Country living in a glorious setting

Set amongst the stunning backdrop of the Strzelecki Ranges, this 62 acre property is the perfect retreat for a quiet, private lifestyle, yet is only 12 kilometres from the charming village of Yarragon and the freeway. Improvements include a tastefully renovated weatherboard residence, Colorbond garage and workshop, hay shed, sundry rustic timber sheds, hen house and quality steel stockyards with a crush and loading race. Both the garage and the workshop have a concrete floor and power. The acreage is cleared with some bush and is well fenced into six paddocks with good shelter for stock.

Water is sourced from a dam plus large tanks for the home and garden. Refreshed and appealing, the residence includes three bedrooms, central bathroom, modern kitchen, open plan living area, utilities room and two toilets. Across the north westerly aspect a broad, partially covered deck allows entry and a sunny spot to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. An additional deck at the rear adds further outdoor living space with lovely views of the picturesque rural landscape from the elevated position. Hardwood floors throughout the home are original and create a relaxed ambience to the interior. Located off the entry are the main bedroom with builtin robes, bedroom two, a bank of storage cupboards and the bathroom with a corner spa, vanity and a toilet. Central to the plan is the living area and kitchen. Modern and stylish, the kitchen highlights dark blue cabinetry, off white bench tops and polished chrome hardware. Appliances include a 900mm stainless steel cooker and an integrated dishwasher.

A homely feature is the wood fired oven set into the original brick fireplace.

From the living area a door leads to the rear access, the laundry with the second toilet and bedroom three. Hydronic heating, full insulation and a solid fuel heater in the living area maintain comfort during the cooler months. Plantation shutters in the bedrooms, solar hot water and NBN wireless internet are further inclusions. Mature gardens around the residence are well maintained and there are three veggie plots for home grown produce.

A glorious setting, modern comforts and space for a variety of rural pursuits, this is what country living about.
