A quintessential country lane flanked by ancient gums leads to this hidden gem in a tightly held hamlet of green pastures and sweeping views of the surrounding landscape. Only a short drive into Kangaroo Flat for amenities, the Bendigo school bus only a 5-minute drive away, this property offers 19 acres (7.08 hectares) divided into five paddocks, currently set up for horses, a three-bedroom brick veneer home and shedding facilities, a rural lifestyle for the country lover.
A tree-lined driveway ends in a circular entrance greeted by a feature palm tree before a stained glass front door leads into a large entry foyer.
North facing the living with formal dining has an unexpectedly high vaulted timber ceiling, a large bay window, a solid wood heater, a split system, and a brick feature wall. The kitchen opens to a second dining area with a split system and provides an electric cooktop, a wall oven, American oak joinery and plenty of bench space and storage. A sliding door leads to a large paved patio/ entertaining area with an aviary and a gazebo overlooking the garden and countryside. The main bedroom has a large bay window, built-in robes and an ensuite. Two additional bedrooms mirror each other with wall-to-wall built-in robes, a study, a large bathroom with a shower, a bath, toilet, bidet, vanity and a laundry with storage and external access complete the internal floorplan. Design details include a 6.5kw solar system, ceiling fans, underfloor heating, external security blinds and a double roller door garage. The house is on tank water with a capacity of 16,000 gallons and an additional 20,000 gallons.
