Set on 1 acre (approx.) of magnificent grounds, this beautifully composed country home delivers a lifestyle of elegance, scale, and quiet refinement. Introduced by a circular driveway and framed by established plantings, the home presents with a sense of arrival befitting its stature.
A magnificent gabled veranda entry reveals interiors of generous proportion, with rich Tasmanian Oak flooring underfoot, and expansive French windows that draw in natural light and connect the home to its surrounding landscape. Expansive open plan living presents a lounge, family, and meals zones.
The kitchen is executed in a classic provincial style, appointed with 40mm stone surfaces and a substantial island with farmhouse sinks. A 900mm upright Westinghouse oven and Bosch dishwasher are complemented by a full butler's pantry, delivering both easy entertaining credibility and daily practicality.
Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, comprising four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom is appointed with a walk-in robe and a fully tiled ensuite featuring a frameless glass niched shower and floating stone vanity. A separate wing hosts three additional robed bedrooms alongside a study or 5th bedroom, serviced by a central bathroom with mosaic feature tiling, matte black tapware, and a bath. A rumpus within this wing provides further flexibility for family living.
Wide, sweeping verandas extend around the home, offering multiple spaces for quiet retreat and outdoor enjoyment. A grapevine-trellised rear veranda and expansive covered entertaining area overlook the established grounds, reinforcing the home's connection to its setting.
Occupying 4036m2 (approx.) with a gentle elevation, the property captures views towards rolling mountain ranges across lush pastoral scenery. The gardens are richly layered, with mature fig, apple, lemon, mandarin, nectarine, and pomegranate trees, alongside conifers, gum and ash trees, walnut, pencil pines, and wisteria. Seasonal plantings of roses, bulbs, and flowering borders enhance the sense of colour and softness, while a vegetable garden supports a productive lifestyle. A fenced area caters to children and pets, while a magical cubby house sparks curiosity.
Further features include a 2-car garage with workshop, ducted heating, split system heating and cooling, an updated laundry with retractable ladder access to extensive attic storage, 26 solar panels, 2 x 36,360-litre water tanks, and a chook shed.
Positioned within a tightly held rural pocket, the home is less than a 15-minute walk to the local primary school, with Darraweit Guim offering a quiet village setting within easy reach of Wallan, Romsey, and Lancefield, and approximately one hour from Melbourne's CBD.
