The best property decisions aren't just about bricks and mortar—they're about choosing how you want to live.
This beautifully appointed contemporary residence combines enduring style, intelligent planning and effortless low-maintenance living to create a home that gives back more than it asks of you.
Immediately distinctive within the streetscape, this is far from an off-the-shelf home. Purposefully conceived by its owner-occupier, every space has been carefully curated to deliver exceptional functionality, timeless appeal and everyday comfort. It captures everything people love about country living while embracing the efficiency, quality and ease of modern construction.
Here, weekends are spent exploring cafés, wineries, farmers' markets and walking trails, sharing long lunches with friends or simply enjoying the peace and quiet—not maintaining the house.
Positioned on a generous one-third-acre allotment within easy walking distance of Newstead's charming historic village, you're moments from the café, bakery, butcher, IGA and hotel, while Castlemaine, Daylesford and fast rail connections to Melbourne, Bendigo and beyond are all within easy reach.
Close enough to stay connected. Far enough away to truly exhale.
From the moment you enter, clean lines, balanced proportions and a calming palette create an immediate sense of space. Soaring 2700mm ceilings, a dramatic raked ceiling above the living area, oversized 2340mm internal doors, soft blue cabinetry, warm timber tones, charcoal accents and natural textures create interiors that feel sophisticated, welcoming and enduring.
At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen with stone benchtops, premium black appliances and generous preparation space. A statement pendant anchors the dining area, while the open-plan living flows seamlessly to the covered alfresco for effortless year-round entertaining.
Whether you're preparing meals with fresh local produce, sharing regional wine, enjoying your morning coffee or popping popcorn before settling into the theatre room, this home has been created around the moments that matter most.
The flexible floor-plan evolves with your lifestyle. The separate theatre or media space can also serve as a library, home office, studio, games room or optional fourth bedroom, while the built-in study with its own coffee and bar station provides another practical workspace.
Privately positioned away from the remaining bedrooms, the master suite features plush carpet, a generous walk-in robe and an elegant ensuite with twin vanities, an oversized shower and separate toilet. Bedrooms two and three are equally inviting with built-in robes, quality carpet and generous proportions.
Both bathrooms showcase striking terrazzo-inspired floor-to-ceiling tiling, elegant black tapware, floating timber cabinetry and refined contemporary finishes, while the freestanding bath provides the perfect place to unwind.
Beautiful design is matched by exceptional practicality, with extensive storage, a walk-in linen cupboard and a spacious laundry featuring stone benchtops, excellent cabinetry and direct outdoor access.
Outside, the north-facing backyard offers the perfect balance of space and manageability. Create your own veggie garden, orchard, fire-pit, spa, children's play area or secure haven for pets, while enjoying a generous allotment without the upkeep of acreage. The oversized double garage with internal access; could become an addition lounge, yoga/medication room or a multi-purpose space. The expansive driveway easily accommodates additional vehicles, a caravan or boat.
Families will appreciate Newstead Primary School nearby, together with Castlemaine Secondary College and several Catholic and independent schooling options. Beyond your doorstep lies one of Victoria's most celebrated regional destinations, offering walking and cycling trails, Goldfields history, boutique wineries, artisan producers, farmers' markets, galleries, theatres, live music, bookshops and picturesque heritage villages.
