight in as is.

The bedrooms are reasonably sized, the main is 3.5m x 3.3m and both bedrooms have BIR's. The three-piece bathroom is in original condition, but serviceable as is, there's a spacious laundry and storage is sorted with a linen cupboard at the end of the main hallway.

The updated kitchen is very neat, with L-shaped laminate benchtop, heaps of storage – 4 standard cupboards plus 9 pot draws, plus a 600mm stainless steel Westinghouse wall oven and separate electric stovetop. The dining room adjoins the kitchen and has sliding doors directly out to the very spacious outdoor and undercover entertaining area. If extending is something that is on the cards for you, utilizing this space could be a fantastic option – or simply enjoy it as it is for now!

The property was set up for horses, and much of the infrastructure remains – including horse stables measuring approximately 6m x 12m that have 3 separate bays (2 concrete floor and one natural flooring). There's another main shed which is approximately 6m x 12m with sliding doors and 3 bays, plus an additional float shed behind it. The main house has its own carport as well. Additional features outside include a dam with 2.3 meg water right, and 4 large tanks that are all interconnected that pump throughout the property.

With it being so difficult to secure vacant land of this size in such a sought-after location, this property poses as a serious alternative to building from scratch. Inspections are available via private appointment, call Shane today to secure your timeslot as this opportunity is sure to be snapped up quickly!
