Overview
This rare lifestyle property offers a unique opportunity with its combination of two separate homes set on approximately 10.37 hectares (about 25 acres) of gently undulating rural landscape. Perfectly positioned on the fringe of Hesket, it caters especially well to multi-generational families, those seeking guest quarters or potential additional income via a second dwelling (subject to council approval).
The principal residence is an architect-designed home completed in 1990, beautifully renovated and boasting a private setting within established gardens. Its design emphasizes connection to the surrounding nature, with expansive northern views across rolling pastures and towards Mount Crystal. The spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and multiple living areas are enhanced by large picture windows and a distinctive French-inspired three-sided wood heater that anchors the living space.
The kitchen is a standout feature, with quality stone benchtops, custom cabinetry, a bespoke island bench, walk-in pantry and premium Miele appliances, designed to accommodate both everyday family use and entertaining. Comfortable living is amplified with solid Blackbutt timber floors, partial double glazing, a dedicated laundry/mudroom, a powder room, and a 14-panel solar power array contributing to practical sustainability.
The home's four spacious bedrooms include a master suite with a dressing room and ensuite, while bathrooms feature stylish finishes like concrete basins and brushed brass taps, blending aesthetics with practicality.
Complementing the main house is a charming original weatherboard cottage located privately at the northern end of the property. With four bedrooms, an open living area, bathroom, laundry, and a north-facing deck, this home supports independent lifestyle options for extended family, guests, or potential bed and breakfast operations (subject to approvals).
External features cater well to rural living and hobby farming, including three fenced paddocks, an animal shelter, substantial shedding, a double carport, and three water tanks. A delightful treehouse adds a whimsical touch for family enjoyment. The land offers accessible, usable spaces surrounded by natural beauty and a peaceful setting.
Despite the rural outlook, essential services and conveniences are close at hand. Nearby primary schools, shopping villages, and recreational attractions of the Macedon Ranges like wineries and farmers' markets round out a lifestyle that balances tranquility and connectivity.
This dual home property on sizeable land offers families and those seeking flexible rural living an exceptional and distinctive country lifestyle opportunity.
