50 Fryers Road, Chewton VIC 3451

Sitting high above Fryers Road, this imposing 7+ star energy-rated, three bedroom home is an adaptive reuse of old school buildings, to deliver a modern eco-conscious dwelling close to the village of Chewton.
The property is set over two levels with the living space upstairs; the spacious living/ding room with polished hardwood floors, overlooks the Castlemaine Diggings National Heritage Park, with views to the skyline. The kitchen has an island bench, timber benchtops and large walk-in pantry, dishwasher and lots of storage. There are three bedrooms (two with walk in robes), central bathroom, linen press, separate loo and Euro Laundry.
The home is extremely well insulated, double glazed throughout, solar power, and many re-purposed materials have been used in the construction. Downstairs (which has a stairlift) is the double garage, large storeroom and external door.
Outside is a private courtyard, water tanks, clever use of terracing for the garden (with an irrigation system) and masses of native plants, that surround the property. All services are connected.
A quick stroll to the center of the village, with its pub, pool, post office and primary school - this is eco-sustainable living.
