227 Eaglehawk Road LONG GULLY VIC

*Please pre-register for open house* This is genuinely one “out-of-the-box” positioned on the high-side of Eaglehawk road with commanding northerly views, a classic American’influenced passive-solar design boasting big bright windows, high ceilings and three levels of living. The engineering and design put into this property could not be replicated in a normal residential build these days – the property was built to last. Walking up to the large double carport (positioned under the first level) the first stop are the two consulting rooms with plumbing (originally a doctors surgery when built), ideal for a fifth/guest bedroom alternatively. Up-stairs you enter the large living hub – floor to ceiling windows and glass doors with views, original polished pine floors, large reverse-cycle split-system and a trendy brick feature-wall (now with gas log heater built-in), there is a large meals and family room forming this space. The kitchen is adjacent, it has numerous overhead cupboards, pot-drawers, upright cooker, plenty of bench space and conveniently houses the laundry. This living hub continues outside to a large elevated decked area overlooking a private grassy patch with protection and privacy from a double brick wall towards Eaglehawk road. A second living space is close-by with slate floors, lots of windows and a wood heater. It has access to a covered alfresco shaded by established trees; there is a second bathroom here with external access – ideal to scrub up after outside activities. On a second split-level from the living hub are the four bedrooms and study. The bedrooms are a good size, have built-in-robes and polished floors. The study also has good storage and a phone connection. There are three additional split-systems to keep this area comfortable. The nearby family bathroom was updated recently and boasts 1200mm frameless shower, large bath, hung vanity, linen press and extensive tiling. The yard is huge – 2,000m2 on two titles (hard to find this close to the CBD). It is private, elevated and there is plenty of room to move. To one side is the established grassed area, to the other is easy access to a 6m x 9m powered workshop with doubler roller-doors; there’s a water tank with pump, good fences and some sundry shedding. There are no neighbours out back – just acres of Crown Land and rear access from a track if needed. It is an irreplaceable classic with a distinct style built ahead of its time – large allotment, great position and very private. It could be yours!
