31 McLachlans Lane, Lockwood VIC 3551

This stunning rural retreat offers serenity and seclusion set amongst hundreds of native and ornamental trees where the birds, trees and bubbling seasonal creeks are the only disturbances.

The choice land package of approx. 14.5 acres features extensive frontage to Bullock Creek and its tributary Stones Creek with three well-fenced and watered paddocks on fertile creek flats.

This JG King master-built home hosts lashings of functionality and a sense of space and light enhanced by well-placed windows flooding it with natural light and providing garden or rural vistas from every room.

The main suite includes a walk-in robe and large ensuite, while the study/nursery next door is a quiet place away from the action for working from home.

Living spaces include a lounge with, spacious dining and family living areas with a built-in bar and access to the outdoor living/alfresco areas and full-length verandas.

The heart and hub of the home is the recently completed, on-trend kitchen with 900m stainless steel gas/electric range, a dishwasher, a large stone-topped, waterfall-end island bench for casual dining, ample storage and a butlers pantry.

The other end of the residence consists of the two robed bedrooms, the family bathroom, laundry, walk-in linen and double garage access.

Outside is the perfect combination of established gardens and rolling pasture with an approx 2mg dam, a small forested area and a lovely shaded picnic or camping along the tree-lined creeks.
The property has previously enjoyed horticultural pursuits and currently runs sheep, alpacas or cattle.

Anything will grow here with the abundant water supply from a 5.5Mg water entitlement, a bore (700PPM) approx 80K ltrs of rainwater and a recycled septic sprinkler system.

There's a four-bay shed with high span roller doors for caravan etc., power, concrete floors, workbenches and a lined office/storeroom.
