Set on 7,227m² (approx.) of magnificent grounds and accessed via a long, tree-lined drive, this beautiful rural estate fuses olde-world charm with luxurious modern elegance, with breathtaking views of Mt Macedon and leafy pastoral views always taking centre stage. Updated and recently renovated, the property features multiple living and entertaining areas, spacious accommodation, exquisite gardens, and practical infrastructure, including a workshop, stand-alone office space, and a studio/shed-inspiring creativity and functionality. Welcoming and spacious, the main residence opens through French doors to a living area framing picture-perfect Mount Macedon views and featuring wide-plank flooring, an Art Deco-style ceiling rose, picture rails, a feature fireplace, and mantle. At its heart, a gorgeous kitchen has been beautifully updated in sympathy with its inherent timeless appeal, boasting stone surfaces, farmhouse sinks, soft-close drawers, brilliant pantry storage, a Bosch dishwasher, and a 900mm-wide oven/5-zone cooktop. The equally impressive formal dining area features a fireplace, window seat, and built-in shelving. This space opens to the back veranda and romantic garden, where trellised arbours and garden beds filled with hollyhocks, roses, a mini-orchard, and vegetable beds offer a delightful connection to nature. Accommodation consists of three bedrooms, with the master bedroom showcasing expansive windows with mountain views, a walk-in robe, and a tastefully updated ensuite featuring classic tapware, a twin stone vanity, 60cm large-format tiles, a walk-in niched shower, and heated towel rail. Thoughtfully updated, the central bathroom matches the same luxurious theme, and includes a stone vanity, a frameless glass shower-over-bath, and Mediterranean-style floor tiles. The home also includes air-conditioning and ceiling fans. The gardens are a standout feature, abundant with hydrangeas, lavender, and camellias. To the north side of the main residence, a large copse of Monterey Cypress provide protection, while a privacy hedge of young conifers lines the eastern boundary. Towards the western boundary, a converted shipping container serves as a smart home office with power, ample natural light, and an outdoor entertaining area. Additionally, a converted garage/store accommodates two vehicles or functions as a workshop, with an upstairs loft area bathed in natural light-ideal for guest accommodation. A separate shed/cottage with its own porch offers a versatile space suitable for use as an art/yoga/meditation studio or extra guest accommodation. Offering an unparalleled lifestyle of blissful rural privacy without compromising on convenience, it's located within a 5-minute drive of Woodend village shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, primary school, and V-Line train station.
