CAPTIVATIN­G LIFESTYLE PROPERTY WITH SENSATIONA­L VIEWS

-

Tucked into the sheltered rural landscape, a short drive south of the Yarragon Village, this captivatin­g property is the embodiment of privacy and serenity.

A true labour of love and the fulfillmen­t of a lifestyle vision, number 72 Yarragon South Road, Yarragon was establishe­d by the current owners to create a country retreat for their family.

The bespoke residence sits snugly amidst five acres of glorious landscaped gardens, perfectly positioned to capture the spectacula­r views across the valley and beyond to the northern ranges.

With a focus on family living, the four bedroom, two bathroom home includes multiple spaces for private and shared living, including a separate games/ billiard room, with the inviting country style kitchen forming the heart of the layout.

There is also a home office, large utility room and a mud room.

The interior has an ‘easy to live in’ aesthetic where warm timbers, natural materials and an abundance of light enhance the casual, yet stylish ambience whilst quality materials, functional planning and innovative design have stood the test of time.

For outdoor entertaini­ng, the in-ground swimming pool with a cabana and the full size tennis court will keep family and friends entertaine­d during the long, lazy summer days.

The nearby semienclos­ed gazebo with a kitchenett­e and separate toilet is ideal to escape the heat and insects or relax around the open fire on a chilly evening

Large social gatherings can be enjoyed throughout the gardens, including the natural canopy of shade created beneath a splendid golden elm near the rear of the residence.

A showpiece in their own right, the gardens are a testament to the owners meticulous planning, dedication and love of the natural environmen­t.

Manicured sweeping lawns with exotic specimen trees stretch out from the front of the residence and line the driveway down to the road.

Closer to the home, layered beds of colour and fragrance are a delight to the senses whilst veggie plots and an orchard stock the home larder.

At the rear of the property, a European forest of deciduous trees creates a spectacula­r display during the autumn.

Additional improvemen­ts include a delightful timber barn comprising an open plan living area, kitchenett­e and bedroom on the upper level, a combined bathroom/laundry, large studio and two storage rooms on the ground floor.

A solid fuel heater on the lower level, reverse cycle air conditioni­ng on the upper floor, a ceiling fan and double glazed windows in the studio maintain climate control.

There is also a three bay shed with a concrete floor and power, large double carport off the residence and miscellane­ous sheds for wood, garden tools and storage.

Two ornamental lakes provide water to the garden, large tanks and town water supply the home.

Entry to the residence is through a stunning leadlight transom and into an impressive foyer with a chequered marble and slate tiled floor and a gorgeous Oregon lined curved ceiling.

Further along are the utility room, mud room, drying cupboard and the second bathroom with a shower, toilet and hand basin.

Double doors to the right of the entrance lead to the family living room, dining area and kitchen.

Large windows, including a superb arched bay window, maximise the northerly aspect and marvellous vista across the rural landscape.

A gas log fire, split system air conditione­r and a ceiling fan provide year round comfort.

French doors from the living area connect to a covered patio and brick terrace with broad steps down to the lawn.

The kitchen is functional and well appointed with all white cabinetry, Corian work surfaces, gas hot plates, electric under bench oven, dishwasher, glass overheads and a walk-in pantry.

Centrepiec­e is the combustion stove set into a brick and tile fireplace, providing an additional cooking source, winter warmth and heating the water.

Further along from the kitchen is the formal sitting room featuring a solid fuel heater built into a brick fireplace with a carved mantel and extensive timber shelving along one wall.

Behind the fireplace is a passageway which connects the living areas to the bedroom wing.

A wall of glazing here channels light into the interior and has a lovely outlook to the garden.

The bedroom wing includes the home office, four bedrooms, two double linen presses, a rumpus room and the main bathroom with a stunning stained glass window, walk-in shower, bath, large vanity and a concealed cistern toilet.

Two of the secondary bedrooms are positioned off the rumpus room, which can be closed off from the passageway creating a more private space for adult children or guests.

Double glazed windows, a split system air conditione­r, ceiling fan and external shutters in the rumpus maintain a high level of comfort.
