Escape the city in style and enjoy your own little piece of paradise… this lovely property offers lifestyle and convenience in a sought after semi-rural location on the fringe of Koroit, with Tower Hill reserve, Killarney beach and local schools, shops, services all just moments away.
Set on an elevated approx 4037m2 (1 acre) site of rich volcanic soil and lush gardens, the house is situated at the top of the block taking in sweeping rural views to the North. Built in 2013 by GJ Gardner, the charming brick home with colorbond roof has plenty to offer including: 3 good sized bedrooms with BIRs plus a small 4th/ study/ sewing room; master bedroom with WIR and ensuite; light-filled open plan living with impressive views and sunny Northerly aspect; well-equipped kitchen with long island bench, 900mm oven, dishwasher and pantry; smart family bathroom, separate laundry and toilet and internal access from the double garage. The garage is currently set up as half storage/ half salon/studio but could easily be converted back if required. The house has a wood heater in the L shaped open living area plus a reverse cycle split system for heating/cooling, lots of storage and a functional floorplan.
Just over 8 years old, you could just move straight into this property, kick back, relax, enjoy the views and some peace and quiet! Or in this sought after location and in this accessible price range, move in and add your own ideas. The gardens have been established and all the hard work outside has been done but there is certainly scope to add your own touches if you wanted. For example there’s an open hay shed for storage but room for you to add more sheds and plenty of street frontage for vehicular access in and out. The country setting means country services, so you have power and phone, bottled gas, septic and freshwater tanks; there is no town water or sewerage. There is an old disused bore on the site that could be rejuvenated. Intriguingly, there is also the original old cottage at the NE corner of the property where the current vendors stayed while they were building the new house. Given the current planning scheme, the old cottage and outbuildings cannot be used as a second dwelling and as such, services to it have been disconnected. However, there is potentially scope for alternate use both now and/or later on subject to Council approval.
The beauty of this property is that you feel like you’re in the sticks but all city infrastructure and amenities are just moments away. You can awaken to birdsong, relax in the gardens and silently observe the visiting wildlife (you can expect a visit from koalas, emus, wallabies from time to time…), enjoy the serenity and the feeling of open space with neighbours close but not too close, escape the hustles and bustles of life, throw away the TV… but you can also nip down to the supermarket or the takeaway, go out for tea or meet with friends, walk along the beach etc in just a 5 minute drive.
Ideally located between Warrnambool & Port Fairy, in a quiet street on the Tower Hill side of Koroit, this is a sweet property in a picturesque setting that will impress on inspection. Call us today to arrange your private viewing.
