A rare offering where privacy, acreage and convenience unite, BATTUNGA PARK ESTATE is an authentic country homestead set on approximately five acres, yet remarkably just a short walk to the heart of town.
Battunga is an aboriginal word meaning 'place of large trees" and perfectly describes this lifestyle property which is privately positioned behind a circular driveway and framed by established gardens and mature eucalypts. This exceptional property delivers space, serenity, and versatility without sacrificing connection.
Set in a peaceful bush setting with Stoney Creek forming the western boundary, the property enjoys a tranquil natural backdrop where kookaburra birdsong replaces traffic noise. Zoned Low Density Residential and surrounded by green space, it offers a sense of retreat rarely found so close to town.
Built in the early 2000's, this substantial homestead-style residence of approximately 30 squares under roof blends weatherboard and bagged brick construction with traditional character elements including high ceilings, dado walls, slate flooring, deep cornicing, and natural brick fireplaces .
Verandas wrap around all sides, while the passive solar, north-facing orientation fills the home with natural light and enhances year-round comfort. A ducted vacuum cleaning system services the home, adding everyday practicality to its thoughtful design.
The heart of the home is the expansive open plan living, dining and kitchen zone complemented by a second living space with a seamless connection to the undercover alfresco area.
The kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite benchtops, quality Smeg appliances, and a generous walk-in pantry designed for both everyday family living and entertaining.
There are four bedrooms, including a spacious master retreat with walk-in robe and a luxurious ensuite featuring a spa. Every room captures garden or countryside views, reinforcing the home's strong connection to its landscape.
Energy efficiency and comfort are paramount, with double-glazed windows, solar installation, gas instant hot water, solar-supported state of the art heat exchanger operating the underfloor heating, with zoned options. Another charming feature is the double sided open fireplace which offers both indoor and outdoor enjoyment. The home is consistently and effortlessly cool in summer and warm in winter.
Adding significant appeal is a separate studio complete with kitchenette and reverse cycle heating and cooling. This versatile space presents exciting options, ideal for working from home, an art studio, consulting room, second living zone, or subject to council approval, boutique accommodation, or a granny flat for multigenerational living.
The five-acre parcel is primarily open pasture, fully fenced into paddocks and incorporating a dam, livestock shed and extensive shedding. A large workshop, greenhouse, outbuildings and a double carport ensure practicality for trades, hobby farmers, or those simply seeking storage and space.
Established gardens surround the home, including fruit trees and landscaped areas that enhance the north-facing outdoor living spaces. The property balances usable land with natural bush elements, creating both openness and privacy.
Perfectly positioned, Battunga Park Estate offers the best of both worlds, country living with town convenience. Melbourne is approximately one hour away, while Kyneton, Daylesford and Woodend are all within a comfortable 15–20-minute drive.
