The home is in a brilliant elevated position which accentuates the breathtaking sweeping views across an undulating landscape. It is further complemented with a resort style entertaining venue, rich fertile paddocks and an abundant water supply.

Situated on approximately 25 acres this unique craftsman built home is bursting with character and charm having beautiful rustic features such as timber lined ceilings, exposed Oregon beams, brick paved flooring, hand crafted timber windows and doors and of course textured mudbrick walls. Downstairs has true colonial styling whilst upstairs blends contemporary and country style to perfection.

The home has been freshly painted throughout and two of the four bedrooms, each with built-in-robes, are on the ground floor and serviced by a cleverly designed mudroom style bathroom/laundry with a new shower, ornate brick and timber vanity, laundry tub, coat rack, separate toilet and direct access to the verandah, as do all of the downstairs rooms.

Also on the ground floor is the ever so inviting L-shaped open plan kitchen, dining, living area. The country style kitchen is a truly splendid place to hone your cooking skills with pine and red gum cabinetry and benchtops, a Belco stainless steel electric oven with a gas cooktop, Bosch dishwasher and a very nice outlook over the back yard, pool, paddocks and dams. The lounge is spacious yet cosy with a Heat Charm wood heater set into an ornate fire place with a brick and stone chimney and from here Oregon stairs lead to the first floor.

Upstairs has a very architectural yet natural feel with raked ceilings, timber beams and a vast open plan design perfect for entertaining guests whose eyes will be immediately drawn to the full wall of double glazed windows with Australian hardwood frames leading directly onto a Jarrah balcony with a stainless steel balustrade revealing a spectacular outlook over the pool, lake, lush green paddocks, picturesque creek, and amazing distant views.

Here you will also find the other two bedrooms which are serviced by their own ultra-modern bathroom featuring a Spa bath with a shower over, toilet, vanity with cupboard and drawer space and a handy storage space in the void. Comfort is assured with evaporative cooling.

In keeping with most traditional country properties, the wide verandahs encompass the home and provide an ideal place to sit and enjoy a cuppa whilst taking in your lovely peaceful surroundings. Along with being a great vantage point to watch over your livestock the front verandah in particular boasts a lovely clear view right across to Mount Alexander.

A magnificent resort style entertaining venue that extends from the home will comfortably accommodate all of your family and friends for memorable get-togethers. The expansive undercover alfresco area comes complete with brick paving, built-in timber cabinetry and benches, a sink and a stainless steel BBQ. A real standout feature adjoining this area is the luxurious in-ground salt chlorinated, solar heated pool complete with in floor cleaning. Nothing could be more perfect for the warmer months.

The property has been beautifully landscaped to a very high standard creating a truly serene setting with a vast array of plants including agapanthus, roses, fan palms, well established trees and lush lawns which are all taken care of by a watering system with pop up sprinklers and drippers. A secure house yard with rabbit proof fencing is perfect for kids and pets.

Abundant water is supplied by two catchment dams including a massive 15 megalitre dam at the rear of the property. This dam has an electric pressure pump and a real attribute is the 7 megalitre water right from Axe Creek which forms the rear boundary. This along with several tanks totalling 90,000 litres of rainwater storage ensures ample water provision.

The property is divided into 6 main paddocks plus the house yard. All paddocks have new concrete post fencing and have been sown down to new pastures, with clover, rye and cocksfoot in improved soil which is well fertilized annually. Lucerne is planted on the creek flats and the property is suitable for all forms of livestock. Vehicle storage is well catered for with 5 carport spaces and a large workshop / storage shed has a concrete floor, power and lights.
