Subscribe to regular market updates. Lifestyle & Sales Specialist Framed by mature trees and introduced by a graceful, tree-lined driveway, this idyllic Mount Helen residence captures the essence of refined rural living. Set on approximately five acres of established, low-maintenance gardens, the property enjoys unexpectedly elevated views across rolling treetops and the wider district, offering a rare sense of peace and privacy. Blending timeless period charm with a sensitive modern renovation, the original farmhouse has been thoughtfully restored and extended to create a home of beauty, comfort and balance. The result is a seamless conversation between eras, where classic character sits effortlessly alongside contemporary design. Inside, the home unfolds with generous proportions and a calm, welcoming atmosphere. Four well-sized bedrooms anchor the accommodation, including a main suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Multiple living zones provide exceptional flexibility: a warm, inviting lounge framed by garden outlooks, a spacious family room opening to the verandah, and a meals area positioned beside the updated kitchen. Polished and heated concrete floors and wide windows create a grounded, modern feel, while the wood heater adds a layer of country warmth. A spacious laundry / mud room is a unexpected practical delight. Expansive lawns, mature plantings and thoughtfully arranged garden beds shape a landscape that feels both established and easy to maintain. Two fenced paddocks and a collection of sheds introduce genuine practicality, with a substantial 6.6 × 6.0 m garage beside the home, additional shedding ideal for storage or workshop pursuits, and a charming cubby house that amplifies the property’s family appeal. Designed for those who value sustainability and self-sufficiency, the property benefits from extensive water storage, multiple external taps, and well-planned infrastructure across the grounds. The setting invites evenings around the firepit, quiet mornings on the verandah and long, unhurried views through the trees. Just moments from Ballarat, Mount Clear and Buninyong, this is a private sanctuary where rural calm meets modern convenience. A place to breathe deeply, watch the sun drift across the hills, and enjoy country living with a level of refinement that is hard to find and impossible to forget.
