Set on a hill near the quiet, historical rural village of Gordon, this spacious family home boasts magnificent country views from every window that need to be seen to be believed.
Gordon, a peaceful town located in central Victoria, is rich in history and old-world charm. Featuring a historic post office, general store, country pub, café, pharmacy, and two primary schools, this town is a perfect place to raise a family or make that tree change you’ve always longed for.
Gordon is close to modern conveniences such as supermarkets, restaurants, schools, and train stations in Ballan (10 min) and the city of Ballarat (20 min).
With Bacchus Marsh (25 min), Melton (30 min), Ravenhall (40 min), and Melbourne only 65 minutes down the well-maintained Western Highway, working in or visiting these bigger towns and cities while enjoying a country lifestyle is a real possibility.
Situated on a hill, this home boasts amazing views from every vantage point and out each window that will take your breath away. Pictures tell a thousand words, but to truly appreciate the views from this property, you need to visit and soak in the panoramic vista with your own eyes.
With four large bedrooms and an extra study (bedroom/nursery), this home would be perfect for a small or large family, as well as those wishing to work from home.
The extra-large master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with a separate toilet. All bedrooms are heated and have built-in robes. The main bathroom is spacious, with a bath, shower, and vanity, and the separate main toilet has an adjoining vanity, mirror, and cabinet for convenience.
The charming country-style kitchen has a built-in pantry, dishwasher, electric cooktop, and plenty of bench space and storage. Two large living areas with multiple windows, including two bay windows and French doors let in ample natural light. It's the perfect place to entertain family and friends and show off those amazing views. Each living area has its own split system for heating and cooling. A wood heater is also installed and is big enough to heat the entire house on those winter days and romantic nights.
The house is completely surrounded by a verandah with wooden slat railing, concrete flooring, and ample alfresco space for outdoor furniture, BBQs, and outdoor entertaining.
A 5-kilowatt solar system connected to the grid supplies power to the house, and four large water tanks capable of holding approximately 100,000 litres of water service the property. Hot water is produced via an energy-efficient heat pump.
A double garage is perfect for keeping your car protected from the elements. Alternatively, the space can be used as a games or rumpus room.
A large three-bay shed is located in the top corner of the property. The shed is built on a concrete slab and has power connected. It is large enough for a workshop and has plenty of space for a compact tractor, extra cars, or farm machinery.
Other features of the property include a chicken coop, bird aviary, raised garden beds, wood shed, and a plunge pool for those hot summer days. The plunge pool is surrounded by a lockable pool fence for safety. Eight security cameras are mounted around the house and record most outdoor areas for peace of mind.
The 4 hectares (10 acres) of the property are split into three separate paddocks, a corral or stockyard, house yard, and driveway area—perfect for hobby farming. All fencing is in excellent condition. If you love animals, the land is ideal for horses, sheep, goats, etc.
Keep an eye out for kangaroos, echidnas, koalas, kookaburras, rosellas, cockatoos, and, soaring high in the sky, the resident majestic wedge-tailed eagles.
With its picturesque postcard views, strong community spirit, and private location, this outstanding property in Gordon provides an opportunity to live a country lifestyle not too far from the larger cities of Ballarat and Melbourne.
