Overview

Architectural Masterpiece at the Foot of Hanging Rock: Sustainable Living in the Macedon Ranges

Nestled at the base of the iconic Hanging Rock in Newham, this exceptional property combines architectural brilliance and sustainable living on 5.5 serene acres in the picturesque Macedon Ranges. Just five minutes from Woodend's shops, cafes, medical facilities, and V-Line rail to Melbourne and Bendigo, this passive-solar, energy-efficient straw-bale home is the culmination of a visionary collaboration between the vendor and a renowned Daylesford architect. The home's charm begins with its elegant design, including a spiral staircase with under-stair storage leading to a landing with three bedrooms, all featuring built-in robes. A fitted study provides the perfect work-from-home space, with sweeping views of Hanging Rock offering an inspiring backdrop. The master suite includes an ensuite, a private retreat, and stunning vistas of the Cobaw Ranges, while the heritage-style main bathroom boasts a luxurious clawfoot bath. The home's craftsmanship is evident in the quality cabinetry throughout, enhancing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Argon-filled, European-imported double-glazed windows ensure warmth and comfort year-round, while clever under-window storage solutions provide ample space. A Canadian "Tempcast" masonry heater complements the passive solar design, delivering energy-efficient heating. The French provincial kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring marble and natural timber finishes, induction cooking, and a separate walk-in pantry, and island bench ideal for entertaining family and friends. The soaring 2.7m ceilings downstairs and 2.4m ceilings upstairs create an inviting sense of space. Solar hot water further underscores the property's commitment to sustainability, with abundant water storage provided by 60,000 litres of tank capacity. Outdoors, the property offers a peaceful haven for wildlife, including kangaroos, echidnas, wombats, and koalas, along with vibrant birdlife. The low-maintenance native garden features mature trees and thoughtfully revegetated local flora. A standalone 10m x 6m double garage provides secure parking and additional storage. This property is a masterpiece of design, sustainability, and natural beauty, offering a tranquil lifestyle just moments from modern conveniences. With its unparalleled charm and thoughtful features, this home is an opportunity not to be missed. Embrace the magic of Hanging Rock and make it yours today!
