Positioned within the tightly held and highly regarded township of Bungaree, this beautifully renovated family home delivers the perfect balance between peaceful country living and modern-day convenience. Ideally located on the Melbourne side of Ballarat, the property offers effortless freeway access for commuters while still providing the charm and sense of community that makes Bungaree such a sought-after lifestyle destination. Set upon approximately 1.8 acres of idyllic land, this is far more than just a home - it is an opportunity to create the lifestyle you have always envisioned, all while enjoying the comfort of a property that has already undergone extensive and thoughtful updates throughout. From the moment you arrive, the wraparound front verandah creates an inviting first impression, perfectly complementing the relaxed country setting. Inside, the home immediately feels warm, welcoming, and flooded with natural light thanks to expansive double-glazed windows throughout. Every detail has been carefully considered, with updates including new flooring, updated blinds, an upgraded switchboard, renovated kitchen and bathrooms, a modernised laundry, and significant external improvements, including a restored roof that has been re-bedded, re-sealed, and re-pointed, along with updated gutters for peace of mind. The heart of the home centres around the beautifully renovated kitchen installed by Ideal Cabinetry, combining functionality with timeless style. Featuring quality BOSCH appliances, including a 600mm electric oven and induction cooktop, dishwasher, double sink, stone benchtops, and an abundance of storage and preparation space, the kitchen also boasts an incredibly generous walk-in pantry that will impress even the most avid home cook. Adjacent, the spacious dining area offers excellent flexibility, easily accommodating a second sitting space or reading nook beneath the large windows where you can relax and take in the peaceful surrounds. Designed with family living in mind, the home offers multiple generous living zones, including a spacious main lounge complete with a feature wood heater that creates a cosy atmosphere during the cooler months, while a split system ensures year-round comfort. The accommodation is equally impressive, with a well-appointed master suite featuring a walk-in robe, ceiling fan, and beautifully updated ensuite. Bedrooms two and three are exceptionally spacious and include built-in robes, while one also benefits from a built-in desk or dresser station. The fourth bedroom is particularly versatile due to its grand proportions and could easily function as a shared children's room, second living zone, home office, or additional rumpus space, depending on your family's needs. The central family bathroom has also been stylishly updated and includes a separate bath, shower, and vanity, while the renovated laundry offers excellent storage alongside a separate toilet for added convenience. The oversized double garage provides direct internal access to the home, further enhancing practicality for everyday living. Stepping outside, the lifestyle appeal of this property truly comes to life. A large undercover entertaining area at the rear creates the ideal setting for gatherings with family and friends, while an additional patio area off the dining space provides another peaceful place to unwind. The property offers two separate driveways, allowing enormous flexibility for future shedding, vehicle access, or additional infrastructure to suit your lifestyle ambitions. With extensive open space surrounding the home, the possibilities here are endless. Whether you dream of establishing a garden oasis, fruit orchard, hobby farm, additional shedding, a BMX track for the kids, sporting space for football or cricket, or even a future tennis court, this is a property where you can truly make the land your own. Existing improvements include a chook pen, garden shed, and solar panels, adding further practicality and lifestyle appeal. Positioned within one of the region's most desirable lifestyle locations, you are only moments from the Bungaree Primary School and Recreation Reserve & Playground, approximately 10 minutes to Ryan's IGA in Victoria Street, and only a short drive further into the Ballarat CBD. Easy access to Wendouree, Alfredton, Lucas, and beyond via the freeway ensures complete convenience, while commuters to Melbourne will appreciate the outstanding accessibility this location provides. Beautifully renovated, incredibly versatile, and offering the rare opportunity to secure acreage living without sacrificing modern comfort or convenience, this exceptional Bungaree property is one that must be experienced in person to be truly appreciated.
