Located a 10 minute drive from both Daylesford and Trentham, is this exquisite artists retreat with panoramic views and established gardens for year round pleasure.
This rendered mudbrick home, with town power, 6KW solar panels, gas cooking and ample water supply (dam and bore) has had just three owners in its 30 year life. A real sense of “home” shines through as soon as you enter the property, and continues as you make your way around the approx. 20 acres.
Three bedrooms, all with BIRs are situated along the skylight lit hallway, with easy access to the large bathrooms and laundry. The main bathroom hosts a large walk in shower and luxurious freestanding hammered copper bath. The 2nd bathroom has a walk-in shower and basin, with separate toilet.
The main bedroom has external access through a private outdoor alcove with horizon views, with the 2nd bedroom skylight providing natural light and views of the maintained gardens.
An artist studio, which could be converted to a 4th bedroom, is located off a light-filled, modern open plan living space/home office with built in shelves and benches, split system and high speed NBN satellite internet.
Stepping through the front door, you are greeted by a high arched ceiling, timber floors and a large mudbrick fireplace. An open plan living/dining flows from the kitchen, which houses a walk in pantry, large gas oven, as well as a new Aga Rayburn 200SFW wood stove (2 ovens) which suitably heats the house on those cold winter days. The view from the kitchen out onto the Bullarto bushland gives a real sense of peace and quiet, with the only noise to be heard coming from the abundance of wildlife in the area.
The keen gardener will fall in love with the rich red soil of the area, established and extensive garden beds, and flourishing native flower and foliage picking garden (with 50 established plants including white waratahs, king proteas and leucadendrons). The garden also features a large fenced vegetable garden with raised beds and indoor/outdoor hothouse. The entire garden has a recently established watering system with pop up sprinklers, with unlimited water via the spring fed bore.
A chook run with established dwarf fruit trees (netted), water feature and pond, evergreen hydrangeas, and mature trees including oak tree, casuarina pine, cops of Irish strawberry trees and copper birches are just a small handful of the many delights you will find outside.
Just when you think there is nothing left to discover, you find the one room barn studio separate from the main home. Inside is a wood fire to keep you nice and warm and kitchenette. The outside fire bath looks out onto the forest and an equestrian arena, with tack room adjoining the studio. A 2nd access gate gives this the opportunity for private access.
5 acres of land are government leased, at $280 per year, located at the base of the sprawling paddocks.
This property is sure to impress!
