Open the front door and the day slows down. A period weatherboard home sits on 813sqm (approx.), looking out across paddocks of ancient gums, poplars and green pasture. The view is borrowed, and it never looks the same twice. Castlemaine is six minutes away.
Soft grey weatherboards, white-framed double-hung windows and a timber-edged porch welcome you in. Inside, leadlight glows along the central hallway and catches the morning. High ceilings lift every room, and a soft palette lets the light do the talking. Timber floors lead you toward the back of the house.
At the rear, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen faces north and fills with sun. This is where the day gathers. Stone benchtops and a wraparound bench invite casual breakfasts and long conversations. There is a gas cooktop, an undermount oven and a dishwasher. Step out to the alfresco deck, with its ceiling fan and view over the back garden, for slow evenings outdoors. A ramp to the deck keeps everyone included.
Three bedrooms sit off the hall, two of them front-facing. The main bedroom is a calm retreat, with a large walk-in robe and a spacious ensuite with a shower, toilet and vanity. The second bedroom has built-in robes. The third has timber dado panelling and a built-in robe. Soft carpet underfoot makes all three easy places to rest. The bathroom has a freestanding bath for unhurried soaks, a shower and a vanity, with a separate toilet. A euro laundry keeps the routine simple, and ducted heating and cooling keep every room comfortable through the seasons. The residence is 112sqm (approx.), with a further 19sqm of alfresco.
Outside, the landscaped garden is framed by stone walling and native plantings that settle into the landscape. An integrated solar system helps keep running costs down. The garage at the rear is joined by a wide gravel driveway, with room for the caravan, trailer or boat.
Move-in ready and beautifully presented, this is a home to arrive at and stay. Campbells Creek, with the Mount Alexander region on your doorstep.
