"Why we like the property" (agent perspective) Beautiful and thoughtfully planned contemporary interiors, this 4-bedroom home sits high and well back on its huge 1900m2 (approx.) allotment. Giving a nod to the '70s, it has been stylishly and completely renovated. "What the property offers" (property perspective) Brought into the 21st century with flair, the stylish interiors have welcoming crisp, clean lines and a light-filled ambiance, complimented by the warmth of the freshly polished original Baltic pine floors. The new floorplan devised for this home features a generous foyer where arched doorways sympathetically left to pay homage to the era frame the dining/living space beyond. To the left is the brand-new kitchen/family room with a swish Smeg 900mm oven, stone benchtops, and a cosy wood heater. The feature of this space is its connection to the newly built front balcony, with maintenance-free eco decking and glazed balustrading. It is reached via a bank of stacker doors, allowing seamless indoor/outdoor living with views of the countryside beyond. Through another arched doorway, the next living and dining space the original kitchen is a great place to watch TV and gather for family dinners. Or why not relax, walking through the French doors to the east deck on sunny mornings to sit with a cup of coffee and a good book? The back garden can be secured by closing each of the farm gates, making it an ideal area for small children and pets. The bedroom wing can be closed off to the living spaces. It features a stunning on-trend bathroom; and separate laundry with good storage space. All the bedrooms have lovely views of the garden, feature ceiling fans, and have built-in robes. The master bedroom features a slick walk-in robe with fitted cabinetry, as well as the original built-in robe. The addition of a superb, light-filled ensuite for the master bedroom completes the internal spaces of this wonderful renovation. And of course, your creature comforts are well taken care of with ducted heating throughout. There is a lock-up garage with a new remote-controlled door and additional onsite parking spaces. There is so much room to add your vegetable garden, a pool, or put your own touch to the landscaping, but especially there is so much space for kids to play. Merging style and comfort, this delightful home, equally suited to downsizers and families, is only a short walk into the village, rail, schools, cafes, medical centres, and all that Woodend and the Macedon Ranges have to offer. "What you love about the property" (vendor perspective) We've loved how light and welcoming this home feels throughout the day, and the views from the front balcony are always beautiful. The open-plan living area has been our favourite space to gather, especially with the fire going in winter or the doors open on summer evenings. The garden and outdoor areas have been perfect for relaxing and entertaining.
