5 Barclay Place, Riddells Creek VIC 3431

At the top of a gravelled horseshoe driveway sits a perfect country escape in the picturesque Macedon Ranges. A charming three-bedroom home with a separate one-bedroom fully self-contained unit set amidst gardens and greenery, this property offers tranquillity and seclusion on a large block.

Inside the main house, there are three bedrooms and loads of storage, ensuring clutter-free living. The main bedroom has a walk-through robe to the ensuite, which features a shower, toilet, vanity and built-in storage. The family bathroom has a large shower, floor-to-ceiling tiles, and a fabulous tub in which to relax.

There's a bright galley kitchen with gorgeous garden views and windows that open to a covered alfresco – perfect for entertaining. The kitchen has 40mm stone benchtops, pantry, glass splashback, overhead cabinets, gas cooktop and electric oven. The home is warmed through ducted heating and kept cool on those hot summer days with evaporative cooling. There are plenty of trees to sit under when you need a shady spot to get away from the world.

Meander down garden paths to the raised veggie beds, the pond with its water feature, or to the dog/chook run – there's around an acre of land to explore! There's also access from Gap Road giving you multiple entry points to the block.

The one-bedroom unit has its own entrance, bathroom, kitchen, and laundry opening up entrepreneurial possibilities such as short-term rental (currently earning $400 per week). It also has potential as a long-term rental and is perfect for multigenerational living. Additionally, a versatile shed provides extra space for a home office, studio, games room, teenager retreat, or other creative endeavour.

Embrace country living at its finest in this idyllic retreat where the commute to Melbourne's CBD is less than an hour by car or train.
