Where Family, Nature & Country Life Meet - A Substantial Country Home on 5 Acres (approx)

Set amongst established gardens and quality country properties in one of Newham's most coveted positions, this stunning home offers a rare opportunity to embrace an idyllic country lifestyle with space, privacy and an extraordinary connection to the surrounding landscape.
Set on approximately 1.97 hectares (approx 5 acres) of highly usable land, this substantial country home has been designed with family living and entertaining at its heart. From the moment you arrive, the sense of peace and space is undeniable, with the rear of the home affording magnificent views stretching across to Hanging Rock, the Macedon Ranges and Camels Hump.
Inside, the home delivers warmth, character and generous proportions. Four spacious bedrooms include a beautifully appointed main suite with luxurious ensuite, while the heart of the home is the superb timber country kitchen, thoughtfully designed for family gatherings and entertaining.
Adjoining the kitchen is an exceptional casual living and entertaining space, featuring soaring cathedral ceilings, a warming wood heater and an abundance of natural light. A separate large formal living area, complete with open fireplace, provides a more intimate space to relax, while an adjoining retreat, dining area or study area offers flexibility for growing families and multiple zones for living.
The connection between indoors and out is one of the home's defining features. Wide verandahs and expansive entertaining decks provide numerous places to sit, relax and take in the tranquil surrounds, with the rear deck flowing naturally into the garden. A luxurious spa creates the perfect place to unwind, while a lovingly crafted bluestone outdoor table and BBQ sits beneath lush established trees overlooking the scenic dam - a much-loved setting for family lunches, celebrations and memorable gatherings.
For those seeking space for vehicles, hobbies and equipment, the property delivers in abundance with a huge integrated garage and workshop, complemented by a substantial five-bay hay, wood or machinery shed at the rear of the property.
The land itself is wonderfully versatile, with two paddocks providing ample room for animals, a horse or pony. Positioned on the edge of the Cobaw State Forest, the opportunity to explore endless bush tracks, walking trails and scenic country surrounds is quite literally at your doorstep. Whether it is an early morning walk, a leisurely ride or simply watching the seasons change, this is a property that invites you to slow down and enjoy country life.
The location further enhances the lifestyle. Newham Primary School is close by, with a school bus stop conveniently located at the end of the street, while some of the region's most highly regarded schools and colleges are within easy reach. Hanging Rock, renowned wineries and the many attractions of the Macedon Ranges are all nearby, with both Woodend and Kyneton offering excellent cafés, restaurants, shopping and essential amenities. The Calder Freeway provides convenient access to Melbourne for commuters.
There is something wonderfully timeless about this property. Wide verandahs, expansive decks, open and closed fireplaces, soaring ceilings, established gardens, productive paddocks and a beautiful dam combine to create that quintessential country feeling that is increasingly difficult to find.
A place where children can explore, animals can roam, friends can gather and family memories can be made and providing a lifestyle to be lived, loved and treasured for years to come.
