Privately positioned on approximately 8.64 hectares, encompassing some of the most exquisite gardens in the region, ‘Hillcrest’ is a remarkable lifestyle landholding. Offering a compelling blend of natural beauty, thoughtful design and rural utility within easy reach of Kyneton, Woodend and Daylesford, this impressive five-bedroom residence presents generous proportions together with the utmost contemporary comfort. Engineered bamboo floors, high ceilings and wide hallways create synergy and flow, with vast double glazed windows framing idyllic garden outlooks and welcoming gentle natural light.
Unforgettable sunsets and sweeping rural views are visible from the west facing open plan kitchen, living and dining zone, where sliding doors open to the alfresco entertaining area with box seat views of the garden. Meticulously designed over years to provide viewing pleasure throughout the seasons, the garden is well stocked with thriving shrubs and plants, including camelias, dogwoods, magnolias, rhododendrons, waratahs and thousands of daffodil bulbs.
The flexible interior layout allows for easy family living or guest accommodation. The expansive primary bedroom suite includes a generous walk in robe and private ensuite, while three additional bedrooms all feature built-in robes. A media room or study can serve as a fifth bedroom if desired. Considered zoning allows the rear wing to be separated for privacy or multi-generational living as needs demand. Engineered stone benchtops, glass splashback and a suite of quality appliances feature in the elegant kitchen, while a large family bathroom, powder room, well-appointed laundry and extensive built in storage ensure every detail of everyday life is supported. Includes a wood heater with heat transfer system, reverse cycle split systems and electric wall heaters.
Outside, find a kitchen garden, glass greenhouse and structured garden beds in harmony with winding lawn paths, all protected by double fencing and a windbreak. Extensive infrastructure includes a four-bay machinery shed with extra height for caravan storage, a large open bay woodshed, ample rainwater storage, bore, water treatment plant, two phase power, 5kW solar system and automatic entry gate.
Several fenced paddocks with established windbreaks make the land suitable for horses or livestock, while frontage to the Loddon River enhances its appeal as a true rural sanctuary. Well suited to serve as a high performance hobby farm, a family retreat, or a versatile dual-purpose property with income potential, Hillcrest is a property of genuine scale and considered design, ready to realise prominent lifestyle aspirations.
