Escape to a captivating and picturesque 25-acres (approx.) on Bendigo’s fringe-your own private haven where space, serenity and natural beauty come together. Tucked away in an idyllic, secluded setting, this lifestyle property offers the quiet country living so many long for, while still being only 20 minutes from Bendigo’s CBD. Daily needs are easily met with school bus routes, schools, supermarkets and local shops close by in Strathfieldsaye, and don’t forget the popular Lake Eppalock is just minutes away for boating, fishing and outdoor fun. The property allows impressive flexibility: move straight in, use it as a weekend getaway, extend the current home, or plan a new build on one of the many potential house sites (STCA) while comfortably living onsite-no rental required during the process. The existing residence has been transformed into a warm, fully self-contained home featuring modern upgrades and a recent new roof installed. Inside are three bedrooms, a refurbished bathroom, an expansive open-plan living, dining and kitchen zone complete with wood heater, a separate playroom, laundry and mudroom with a second toilet, split-system heating and cooling, and a generous covered outdoor area. Mains power is connected, with tank water and a septic system supporting the home. Outdoors, the landscape is equally appealing, with a blend of cleared paddocks, scattered trees and a forested fringe that enhances the sense of escape. Native wildlife frequently wander through, adding to the charm. The acreage offers multiple possible building envelopes (STCA) if you wish to start fresh, plus room for a few sheep or horses for hobby farmers. While some fencing requires attention, a solid base remains. Two substantial dams provide excellent water storage-and are perfect for yabbies and fishing, and swimming in the warmer months. Additional improvements include a 15m x 7.5m (approx.) shed as well as extra sundry shedding. This is a property where children can enjoy the wide-open spaces-whether riding motorbikes or kicking a footy-while adults unwind by the fire with a glass of wine in hand. For those dreaming of peaceful country living surrounded by native flora and fauna, opportunities like this are incredibly rare. Enquire today for further details or to arrange an inspection.
