“What you love about the property” (vendor perspective)
What we’ve loved most about living here is the feeling of peace and nostalgia that greets you the moment you arrive. Hidden behind the wisteria and rhododendrons, the house feels like a secret garden retreat — full of warmth, character, and memories. We’ve loved the woodfire in winter, the way the light moves through the home during the day, and the sense of space that comes from its generous rooms and leafy outlooks. The upstairs retreat has been our favourite spot to unwind, with its quiet treetop views. This home has given us years of joy — celebrating milestones, welcoming family, and enjoying everything the Macedon Ranges lifestyle has to offer. It’s been more than a home; it’s been a piece of history we’ve been proud to care for.
