In Conjunction With Lisa Fowler 0418 557 222, Mount Macedon Realty.
Grand in scale and captivating in its beauty, this masterfully crafted homestead offers an unrivalled country lifestyle amidst meticulously manicured gardens, with the northern vistas of Mount Macedon providing a dramatic backdrop to daily life. Evoking a legacy and a history well beyond its years, this mesmerising property spans approximately 5 acres, mere minutes from the Trading Post Cafe and General Store, Macedon Railway and close to an array of wineries, nationally significant gardens, cafes and restaurants.
Beyond a discreet street entrance, a tree-lined driveway leads to a picturesque setting, where an ornamental dam, gracefully sheltered by a weeping willow, sets the tone for the charm of an old English country estate. Inside, impeccable craftsmanship fosters a deep sense of connection, with Jarrah floorboards from the Maribyrnong Munition Factory, Tasmanian Huon Pine benchtops, a vintage Rayburn from the Old Whistlestop pub, and original cedar doors contributing to its distinct character.
A generous dining room is served by a gourmet timber kitchen boasting a LaCanche oven, a large central island and a large walk-in pantry. A series of French doors open the two living spaces to a broad north-facing verandah in one direction, the ideal venue for year-round relaxation with views to Mount Macedon and a central garden courtyard to the other, peaceful with a water feature and established cottage gardens. Upstairs, five expansive bedrooms, including the opulent main suite with mountain views and a luxurious en suite featuring a clawfoot bath, are complemented by a second well-appointed bathroom. The standout feature, a separate self-contained barn, offers exceptional versatility, perfect for sophisticated entertaining, a home business, or guest accommodation, with seamless access to the central courtyard garden.
An oversized 3-car garage constructed in timber, abundant water storage, a fire-pit area and kitchen gardens features throughout the grounds, with extensive features including laundry, sunroom/mudroom, an open fireplace, and automated gated entry.
