Set high on a quiet street on the slopes of Mt Buninyong, this elevated 5,145 sqm property offers a rare combination of premium lifestyle living, creative amenity and genuine future subdivision potential (2–3 large lots STCA). With sweeping views over the Yarrowee Valley to the Enfield State Park, full town services and fibre to the premises NBN, it's an exceptional opportunity for Melbourne buyers seeking space and connectivity, with real work-from-home potential, or local families wanting room to grow and enjoy a more relaxed semi rural lifestyle. And all of this is only a few minutes' walk to the local school, cafes and shops.
Craftsman built by respected local builder Greg Smith Homes, the residence delivers enduring quality and generous proportions. Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings, multiple living zones and a well appointed kitchen with granite benchtops, Smeg appliances and a walk in pantry. The sunken lounge, formal dining and open plan family areas create a warm, inviting flow, while the king sized master suite includes a spa bath, walk in shower and separate toilet. The property also has a large home office plus three additional bedrooms. Ducted gas heating ensures winter warmth.
Outdoors, this private tree lined property excels in both lifestyle and practicality. The large alfresco area and outdoor fireplace provide year round entertaining options, while the grounds include a potable bore, 10,000 litre water tank, 6.5kW solar system, terraced kitchen gardens, greenhouse, fruit trees and an established olive grove. Stands of native trees attract birdlife. Creative buyers will appreciate the dedicated artist's studio and small blacksmith's workshop — versatile spaces for painters and sculptors – or somewhere to simply sit quietly and take in the views. A very large shed (6 car spaces) also provides outstanding opportunities for tradies, hobbyists or home based projects.
With an existing permit, and recent approvals nearby, the future subdivision potential of this property is real and compelling. The existing home sits naturally on the lower portion of the block, allowing clean separation of future lots to the rear. Two and three lot scenarios (each 1,200 sqm plus) with rural views offer long term value for owner builders or buyers seeking future flexibility with financial benefits.
This is already a premium lifestyle property, with great opportunities for further development — only 15 minutes from Ballarat and around 90 minutes from Melbourne.
