167 Zig Zag Rd Mount Macedon really is the great escape, within easy reach of Melbourne.
Set on approximately 23 private acres of tree-lined, rolling hills and lush pastures, with the rear boundary being Macedon Ranges State Forest. Water lilies line the trout-stocked, spring fed lake, which provides an endless supply of quality water. The meandering drive, lined with post and rail fencing leads to a spacious, modern 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom residence. Four separate living areas let everyone have their own space. The Master Retreat has wraparound views to Mt Aitkin and overlooks the changing colours of the formal garden. An open plan family room adjoins a dining area designed to capture winter sun. The slow combustion wood fire, quality curtains and double glazing throughout the house, provide year round energy efficient living. The cleverly designed gourmet kitchen, with stone benchtops and quality appliances, allows seamless entertaining. Huge stacker doors span out to the north facing Alfresco and courtyard, with embracing views over the lake. A spiral staircase then links two outdoor dining areas. Mature English gardens surround the home and provide sanctuaries for all seasons. The surrounding forest provides an abundance of tracks ideal for horse, trailbike, mountain bike and walking enthusiasts. This property needs to be seen to be appreciated.
Extra features: 5 post and rail paddocks with shade trees. Large shed with mezzanine, external extra storage, concrete floor, lights and hot water. 60X30 metre, flood lit, flat area suitable for riding arena, tennis court, surplus parking.
