43 Cruits Lane, Muckleford VIC 3451

Quietly positioned adjoining State Forest and with an outlook over grazing and bushlands, this carefully created Modern Homestead is off-grid with solar power, but has the convenience of phone, mobile coverage and NBN internet too. Just 8km from Castlemaine and with the Steiner School and Newstead/Maldon townships also nearby, this is simply a great place to be and enjoy natures peace and quiet. Built in 2004 the modern homestead is elevated and features a hardwood timber floor, tall ceilings and large windows throughout. The home has wide decked verandahs on 3 sides, open plan living and dining spaces, wood fire heating, a great kitchen with an outlook, timber benches, walk-in pantry and modern appliances, plus there are 4 large bedrooms, 2 with Juliette balconies and reverse cycle air, 2 bathrooms, a 3rd toilet/powder room, and an open plan study room. Native gardens adjoin the home and nearby are 3 great outbuildings including a 2 car carport with store and energy shed, 6x12m garage/workshop with wood shed, and a separate 6x3m workshop/store shed. There is 45,000 litres tank water plus garden tank from the dam which has terrific catchment.
