2 Drovers Close, Maiden Gully VIC 3551

This is the original Maiden Gully dream; a classic Australian homestead set on more than an acre of park-like gardens. Add in an industrial-sized shed and a brilliant outdoor area, and you have all the elements to seize a longed-for lifestyle.

The early 1990s build is a solid brick veneer home, with all the spaces required of a growing family. There's been some welcome updates over the years, and plenty of scope to add your style.

Set well back from the road, behind a private garden and L-shaped driveway, the home has a full-length bull-nosed veranda, and a carport with roller door and storage space.

Inside, find a welcoming entrance hall, up to four bedrooms, two living areas and two bathrooms.

Three bedrooms have built-in robes and ceiling fans; the main has an ensuite. The fourth bedroom is currently used as a spacious study.

The carpeted loungeroom has an exposed brick hearth. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen zone has an updated vinyl plank floor. The U-shaped kitchen is in great condition, and features a wall oven, electric cooktop, rangehood, dishwasher and stone benches.

Ducted heating and cooling and ceiling fans throughout take care of the comfort.

The benefit of a 4200m2 block (Development STCA) is the chance to enjoy and outdoors lifestyle, which is enhanced here by an amazing outdoor entertainment space. It has a lofty ceiling height, overhead fans and an aggregate concrete floor.

There is garaging and carports for up to five vehicles, including the biggest of caravans. Tradespeople will be suitably impressed! For those bird enthusiasts there are many established aviaries also.

Be quick to view this value-plus property; wander the garden, explore the infrastructure, and be sure to bring the kids for a play on the wide-open lawn.
