Experience a family friendly escape from the everyday with ample space to relax, entertain and live, set on just under four acres; an easy 12 minutes from the Bendigo CBD.
An architecturally pleasing façade establishes the tone for this cleverly designed single-level home built by local builder, Russell Parsons. A home of grand proportions, it is elegant yet does not feel pretentious with a focus on relaxed living and the practicalities of family life.
Crisp, contemporary clean lines create cohesion and flow throughout the multiple living areas of the home. A wide entrance draws you straight ahead to the informal open plan living area, part of the hub which includes kitchen and dining. To the left, the more formal lounge. Double doors allow the theatre room to be closed off from the lounge for privacy and a study with built-in storage is well positioned on the right, close to the entry for those working from home.
Stone benchtops and electric appliances blend elegance and functionality in the cook’s kitchen. An oversize island bench creates a statement and opens onto the dining area that can comfortably accommodate seating for twelve. Indoor/outdoor entertaining is easy with the covered alfresco that seamlessly connects the open plan living and inground pool.
Storage is a feature of the home. In addition to a walk-in linen there is a storeroom accessed via the garage, floor to ceiling cupboards in the laundry and all the bedrooms have built-in storage. Three bedrooms are queen size, the master a king with luxurious ensuite bathroom including spa bath. The fifth bedroom is set up as a games room but could easily accommodate a double bed. There are two powder rooms and the family bathroom has an external door for easy access after swimming.
In addition to the pool and alfresco deck for outdoor eating, a pergola with fire pit is a great place for casual evenings. And for the kids, a dedicated kids’ zone with cubby house and play centre.
The practical items have not been forgotten either. An 8m x 7.5m shed and 6m x 8m remote door garage (under roofline) are perfect for tools and vehicles. The property is connected to mains water and sewer but also includes 44,000 litres of rainwater storage for home and garden use. There are vegetable plots, a chook run and a 5kW solar system.
Additional features of the property include:
• Ducted vacuuming
• Ducted electric heating and cooling plus gas log fire to the lounge
• Salt chlorinated, solar heated in-ground pool
• Large dam and bush area
• Computerised watering system in place that can be reestablished
Enjoy the benefits of this acreage lifestyle property less than 15 minutes from the centre of Bendigo, or take advantage of recent local development with potential subdivision (STCA).
