An acreage offering of architectural distinction, this Fasham Johnson residence delivers a compelling lifestyle setting enhanced by an inground solar-heated, salt-chlorinated pool and beautifully established surrounds.
Set into the landscape and celebrating mid-century modern character, the double-brick, steel-frame home reveals exposed beams, timber-lined ceilings, and concrete block walls, with expansive glazing throughout capturing verdant garden outlooks and drawing natural light deep into the interiors.
A subtle north orientation enriches the living domains, where the formal lounge with wood-fuelled heater and adjoining dining area with clerestory windows create a warm and inviting environment. The updated kitchen is both considered and functional, appointed with bullnose Caesarstone benchtops, soft-close cabinetry, French-inspired detailing, an induction cooktop, wall oven and grill, and a Bosch dishwasher, with clear sightlines to the pool area. Adjoining meals and living zones continue the sense of connection, complemented by an additional wood-fuelled heater.
Outside, a paved pergola transitions to the poolside entertaining area, creating a relaxed setting for gatherings.
Accommodation comprises four bedrooms or three bedrooms plus a study. The primary suite features an updated ensuite with shower, stone undermount vanity, and skylights. Positioned within their own wing, two additional bedrooms are served by an updated main bathroom with frameless glass shower-over-bath and stone undermount vanity, while the 4th bedroom offers flexibility as a study.
The 1 hectare (approx.) grounds are thoughtfully arranged, with a pebbled entry landscape incorporating a fire pit area, retaining walls, and native plantings including wattle and bottlebrush. Surrounding the home, seasonal plantings and structured greenery provide year-round interest, while sweeping lawns extend to fruit trees, gums, and eucalypts. Two paddocks offer further versatility, ideal for a pony or two!
Additional features include an oversized double garage with internal access, a concrete-based shed, solar panels, reverse-cycle air conditioning, passive heating, 2 x 10,000-litre water tanks, ceiling fans, and ample infrastructure to support a rural lifestyle.
Positioned within the peaceful Emu Bottom locale, the property enjoys a natural setting with convenient access to Sunbury township, approximately 8 minutes away, offering shops, cafés, restaurants, and train services, alongside a selection of quality schools and childcare options. Dreamy mid-century living at its rural finest!
