Gardeners delight in a highly desired location
Located in one of Woodend's most tightly held streets, this well-maintained triple fronted brick home sits beautifully within a magnificent 3,093 sqm approx. (3/4 acre) garden which is a delight to the senses. The private front garden includes stunning Chinese Pink Cedar, Japanese Maple and flowering Cherry, as well as plentiful bulbs and flowers, while the house is shaded in summer by a glorious Golden Elm.
Inside, the home is filled with light entering the many large windows, each room offering a different aspect of the garden. Polished floorboards flow throughout the three bedrooms, study/4th bedroom and the multiple living zones, which offer cosy spaces to relax by the fire or watch your favourite movie. One of the bedrooms includes built in storage and desk perfect for hobbyists, with a concealed Murphy bed offering a convenient place for guests to stay. Recently updated, the main bathroom has a lovely deep bath with shower over and separate WC, while the laundry/mudroom has a 2nd shower and toilet and easy access outdoors.
The galley style kitchen features 40mm stone benchtops, stainless steel appliances and fantastic storage, overlooking the open plan dining/sitting area which is connected to the garden beyond by sliding doors out to the generous Ironbark deck. Imagine sitting out under one of the pergolas with your favourite beverage, surrounded by Agapanthus, shady Box Elders and a wonderful Oak. The garden offers many interesting areas to explore, with pebble paths leading past lush green lawn to gabion raised garden beds with herbs and veggies for the kitchen, with a BBQ/firepit area. There are abundant berries and fruit trees including Apple, Nashi, Apricot and Nectarine, a handy greenhouse to cultivate vegetable plantings, plus a double garage with workshop for keeping tools and cars protected. In the lower garden, you'll find a wonderful copse of Birch trees and plenty of open space, with room for a small second dwelling (STCA).
It is easy to see why this area is so highly regarded, with large blocks on a quiet no through road and Woodend township and V/Line station a leisurely 20 minute stroll or 3 minute drive away, while you can be in Melbourne in less than an hour.
