39 Christopher Crescent
Woodend, VIC 3442

Set on approximately 5 acres of established, park-like grounds, this substantial Woodend property offers a rare combination of space, privacy and flexibility, featuring a large family residence alongside a fully self-contained cottage ideal for multigenerational living or rental opportunities.

The main residence is beautifully framed by a sweeping full-length verandah that overlooks expansive lawns, terraced gardens, and mature trees which contribute to the property's distinctive character. Upon entering, a wide entrance hall leads to multiple living zones including formal lounge and dining areas, seamlessly flowing into a generous open-plan kitchen, meals, and family space designed for comfortable everyday living.

Interiors are enhanced with decorative wall panelling and solid Blackbutt flooring upstairs. The kitchen is outfitted with modern Bosch appliances, including an induction cooktop, while the bathrooms throughout the home are well-appointed to meet family needs.

Upstairs, a light-filled living area opens onto a spectacular, large elevated balcony, providing a serene retreat for relaxation or entertaining, with picturesque views across the gardens and towards Mount Macedon. The home comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an oversized main suite featuring a walk-in robe, ensuite, and private balcony. Additionally, there is a study and a beautifully appointed central bathroom upstairs, complemented by an extra bathroom on the ground floor.

Heating and cooling have been thoughtfully integrated, with underfloor heating in tiled ground floor areas, wood-fired hydronic heating throughout the home, and reverse cycle air conditioning in the living area. Character features such as high ceilings and decorative detailing further enhance the home's appeal.

A fully detached one-bedroom cottage offers genuine flexibility for extended family, guest accommodation, or rental income, complete with its own heating and cooling systems, providing a private and functional living space separate from the main residence.

The property benefits from extensive infrastructure including solar power, a large garage with substantial storage capacity, multiple sheds suitable for workshop, storage or rural use, and a semi-underground wine cellar.

The grounds have been cultivated over decades and showcase a significant collection of mature trees, including 50-year-old oaks, linden trees, various species of pine, and a flowering Japanese crab apple, complemented by native eucalypts. Mature shade trees create multiple outdoor zones for entertaining and relaxation, including a spa nestled within a garden setting.

Two dams equipped with pumps support a reticulated garden watering system. There is also substantial tank storage for the house, totaling 54,000 litres. A productive orchard featuring stone fruits, berries, citrus, and a dedicated chook house reinforces the property's self-sufficient capabilities, while open rear paddocks provide ample space for animals such as alpacas, sheep, or a pony.

Privately positioned on sealed roads and just minutes from Woodend township, the property offers convenient access to cafés, schools, and transport, while maintaining a strong sense of rural seclusion.
