5 Adams Road

A fairy tale rural escape: 20 acres of complete privacy with three impressive separate, hand-built structures with a water tower. Surrounded by State Forest, this could be an eclectic weekender to rest and reset, where nobody knows where you are. Over the past 50 years, the buildings were built slowly with local stone and timber harvested from the property to form the 'Heath Robinsonesque' structures along with a deep dam. The property provides two wood burners, a cellar, solar power, a primitive hot water system, a shower, worksheds, water tanks and a walled garden. There is no mains power or water, but there is a telephone line. Bordered by the Old Poverty Gully water race, the property is accessed via a rough 4x4 un-named road off White Gum Track and south of the Pyrenees Highway (to access a high clearance vehicle is recommended). Located within 10km of Castlemaine, 5km from Chewton, 50km from Bendigo and 120km from Melbourne. This property should not be seen as a dwelling but as something special. It is for those looking to escape from it all and own Chewton's most unusual property.
