Overview

Shady Oak - Breathtaking views of Mount Macedon and Hanging Rock

With breathtaking views of Mount Macedon, Hanging Rock and the Cobaw Ranges, this iconic chalet/ranch styled, architect designed home creates a stunning connection to nature on 31ha (78 ac approx) of rich fertile farmland. Crafted from materials - stone, solid timber, terracotta, brass - that are timeless, natural and comfortable, this home draws light into the entertainment and retreat spaces to highlight all the incredible details. Every aspect of the home’s design invites you to sit and stay awhile, and absorb the natural beauty and simply stunning views in every direction. Whether you’re cozy by the magnificent stone hearth fires or sitting poolside underneath the shade of the vines taking in the mountainous vistas, there are spaces to make any season or moment special. Soaring ceilings and grand yet comfortable proportions create an incredible feeling of space, creativity and style. A flexible three bedroom flowing floor plan with an external fully fitted separate office/studio, master with ensuite and walk in wardrobe, open plan kitchen dining and lounge spaces, opening onto a magnificent retreat room with stone hearth and open fire. The generous family bathroom, mud room/laundry and walk in pantry make living easy. And every aspect, every window captures another incredible scene. Outside, the heated pool experiences a stunning sunrise and sunset backdrop as you overlook Mt Macedon and Hanging Rock, while a kitchen garden, orchard, mature European trees, hydrangeas, vine covered verandahs, expansive lawns and established hedges create an idyllic environment and spaces for everyone to enjoy. The compound includes a four car garage and workshop, and the studio is fully fitted for comfortable and inspiring working from home options, or guest accommodation. Other infrastructure includes expansive rainwater storage, a machinery/hay shed, 8 paddocks, and an abundant water supply with several dams and pipelines supplying both garden irrigation systems and farm. The farmland offers flexible options - currently outsourced annual hay production, or is well suited to livestock and horses, or leasing. Shady Oak is located in one of Macedon Ranges premium locations, tranquil and private, yet only 12 minutes from Woodend and Kyneton’s Piper Street dining options. Vineyards and cellar doors are even closer. School buses run nearby for a range of primary and secondary education options including Assumption and Braemar Colleges. Melbourne is less than an hour, and the Melbourne airport is an easy 45 minute drive. ** We have obtained all information in this document from sources we believe to be reliable, however, we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
