Tucked away just minutes from the heart of Woodend, this enchanting storybook-style residence is set on approximately 4.6 acres (1.89ha) of peaceful Macedon Ranges countryside. Beyond the gates and winding driveway, a sense of calm immediately takes hold as the home reveals itself among established trees and open grounds, with relaxing views across a picturesque dam and jetty where native birdlife and visiting wildlife create a truly idyllic setting.
A charming weatherboard façade, a classic brick chimney and welcoming veranda introduce the home's warm character. Inside, light filled interiors showcase exposed beams, skylights, polished timber floors and textured wall panelling, creating a welcoming blend of rustic charm and contemporary comfort. The main living area is centred around a cosy wood fire, while multiple reverse-cycle split systems ensure year-round climate comfort.
The country inspired kitchen features stone benchtops, quality appliances and generous pantry storage, flowing effortlessly into the dining space with sliding doors opening to a private paved courtyard framed by a stone retaining wall, the perfect place for relaxed entertaining or quiet moments outdoors. The versatile floorplan also includes a second living zone that opens to the front deck, while three spacious bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom and recently updated ensuite.
Two flexible loft spaces accessed via retractable stairs offer excellent options for guest accommodation, a children's retreat or home office. Outdoors, the grounds combine cleared spaces with natural bushland, providing privacy and room to explore. Kangaroos, wombats, echidnas, and abundant birdlife regularly visit the grounds, reinforcing the sense of connection to the surrounding landscape. A large garage with automatic door offers excellent storage and workshop space, complemented by an adjoining studio ideal for remote work supported by fixed-wireless NBN.
Designed for comfortable country living, the home also features a new premium UV water filtration system that filters the entire house, supporting a clean and reliable water supply alongside its all-electric lifestyle credentials, and includes an EV charger for convenient electric vehicle charging. Peaceful, private and only minutes from Woodend's cafés, schools, shops and V/Line station, this beautiful property delivers the perfect balance of rural tranquillity and everyday convenience, just over an hour from Melbourne.
