Idyllic country property epitomises a magnificent Federation era estate secluded within dense and towering Cyprus bordering approximately 4.8 hectares – 12 acres.
Wrapped in a return verandah lavishly decorated with timber fretwork, the residence is topped with terracotta chimney pots attesting to many fireplaces, 2 adorned with marble mantles. Richly permeated with period-style, ornate plasterwork graces ceilings that soar above bay windows, corbelled arches, finely finished architraves and skirting-boards plus Oregon floorboards salvaged from a vintage church.
Genuinely formal lounge, grandly proportioned family retreat and 5 generous bedrooms and a large study or 6th bedroom offer extravagant accommodation. Marble floor tiles and brass fittings feature in en suite and bathroom with clawfoot tub. Authentic provincial-style kitchen contains 900mm cooker and 2 RCSSs add comfort.
French doors and casement windows lead to outdoor entertaining area and salt-chlorinated solar-heated pool. Parkland grounds encompass 12×16m barn, 12×6m shed plus 88,000lt capacity tanks, huge dam and plenty of paddock space ideal for equestrian enthusiasts.
Just 25 minutes to Geelong, 35 minutes to Lorne, 20 minutes to Anglesea, Torquay and extensive shopping at Waurn Ponds plus under 10 minutes to Moriac pre and primary schools, maternal child health centre, general store, farmer's market, saddler and more. Bus to primary and secondary schools stops at the gate, plus State Forest is 1km away for horse riding, bushwalking and bicycling. This truly is an extraordinarily sumptuous rural estate.
