Description
Something special is on offer here in this amazing property that has been loved, cherished and established by the current owners for over 40 years.
House 1 : The Grand Lady - A one of a kind for our area, this original Federation Bungalow was moved here from inner Melbourne in 1983 and showcases all of the features you would expect in a gem such as this.
Entering through magnificent stained glass doors, and into the main lounge, you are greeted with hardwood flooring, sash windows, high ceilings and ornate plasterwork, and ensconced in a fire place is a combustion wood heater to keep the home snuggly and warm.
An open design kitchen and meals area offers flexibility for large family dining and the kitchen provides an island bench in the country style kitchen, complete with a cute pantry/larder.
Moving on through the home to the next wing, a wide hallway gives access to the 4 bedrooms, bathrooms and the secret Attic room.
A glorious and expansive master bedroom has an open fire and showcases a feature bay window where you can sit in your favorite chairs and read your books, and also provides a walk in robe and full ensuite. The further 3 huge bedrooms also feature open fire places and character features everywhere you look.
Pull down stairs from the ceiling give fun access to a large Attic which the kids would love, or you could take over as an art room, a secret music room or whatever your imagination allows.
House 2: The cottage - a cute 2 bedroom weatherboard home with its own separate entrance off Eacotts Rd, private yard and even a paddock. The snuggly lounge with woodfire is the perfect place to nestle on a cold winters night and the country kitchen and bathroom give that real country cottage appeal. While you could certainly do some upgrades on this, its perfectly livable and ideal to rent out being a very private part of the property.
The property: 21.50 acres of beautiful Hoddles Creek soil, with a mix of red dirt and grey, where lush plantings are thriving in this beautiful environment. The owner has created a botanical wonderland with a maze of camelias, age old oaks, an array of maples, rhododendrons and too many more to mention here.
Picturesque open paddocks are plentiful, with room for horses or livestock to roam in the sunshine or shade under the native Peppermint stand.
A stunning spring fed dam is the perfect place to drop in a kayak and paddle for the afternoon, or just laze by the edge and enjoy the cool and listen to the happy frogs chanting away.
This beautiful property could see you getting lost for hours on end, exploring the delights of each season and wandering aimlessly.
We look forward to showing you this very special property.
