One of Bungendore's most charming properties, this home is set within a really lovely garden on a nearly half acre block right in the middle of the village. From here you can walk to the supermarket, the cafe's and shops, with the park and playing fields nearby. Children can easily walk or ride their bikes to the primary school - this truly is an outstanding location.
The character and charm of this mudbrick and straw bale home is evident from the moment you enter, it is truly bespoke. The photographs do not do it justice - it is even more magical in real life!
Set back from the street behind a tall timber fence, the home is set within a traditional flowering garden with one of the finest Quince trees in the district. A pebble driveway leads to the house and the mudbrick studio. The studio has been used as a craft and textile space, it has a mezzanine for storage and another storage room at the back. It could be used to work from home or as a creative space, a gym, a meditation or yoga space or even as a teenagers' retreat.
There is a paved courtyard and a large pergola for outdoor entertaining. Connecting to this is a deep veranda that wraps around the house keeping the weather at bay and the house cool in summer. Extensive use of floor to ceiling windows lets the light pour in, with repurposed 19th century church windows and doors adding character and warmth.
The kitchen is large, well laid out and has plenty of cupboard space, the bathroom is also a good size with a bath and a separate shower. Off this is a generous mudroom that can double as a laundry.
Currently used as a three bedroom home, with two bedrooms downstairs and and an attic master bedroom and walk in robe upstairs, there is also a study/4th bedroom with a powder room tucked behind a feature wall.
