18 Cook Road, Drouin VIC 3818

This home of 37 years has raised one family and is ready for the next.

Situated on the fringe of town with easy access to Freeway and both Longwarry and Drouin train stations, the attractive, 4 bedroom, north-facing, quality Merv Deppler-built home is set among striking, mature gardens.

While parts of the house are in original condition, others are more contemporary and the roof supports 3.5kw solar electricity panels. The 10year-old extension with floor-to-ceiling, double-glazed windows opens onto a deck with an outlook of gardens and distant mountains. The original large practical kitchen is at the heart of the home and offers ample bench space, storage and walk-in pantry.

4 spacious robed bedrooms with ensuite to master, spacious lounge and open plan family / meals area. Out the back door an office or rumpus room is ideal for those working from home. Ample shedding is provided by way of 2 separate garages both with concrete flooring and power with undercover carparking for at least 4 cars.

Long gone the tree houses, flying foxes and skateboard ramps- all built in the multiple garages and workshops- but the space remains. Three quarters of an acre - a natural playground for family, pets, chooks and hobbies. Nearby, magnificent McGlone Rd trees, the Golden Whistler Reserve and Drouin Golf Course are within walking distance, and as the new housing areas approach so will educational (St Paul's Anglican Grammar) and new recreational facilities
