Wake up to birdsong, sip your morning coffee on sun-drenched Australian hardwood decking, and watch kangaroos graze beneath towering gums - this is country living at its finest. Set on more than 24 acres of gently undulating land with sweeping views, established native gardens and direct access to the Castlemaine Diggings National Heritage Park, this beautifully presented off-grid retreat offers peace, privacy, and effortless style, just minutes from Guildford and central to Daylesford, Castlemaine, and Ballarat.
Designed with both sustainability and sophistication in mind, the home is powered by an upgraded solar system with ample battery storage, supported by a 7KVA auto-start backup generator and 60,000L of rainwater capacity. Inside, the charm of a farmhouse kitchen sink, Italian 5-burner oven, and solid timber floors blend seamlessly with a Nectre fireplace, wood-fired oven, and industrial black-metal accents. Barn-style sliding doors, elegant sheer curtains, and designer lighting add warmth and ambience, with split-system heating and cooling ensuring year-round comfort.
Step outside to expansive north-facing decking—the perfect place for long lunches, sunset drinks, or simply breathing in the serenity of your natural surrounds. The grounds feature two dams, a fire pit, shipping-container storage, and ample space for horses or hobby farming. With forest tracks to explore and wildlife ever-present, every day here feels like a retreat into nature.
