Blissful country living minutes from town
Looking to escape the hustle and bustle of town living, run some sheep or cattle and enjoy the pursuits of rural living whilst not too far from community services, then look no further than this 48 acre holding, only four kilometres from Trafalgar.
Equally suitable for the equine enthusiast, the level acreage is well drained, sheltered, hot wire fenced and divided into six main paddocks accessed via a central willow lined laneway.
Versatile sheds have the potential for stable conversion, however will also appeal to the tradesperson requiring vehicle or equipment storage.
The real star of the property is the charming 1930s homestead, extended and refurbished over time yet retaining its quintessential country character.
Lofty 12 foot ceilings, a decorative arch and wall panelling in the hallway, polished timber flooring, picture rails and the glazed front door with sidelites and transom are original features. The updated kitchen and bathroom, repainting and new carpets are more recent refurbishments.
Immaculately presented, the home has an inviting relaxed ambience with four good sized bedrooms, bathroom, laundry with a separate shower, eat-in kitchen, spacious living room and a mudroom.
A fantastic addition to the living space is an enclosed rustic styled alfresco with an impressive open fireplace and a Waterford slow combustion stove.
Popular entry is through this area, past the mudroom with a separate toilet and into the kitchen/diner.
Timber cabinetry, laminate countertops and white splash tiles create a modern country vibe, complemented by a breakfast bar and step-in corner pantry.
Quality appliances include a Smeg 900mm black cooker with canopy rangehood and a dishwasher.
Adjacent to the kitchen is the living room with a solid fuel heater set on a new slate hearth, split system air conditioner and a ceiling fan.
Sliding doors from here lead to the fourth bedroom which has direct access to the front verandah.
The remaining three bedrooms, two with substantial robe storage, the bathroom and adjoining laundry are located off the central hallway.
Tastefully refurbished, the bathroom includes a large vanity unit, bath, toilet, new tiling and tapware.
The home sits within a securely fenced house yard, meticulously maintained with manicured lawn, garden beds, a delightful wisteria arbour, brick pathways and a charming picket fence along the roadside. Further improvements include:
• Lined and powered studio or possible fifth bedroom with a verandah
• 10m x 6m steel garage with remote controlled roller doors and a concrete floor • 11m x 9m high clearance shed with power, water, pot belly stove and auto roller doors
• Adjoining two bay semi-open machinery/ hay shed
• 9m x 6m workshop with inbuilt shelving • Steel stockyards with crush and loading race
• Chicken coop, hothouse and dog run
• Fruit trees and a fantastic enclosed veggie garden
• Generous gravel hard stand for storing and maneuvering heavy vehicles
• Town water is a bonus and there is a large tank for the garden
Located only moments from Trafalgar, all of the town’s amenities, including primary and secondary schools, childcare, sporting and community groups, supermarket, shops, eateries and the V/Line station are within easy reach.
Further afield, Moe is 14 kilometres and Warragul 20 kilometres away.
