Natural Beauty
Tucked away on 14.4 acres (approx) of private bushland, this three-bedroom off-grid home in the style of Alistair Knox sits harmoniously within its setting, offering the ideal living-in-nature lifestyle. Built of post and beam construction and infilled with recycled red bricks in 1983, the property is within a 5-minute drive or a short bike ride of historic Maldon that provides a primary school, a supermarket, retail and cafes, 20 minutes to Castlemaine for additional amenities and the train to Melbourne, 30 minutes to Bendigo, 1 hour and 40 minutes to Melbourne and a 15-minute drive to the Steiner School.
The partially renovated home features a north-facing living with a high cathedral-style ceiling, a solid wood heater inset into a brick surround, and a fantastic 1970s display cabinet and bi-fold door. The kitchen and dining have external access to a north-facing patio overlooking the private garden and leading to a paved entertaining area. The kitchen provides a Nectre Big Bakers Oven Wood Heater, a freestanding gas cooktop with an oven, a walk-in pantry and sufficient storage. Stairs lead to a second-level bedroom featuring a Juliet window overlooking the living, a raked ceiling, a skylight and concealed storage. Two further bedrooms have new carpet, one with built-in robes. A contemporary bathroom has a walk-in shower, a wall-hung vanity and a separate toilet. The generous laundry works as a mud room and has external access. Eco credentials include off-grid solar with a 4.4kw array and generous battery backup, highly insulated and on-tank water with bottled gas. This home does require your cosmetic finishing touches.
The property includes a 6m x 2.4m studio, a 9m x 6m garage with power, a concrete floor and office space, and a 6.5m x 6m carport. Three water tanks supply the house and the garden, and the grounds include a raised veggie garden, a chicken pen, a dog run and a large dam set within the bush. The native garden integrates into the bush surroundings with meandering brick pathways, landscaped granite boulders, and the seasonal Porcupine Creek. Extensive bushland restoration has been undertaken to return the bush to its natural beauty.
With the song of birds and abundant wildlife, this near-completed renovated home offers an eco-lifestyle surrounded by natural beauty, making it perfect for those seeking an eco-friendly lifestyle and a peaceful retreat as a home base or weekend escape.
