Phone Enquiry ID: 235761 Nestled among the trees on five acres of native bushland, this enchanting four-bedroom home offers a rare opportunity to embrace a slower pace of life surrounded by nature, birdsong and breathtaking scenery. A haven for those seeking a quiet retreat, the property combines comfort, character and self-sufficiency with the beauty of a living Australian landscape. Kangaroos, kookaburras and an abundance of native wildlife are regular visitors, while the surrounding bushland provides privacy, tranquillity and an ever-changing backdrop through the seasons. At the heart of the home, a light-filled open-plan living space creates an inviting place to gather and unwind. A wood-burning heater provides warmth and ambience through the cooler months, while split-system air conditioning ensures year-round comfort. The country-style kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, with expansive windows capturing magnificent sunrise and sunset views and drawing the outdoors in. Three generous bedrooms and a family bathroom on the ground floor provide flexibility for visiting family and friends, while reliable high-speed internet makes working from home both practical and enjoyable. Upstairs, the spacious master retreat feels as though it sits among the treetops. Complete with ensuite and built-in robes, it opens onto a large deck where morning coffee is accompanied by birdsong and evening drinks are enjoyed beneath spectacular sunsets. Adding further versatility is a separate studio created from a historic local schoolhouse. With sweeping views across the surrounding hills, it offers endless possibilities as a home office, artist's studio, guest accommodation or peaceful creative retreat. The property is thoughtfully equipped for a rewarding country lifestyle. A workshop and laundry sit adjacent to the home, while generous storage provides ample room for bicycles, camping equipment and outdoor gear. Established vegetable wicking beds, a productive chicken coop and a 3kW solar system support sustainable living, while the double carport offers potential for future EV charging. Located within a highly regarded conservation area renowned for its rare native orchids, the property also enjoys a unique connection to the region's artistic heritage. The nearby Dunmoochin Art Foundation has fostered generations of Australian artists since the 1960s, and the property's own picturesque black dam has inspired many local painters. Despite its remarkable sense of seclusion, convenience remains close at hand. The vibrant township of Hurstbridge is just 10 minutes away, offering cafés, shops, community services and a train connection to Melbourne, while several quality primary schools are within easy reach. If you've been searching for a place where nature, creativity and lifestyle come together, this beautiful bushland sanctuary may be exactly what you've been waiting for.
