It’s rare for one of Mandurang’s architectural gems to come on the market, which makes this new listing a joy to see. These thoughtful, creative, earthy homes in the forest east of Bendigo are often for keeps. For life within is something special. Number 53 Fadersons Lane is classic Mandurang; bespoke design, split level and with beautiful views at every turn. The property has been much loved over the past 30-plus years to feature an established landscaped garden and excellent external infrastructure. Plus, it’s been updated as needed in recent times. Set on 1.61 leafy hectares, with a winding gravel drive between the trees, coming home will be a constant pleasure. Separate to the house is a single Colourbond garage, a double brick garage and a double carport. Inside the brick veneer home, find four bedrooms, two living areas and two bathrooms over two levels. The bedrooms all have ceiling fans, the family bathroom has a new stone benchtop. The master suite has a dual robes and an ensuite. This wing of the home wraps around a large and private lounge room, with stunning views. The second, open-plan living space is full of warmth and character, thanks to a high raked ceiling with exposed timber beams, and a wood heater encased in a floor-to-ceiling sandstone hearth. The as-new, solid timber kitchen is in perfect keeping with the house. It has a French farmhouse sink, two-drawer dishwasher, 900mm stainless steel freestanding stove and a pantry cupboard. The living space extends outside to the wide undercover verandas, and the big sun soaked north-facing deck. Get ready for many memorable summer breakfasts with the birds and evenings under the stars, right here. Avid gardeners will appreciate the separate entrance into the house through the mud room, between a third toilet and the laundry. Other features to note are split system heating and cooling, lots of ceiling fans, and solar panels. The treed block slopes down at the back towards a lovely dam; byo fishing rods to a swift inspection! You’ll also be in good company here, as the property sits quietly between Mandurang Valley Wines and the Goldfields Revegetation Nursery.
