Resting in a hidden valley, adjacent to the Castlemaine Diggings National Heritage Park, this four bedroom 1980s mud brick and cedar home on 2.15 acres is a classic lifestyle property.
The open plan lounge/dining and kitchen look out across the entertainers' deck to the bushland beyond, and is heated by a woodburner and split system benefitting from the mudbrick thermal mass. Two of the four bedrooms have built in robes, one also doubles as a study, and there is a central family bathroom & laundry.
Outside, the huge 9x12m studio/workshop with mezzanine (currently used as a study) has power, a woodburner and is plumbed with a toilet & basin; a perfect place to create a flexible working/living space.
Connected to mains electricity, take advantage of the other green features: 4kw grid-connect solar system, extensive water tanks, water filtration system and septic. Only a few minutes drive into the popular village of Chewton with its primary school, pub and pool and 7 minutes from Castlemaine, this earthen home provides peace and quiet in this hidden rural space.
