Sitting on approximately 3 acres with views to iconic Hanging Rock and situated in one of Macedon Ranges most sought after areas is this beautiful country gem. Fasham built homes are highly desirable due to their uniqueness and solar passive design and this one is no exception. Internal features include; 2 bedrooms, the main with walk in robe and ensuite, floor heating in ensuite, an open plan kitchen, dining and living area with slow combustion fire which also vents into main bedroom. Large panoramic windows frame wonderful views to ‘the rock’ and clerestory windows allow natural illumination of the spaces, double glazed windows throughout, a second guest bathroom, laundry, solar hot water system, reverse cycle heating/air conditioning, ceiling fans and a 2.5kw solar system. Centrally located the living areas have been designed with entertaining in mind and open onto two outdoor deck areas, one facing north and the other south, creating options for entertaining no matter which direction the weather comes from. An added bonus to the home is the addition of an old fully restored Caboose containing a bedroom, with ensuite toilet and shower, ideally suited to Bed and Breakfast, guest accommodation or teenage retreat. Externally the home blends harmoniously with the surrounding environment from the choice of earthy colours to the materials used in its construction. The external walls are a mix of sand bagged brick work, corrugated iron and sandstone cladding, whilst at ground level the installation of a water reflection feature, timber decking, crazy slate pathways and rock walls bring home and garden together naturally. A four bay garage compliments the double bay house carport. Gorgeous mature Eucalypts and specimen trees appear scattered throughout the majestic garden along with garden beds consisting of low maintenance Australian Natives creating displays of colour and a pleasant park like setting. In addition there is a frost free walled garden for citrus together with an orchard with 3 varieties of apples, two of Almond, Pear, Nectarine, Plum and Apricot, a variety of berries and Muscat and Sultana Grapes. Never worry about running short of water as the house and garden are supplied by a 65,000 litre water tank and irrigation system. Ideally located in close proximity to Newham Store, schools, train, highway and 1 hour to Melbourne.
