Escape to the country and maintain the best of modern living with this magnificent property set in the Brisbane Ranges and just 40 minutes from Geelong.
Set amongst 34 acres (13.78 hectares) of natural bush with three dams, this near-new home has been designed to bring the serenity of the surrounding landscape into every one of its spacious rooms.
The single-level Hebel brick home sits comfortably in its surrounds and is every bit as beautiful inside as the landscape is outside.
The stunning combined kitchen, dining and family room sits at the heart of the home with a private king-size master bedroom off to one side and another two bedrooms and rumpus room at the other end of the home.
The master bedroom includes a large walk-in robe that leads through to an equally spacious ensuite with double vanities, floor-to-ceiling tiles and a walk-in shower with frameless screen.
The other two bedrooms, with built-in robes, ceiling fans and their own rumpus room, are served by a stunning central bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiles, a walk-in shower and a soaker tub overlooking the surrounding bush.
But the living area is where it’s all at for family and friends. There’s space to spare in the lounge and dining areas with the chance to gather around the wood-burning heater in winter or head outdoors to the undercover entertaining area in summer.
The adjoining kitchen is a chef’s dream with a striking island bench, quality stainless-steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, vast spaces of stone benchtop, including dedicated and lower bench space for a workstation.
All the living and high-traffic areas feature polished concrete floors, while every window throughout the home takes in views of the bush, while high ceilings and oversize doors add to the feeling of space throughout.
As well as the undercover entertaining area, wide verandas around most of the home offer the chance to relax and take in a variety of vistas.
Other features include split-system units, a large laundry, separate toilet, double-glazed windows, security system, a separate cabin with a bedroom/living area and kitchenette and literally acres of cleared, flat ground to park cars, boats, caravans or other equipment.
And then there’s the outdoor spaces with a half basketball court, a large, fenced paddock for horses or other livestock, shedding, a pig pen, chook shed, vegie garden and a second outdoor entertaining area where you can watch for kangaroos, koalas and echidnas or a variety of native birds.
All this an easy drive to Geelong, Avalon Airport and top schools on Geelong’s northern fringe, including Kardinia International College and Covenant College, with Anakie Primary School just down the road.
