Beautiful lifestyle property located in the delightful rural community of Staffordshire Reef, only 25 minutes from Ballarat and a short 10 minutes to the local supermarket and shops at Smythesdale. This character packed home offers timeless appeal and the ultimate in privacy and relaxation. It is a perfect place to escape the bustle of everyday life.
Hidden amongst a quiet and very private garden, this charming home has 3 large double bedrooms all with wall-length built in robes. The property also has a 4th bedroom in a romantic fully self-contained, open plan cottage with separate bath and kitchen, with it's very own slate verandah to sit and marvel at the serene country landscape. The stunning views are unsurpassed and the cottage could be capable of paying for the mortgage as a hideaway B&B retreat. The home has a full timber kitchen with ceramic cooktop and dishwasher, living and dining room with both open and slow combustion fires, as well as an original wood burning stove and air conditioning. The main bathroom boasts a deep soaking tub which stays warm for literally hours. The additional sitting room opens to a small paved courtyard. The living room now opens up via full-length tinted stacker doors onto a large deck which encompasses the most breathtaking country view around and extends the outdoor living space. The home is all wrapped up in a sunny wrap-around veranda overlooking the garden, orchard and paddocks. A wide variety of native birds and wildlife frequently reside and visit around the veranda and house garden, making this a great spot for photography and nature enthusiasts. Ample storage of fresh rain water is collected into above and in-ground tanks.
Magnificent 100 year old trees grace the property, with endless views over the Enfield State Forest and Mt Mercer, with not a house in sight. The delightful garden may look as though it needs a lot of care, but in fact is surprisingly low maintenance. The rockery that hugs the house has been lovingly planted in an ad-hoc manner that oozes country garden appeal. The orchard boasts so many different varieties of fruit from productive sweet and sour cherries, figs, apricots, plums, apples, pears, nectarines, passionfruit, peach and citrus and a large veggie patch is ready to sow with your next crop. The property totals just over 10 acres comprising approximately 4 acres (on TWO Titles) of undulating pastured acres with a sprinkling of mature gum trees and the addition of 6 acres of a government lease adjoining Enfield State Forest. The property is divided into mostly cleared paddocks, with two dams and additional water troughs in each, along with plenty of shelter trees. Bring a few cows or horses and have an idyllic spot for a small hobby farm, or strike it rich on your quest for gold. The surrounding area is of great significance as an historical gold mining region with many areas to fossick for gold and explore endless meandering tracks and trails. It has a large 3520 garage shed with electricity connected, other sundry shedding, chook shed, glasshouse and a rustic log cabin cubby house for the kids, new fences around the house and super-fast reliable NBN internet already connected. The school bus to Ballarat private and public schools stops only 100m away from the property. If you've ever dreamed of owning a period home on acreage then this unique property may be exactly what you and your family are seeking. Please call the property owner for your chance to make your "tree change".
