There are two large living areas, one of which has a cathedral ceiling and could be used as a billiard room, gymnasium or home theatre. Leading off this area, there is a Tylo sauna room, with two seating levels, which has its separate shower and change-room. The second living area would be ideally suited to a formal lounge room for reading, relaxing and enjoying the view. This room also has a large slow-combustion wood heater. Separate dining room with ample room for a large dining table and chairs and serving area. Laundry has a Terrier chip heater for heating water and keeping down those ever-increasing electricity bills.

A 40′ x 20′ shed with concrete floor, a small wood shed for stocking the winter wood supply. You will never run short of wood, as there is a plentiful supply of fallen timber on the property that will last you a lifetime. There is plenty of storage space in the roof (with electric lights), accessed via an Amboss disappearing ceiling ladder. The property abuts The Clarkesdale Bird Sanctuary, run by Birds Australia, so there’s always lots of birdlife around. There is a local primary school in Linton and two further primary schools within a 15 minute drive. Buses from Linton Township take secondary school students into schools in Ballarat.
