About this property

Claim the peace, privacy and panorama you've been chasing with this exceptional 40-acre lifestyle property, perfectly set up for horses and cattle and framed by sweeping views across rolling pasture to the Kinglake Ranges. Set well back from the road, this as-new 45sq (approx.) residence delivers a contemporary, high-end take on country lifestyle living, with an intelligently zoned single-level design incorporating four distinct living zones and beautifully separated parents' and children's wings for enhanced family functionality, flexibility and harmony. At the heart of the home, a vast open-plan living and dining domain enjoys a desirable northerly aspect and a warming wood-fire heater, while full-length windows draw the countryside into everyday life. The entertainer's kitchen is equally impressive, appointed with stone benchtops, a large island breakfast bench, outstanding storage and a Belling Richmond Deluxe 90cm dual-fuel range cooker, so you can cook, host and gather with the view as your backdrop. The privately zoned parents' domain offers a true retreat, featuring a dressing room, deluxe ensuite and its own living space, while the children's wing comprises three robed bedrooms, a glamorous family bathroom and a large retreat for relaxed downtime. A dedicated media room brings everyone together on movie nights; outside, an expansive entertaining terrace provides the ultimate setting for sunrise coffees, long lunches and unforgettable sunsets.

Offering the perfect balance of luxury, land and lifestyle, this remarkable home is within easy reach of Hurstbridge, schools and boutique wineries.
