A winding, shady drive leads to a brick homestead plus self-contained cottage. Here, you will find all the trappings of a comfortable country lifestyle, set in the leafy surround of a native shelter belt, with grazing lands adjoining. Inside the homestead, a palette of lightly toned timbers and bricks is complemented by northern light streaming in through broad picture windows and a comfortable, open plan, casual layout.
The main living zone is at the centre. A stunning and highly workable, updated hostess kitchen features a full span black wood timber bench top and clotted cream country-style cabinetry. Miele dishwasher, European 900mm range, endless pot drawers and walk in pantry, with a long expanse of windows looking out to paddocks and hills beyond, contribute to a dream kitchen environment. The adjoining living expanse offers ample space for big dining, and winter evenings around a huge open fire, with a mantle piece that is just one impressive piece of timber, around 4.5 metres long. Two enormous master bedrooms feature exquisite outlooks, and have adjoining ensuites and walk in robes. A beautiful sunroom adjoins one bedroom, with all-glass outlooks and a spa with full length views – simply stunning. There is a third bedroom or study, separate laundry/mud room off the kitchen. With broad, protective verandas offering summer shade and winter shelter, and a host of other features, surely the homestead is enough!?
But no! A very pretty, separate, cedar cottage, with its own verandah, is the bonus aspect to this already-complete picture. Comprising two rooms, plus a kitchenette and bathroom, the cottage is suited to B&B income, or is the ideal guest, in-law or teenage accommodation.
Outside, paddocks for the alpacas or other pets, a 4-bay lock up shed, mains water, excellent Telstra phone reception, and colourful garden displays round off this exquisite property, that is very well suited to empty nesters with visitors in mind, but equally, will please all those who seek unique, comfort, country and style. Just over 5kms from Leongatha township, and 8km to Korumburra, commuting is easy and so is the lifestyle.
