Meandering paths, stone-walled garden beds filled with colourful native plants and stately eucalypts are the very image of an Australian bush lifestyle property. And this delightful home in a tranquil, semi-rural setting within walking distance to Maldon's town centre and boasting stunning views to Mount Tarrangower is picture perfect. Nicely sited on 4654 sqm (1.15-acre) with an additional portion of Crown Land fenced within the boundary, the opportunity exists for you to enjoy your slice of paradise as is, or reap the benefits of subdivision of the freehold block STCA.
The floorplan is designed to maximise relaxed living. With feature windows and glass sliders from the expansive family and dining areas opening to vine-draped verandahs and an inviting covered alfresco deck, the home not only draws the picturesque surroundings in, it invites indoor/outdoor living on an intimate or larger scale. Natural light streams into the delightful kitchen, enhancing the sleek white stone benchtops over ample cabinetry with electric cooktop and under-counter oven. A roomy breakfast bar is a great spot to sit and enjoy a coffee or light meal while taking in the property views. There are three bedrooms; two queen size, each with built-in robes. The third bedroom, a double, is currently fitted out as an excellent home office/study but could easily be returned to bedroom status if desired. Centrally located, the spacious family bathroom in neutral tones boasts a walk-in shower room, large double vanity with twin basins and excellent storage. The toilet is separate. The home has numerous additional highlights including some timber-lined ceilings, timber-look flooring through the family zones, carpeted bedrooms, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, cosy-wood-fire heating, ceiling fans, heat pump hot water service and laundry.
Set away from the home, the tradie, handyperson or hobbyist will appreciate the steel shed with garaging for two cars, concrete floor, power and workshop plus door to a single carport. There's also a second, double carport round the other side. Amongst the gardens are tangerine, lime, lemon, olive trees and veggie beds and there's room for a chicken palace. The property's old brick milking shed is a lovely reminder of a bygone era.
With tranquility and lifestyle in abundance, it's just a short walk to Maldon Golf Course and walking trails around and up to the Rock of Ages. Castlemaine is a convenient 15-minute drive. Whether as a permanent place to call home, or a relaxing weekend retreat, this property more than delivers the promise of the lifestyle you're looking for.
