The perfect retreat for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle without compromising on easy liveability, this unique 15-acre property (approx.), tucked away at the end of a long winding driveway, screened by native bush and with no neighbours in sight, is a haven for those who love peace and privacy.

Finished with glossy timber floors and with a woodfire heater as its centrepiece, the open-plan living and dining area stretches out from a kitchen appointed with stainless steel appliances, ensuring the chef is part of every event. 

Featuring walls of floor-to-ceiling glass that deliver loads of natural light and stunning rural outlooks, it makes a seamless transition to the wraparound veranda, the ideal sanctuary for outdoor entertaining against the bush backdrop.

The intelligent layout introduces a spacious lounge that sits central to the three bedrooms. Two share a modern family bathroom, while the impressive dimensions of the main bedroom include an ensuite and plenty of space for a sofa and TV to create a parental retreat.

Completely off-grid, the property runs on a 5 kW solar system with a battery bank backed up by an auto-start generator. Water is abundant, with approximately 66,000 litres of rainwater plus a dam. The solar hot water system is supplemented by a water jacket on the wood heater, and there’s a lifetime supply of firewood available without leaving home.

Desired infrastructure includes a double carport, two 72m² sheds (approx.) with concrete floors and power, plus four further sheds totalling 45m² (approx.).
A quick trip from Newstead, it’s a relaxed drive to every professional service, dining and entertainment benefit Castlemaine has to offer, including V/Line services to Melbourne and Bendigo.
