113 Gap Road, Riddells Creek VIC 3431

Claiming an idyllic lakeside setting on 5 acres (approx.) of mature gardens, this intriguing home brimming with history and character is being offered for the first time in nearly 20 years. Featured in Home Beautiful Magazine, the beautiful property is focused around a romantic and picturesque lake with its own island, two jetties, and stocked with Bass, Cod, and Golden Perch. The eclectic three bedroom home enjoys scenic views from every aspect, and features slate flooring, exposed timber ceiling beams, and expansive windows that bring the outdoors in. The original building hearkens back to the late 1940's and over the years it has been renovated with an eye for beauty while making practical modifications. The kitchen and dining areas are complete with solid timber benchtops, corrugated iron cabinetry, S/S Bosch dishwasher, and Italian Glem oven/stove. To the Eastern side of the home a generous sunken lounge with cathedral ceilings and wood-fuelled fireplace opens via a double set of French doors to gardens full of endless alfresco entertaining options including a pressed concrete pergola, fire pit area, and thoughtfully placed seating areas. Downstairs there are two double-sized bedrooms both fitted with built-in robes, as well as a slate bathroom. The upstairs mezzanine is a devoted master bedroom suite with its own balcony overlooking the lake, plus a walk-in robe and ensuite. There's also a detached private studio (study/office) on grounds - perfect for creative pursuits or use as an office/4th bedroom. Includes a 4-car powered garage with pot belly stove, garden shed, woodshed, chook pen, mudroom/laundry, panel wall heater, split system air conditioner, storage rooms, and more. All this in the stunning Macedon Ranges near esteemed wineries, natural wonders, country farmers markets, and Riddells Creek township with its primary school, VLine train station, shops, restaurants, and cafés.
