67 Racecourse Road

Affectionately known as the "Gingerbread Cottage", 67 Racecourse Road is a delightful double brick home brimming with character, personality, and a productive, private garden that's taken years to cultivate. If you've been dreaming of the country life with all the benefits of community, convenience, and connection to the city, this is the property that makes it possible. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom older-style construction sits on just over a quarter acre. An open-plan living area creates a relaxed, connected feel throughout, and you'll be comfortable year-round with a choice of split-system air conditioning, gas heating, and a wood burner, perfect for those crisp Macedon Ranges evenings. Solar power keeps running costs down, and instantaneous gas hot water ensures modern reliability. The functional kitchen features gas cooking and a dishwasher. An oversized master bedroom retreat offers ample built-in storage and a private ensuite. The two remaining bedrooms are cleverly designed to maximise every inch, featuring a fun loft and bunk system that will make them a hit with younger occupants. Plantation shutters in each of the bedrooms add to the charm. Step outside and the property truly reveals itself. The established garden is a lush, fully fenced sanctuary ideal for kids and pets or enthusiastic gardeners, complete with a decked pergola area for those slow mornings and lazy afternoons. A highly productive collection of fruit trees, a secure chicken coop, and a fenced and freshly dug vegetable garden are primed and ready to support healthy, self-sufficient country living. Town water is connected, with rainwater collection available to supplement the garden's needs. The private and sheltered carport with ample off-street parking add practical convenience along with basic garden shedding for tools and equipment. The lifestyle credentials are outstanding. Riddells Creek has earned a reputation as one of the Macedon Ranges' most welcoming and community-minded townships. You're just 10 minutes from Gisborne and Romsey, 20 minutes from Sunbury and Woodend, and with the train station barely a minute's drive away, Southern Cross Station is only around 35 minutes by V/Line. A realistic commuter option without the compromise of outer suburban living. This property will resonate with young families, avid gardeners, tree changers and anyone wanting a quieter, more intentional pace of life, a private garden paradise where you can create the life you've always dreamed of.
