For those who find themselves longing to enjoy the fresh air and freedom of a country lifestyle but also find that that luxury is cost exclusive, this wonderful property represents great value and a rare opportunity to secure an entry level lifestyle property in a sought after esteemed location suitable as a weekend getaway, or a liveable fixer-upper with great potential for value adding through improvement.
Being set on 30 acres means you will find yourself with a property that is small enough to be easily managed but big enough to provide a good buffer for all the privacy you could wish for, while the elevation guarantees you beautiful panoramic views.
The land in and of itself has rich fertile soil resulting in plenty of clover, with four dams, one of which has an electric pressure pump, a horse shelter and sand menage, cypress lined boundary, secure boundary fencing, a stock grid, and five paddocks plus the house yard you will find this property to be ideal for all forms of livestock.
The old farmhouse is nestled in an established country garden providing beauty, privacy and dappled shade. Two 5,000 gallon tanks take care of ample water storage for domestic use. The home has three bedrooms, two of which have built-in-robes, the bathroom that services these rooms has a shower over the bath, a vanity unit and toilet, while a second toilet is located off the laundry.
The kitchen is an original 50's styling and features a very pretty Stanley combustion stove with a working water jacket, for warmth and ambience a Clean Air free standing solid fuel heater can be found in the lounge and a sunroom provides an ideal spot to relax and enjoy your surroundings. While you can live in the home as it sits it is an ideal renovator ripe for refurbishment and any money you invested in the home, or property for that matter, would be well spent for future returns.
Other infrastructure includes a lock-up garage with concrete floor and power, which fits four cars, and a big farm shed for machinery, hay and the like. The property is on a quiet sealed road just 10 minutes from Castlemaine, 30 minutes from the major regional city of Bendigo, and only one hour from Tullamarine or the Melbourne fringe with good freeway access.
Affordable lifestyle options like this are few and far between and don't remain available for long so if this sounds like something that might interest you, you would be wise to contact the agent or attend an open sooner rather than later so you don't miss out.
