One of the area's most beautiful historic homes, this former station-masters house is located down a quiet country lane in the peaceful hamlet of Taradale just five minutes drive from Malmsbury station, and 15 minutes from the bustling neighbouring Castlemaine and Kyneton townships.
A tree-changers dream, this picture-perfect country house boasts seven rooms including a huge master bedroom, spacious lounge and living area with open fireplace, and a large provincial kitchen featuring rustic Baltic benches and shelves, a mezzanine-loft and a period cast iron wood heater. Offering countless period and modern features, the house is fitted with new split system heating/cooling in the master, living room and kitchen, and boasts polished Baltic flooring throughout, a renovated bathroom, and separate toilet and laundry.
Set on approximately 0.37 an acre (1,518m2) with town water, this unrivaled property comes complete with a chicken-coop, an orchard of apple and quince trees, raised veggie boxes, an original old dairy and garden shed, a 110 year old ash and stunning views of the surrounding countryside. An above-ground fully-decked heated swimming pool boasts views of the hills beyond the perfect spot for sunset swims and drinks. So country-style, the house also offers pats with resident neighbour Emu the emu.
Melbourne commuters, tree-changers and young families interested in all the area has to offer will love the location - the house is a short walk to the celebrated Taradale Primary School and local amenities including the Taradale Wine & Produce and General Stores.
