7ha/ 17 acres of unique lifestyle living with In ground pool.
Located approx 20 kms/ 15 minutes from Horsham, set alongside a tranquil creek with picturesque mountain views.
Originally built in 1993, you have all the modern upgrades but all the charm & character of a bygone era. This immaculate country style home (approx 500 m2 under roof including approx. 200m2 of jarrah decking under the veranda), impressive 25mt long hallway, dado panelling, timber & stained glass windows, ceiling roses, polished Baltic timber floors, 10' high ceilings, all recreated into a unique home that cannot be easily replicated.
Complete with a magnificent lounge with open fire, timber kitchen with breakfast bar, 900mm Emilia freestanding stainless steel gas cooktop/electric oven, S/S dishwasher and walk in pantry, just as you would expect to see in country lifestyle magazines.
Living quarters consist of 4 large bedrooms & large office, the spacious master bedroom has its own wood heater & is complimented with a walk in robe and ensuite that has been tastefully fitted out with a red gum vanity & timber floor.
Keeping with the theme the main bathroom has a claw foot bath as a feature, along with separate shower and vanity. A very spacious laundry with mountain views should make the task of washing & ironing easier.
There should be no shortage of friends and family dropping in to take a swim in the pool, which has been set amongst the established gardens and green lawns. The modern pool is fully fenced, paved and comes complete with solar heating and large shade sail. Even the kids are well catered for with a large tree house, slide and sandpit all set in the shade of a large gum tree.
Outside improvements include a quality 9m x 16m steel framed shed, all concrete floor, power, 2 roller doors and additional concrete pad used as a wash bay. Located in the front paddock is a multi-purpose shed used originally as a horse shelter with feed area. Other shedding includes an open fronted storage shed and chicken pens.
Rainwater supply is via a filtered & UV treatment system to the house (4x 30,000lt poly tanks, currently all full), GWM pipeline water is connected to another 30,000lt tank and is used for the garden and to irrigate approx 1.5 acres of grape vines. A catchment dam set amongst trees can also be utilised. The free-standing wood heater in the kitchen/living area is also ducted to 3 B/R's & lounge room areas, two evaporative coolers and ceiling fans will keep the large home cool in summer.
Always dreamed of being self-sufficient? Enjoy a sustainable organic vegetable garden, including raised garden beds (wicking beds), 18 assorted fruit trees, vineyard and chook house. The acres have been recently fenced into several smaller paddocks to allow easy care of livestock. The house yard and gardens have been professionally fenced with quality small wire fencing to keep the kids and family pets safe.
Sit on the veranda after a hard day's work and enjoy the spectacular sunsets over the vineyard, or if you are an early riser watch the sun rise over the Grampians filtered by the gum trees along the Burnt Creek.
