Follow the long, tree-lined driveway and the setting opens up to rolling paddocks, established trees and a brick homestead with wide verandahs front and back. Set well back from the road, 45 Sherwood Road gives you the privacy to enjoy a slow morning on the verandah and the space to spend the whole day outdoors.
Inside, exposed brick, timber-framed windows and a freestanding wood heater give the home a warmth that suits its setting. The kitchen has sage-green cabinetry, timber benchtops, a tiled splashback and a walk-in pantry. There's room to pull up a stool at the breakfast bar or gather around the table in the adjoining meals area, where glass doors open to the rear verandah. Two separate living rooms give the family space to spread out, with broad windows bringing the garden outlook inside.
The main bedroom sits at its own end of the home, complete with an ensuite, walk-in robe and adjoining retreat. Four further bedrooms share a family bathroom with a freestanding bath, and the five-bedroom layout gives you the flexibility to set one up as a home office.
Beyond the lawn, approximately 25 acres take in open paddocks, pockets of bushland and a dam. Two sheds, measuring approximately 19.4 × 7.5 metres and 8.4 × 4.5 metres, give you room for machinery, a workshop and all the gear that comes with living on acreage.
Head into Tynong for a coffee at Granite Café, with Tynong Station, St Thomas Aquinas College and Pakenham Racing Club also nearby. It's a country setting that feels tucked away while keeping everyday trips within easy reach.
