Located on the outskirts of the pretty Goldfields hamlet of Sedgwick with its rolling hills, open farmland and stands of native timber, the setting is positively bucolic. Boasting an irregular shaped block of 2.9 acres (1.2 ha) with a rear boundary that borders the permanent Emu Creek, the land is a mix of native timber forest with cleared spaces that lend the property to numerous lifestyle and hobby farming pursuits. Or simply kick back and enjoy the peace and tranquility of this appealing offering. Electric gates open to reveal simply stunning house gardens, professionally installed kangaroo fencing keeping the manicured lawns, rose gardens and mature trees including ornamental blossoms, oak, fig and a variety of fruit trees in pristine condition. Nestled in this space is a 1970s brick veneer, besser block and iron-roofed home with wide covered, wrap-around verandas and a gorgeous garden-facing, vine covered paved alfresco patio.<br/><br/>Double entry doors open to an interior that boasts generous proportions and a layout that invites relaxed dining and entertainment on an intimate or larger scale. Feature windows throughout not only fill the interior with natural light but draw the beautiful gardens into the home. Exposed timber beams, brick feature walls with open fireplaces, arched doorways and split levels were key characteristics of 1970s design and all are displayed here through the free-flowing formal and informal living and dining zones which surround the home’s heart, a timber kitchen with loads of bench and storage space, island bench, electric cooking, dishwasher and large pantry.

Three queen bedrooms each with built-in robes are located at the easterly end of the family zones. The second bedroom has an ensuite while the third and fourth share a centrally located family bathroom. Adjacent to the home, at the rear of the triple carport a separate studio would be an ideal home office/study or 5th bedroom/teenager retreat. <br/><br/>Sure the interior is dated, but the residence has excellent bones so this is an immensely livable home while you plan and undertake the cosmetic update that will deliver beautiful, stylish and contemporary living.
