Set across 6.5 acres of beautifully landscaped, park-like grounds and just 4.5 kilometres from the heart of Castlemaine, this exceptional ranch-inspired property offers a rare fusion of rural tranquillity, architectural character, and modern functionality. Privately positioned behind solar gates and a sweeping ornamental pear-lined driveway, the estate enjoys a peaceful setting that backs directly onto crown land, ensuring long-term privacy and a deep sense of connection to nature.
The two-storey brick residence immediately impresses with its classic ranch-style proportions, striking black-framed windows and doors, oversized timber verandah posts, and a welcoming circular garden featuring Acer Sensations. Inside, the home reveals a warm and character-filled interior, highlighted by shiplap feature walls, a stunning brick fireplace fitted with a Nectre wood heater, and refined finishes that create a sense of timeless comfort.
At the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area has been designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The country-style kitchen showcases timber and stone benchtops, brick detailing, a butler’s sink, gas and electric cooking, and a generous walk-in pantry with barn door and open shelving. The adjoining living and dining spaces flow effortlessly, creating an inviting central hub for family and guests alike.
The master suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a bay window, walk-in robe, and a stylish ensuite. Bedrooms two and three include built-in robes and are serviced by a well-appointed laundry and a separate toilet. A thoughtfully designed study nook with built-in storage provides an ideal workspace or creative zone. Upstairs, a cosy reading nook and a spacious library or sitting room offer flexible spaces for relaxation, study, or quiet retreat.
Under the same roofline yet with its own private garden access, a fully self-contained two-bedroom apartment adds exceptional versatility to the property. Ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or rental income, the apartment features two bedrooms with built-in robes, a full kitchen, a comfortable living area with built-in storage and entertainment unit, split-system heating and cooling, a bathroom, separate toilet, and laundry. Fully insulated with acoustic-grade materials, it ensures comfort and privacy throughout.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with winding brick-edged pathways connecting a glasshouse, potting courtyard, raised vegetable beds, herb garden, and a productive orchard featuring apples, citrus, olives, and more. Infrastructure is extensive, including a powered four-bay workshop, a fully lined and insulated two-bay studio with feature glass doors, three garden sheds, and an additional storage or hobby shed with feature doors.
Water is abundant and well managed, with a bore-fed ornamental dam known as “Trout Lake” featuring decorative stone features. In addition there are two 45,000-litre rain water tanks, one 22,500-litre tank, and extensive dog-proof fencing across the property. For leisure and entertaining, a covered and paved outdoor area overlooks a mineral, solar-heated swimming pool with cabana, creating a private, resort-style setting perfect for hosting or unwinding in total seclusion.
Parking is well catered for with a two-car carport, multiple open parking spaces, and ample room for vehicles, trailers, or equipment. This remarkable estate presents a truly rare lifestyle opportunity, combining the charm and serenity of country living with high-end features, flexibility, and modern convenience, all just minutes from Castlemaine’s vibrant town centre.
