With a wide frontage to Backhaus Road, you can relax amongst the stark beauty of the earth and its basalt, moss covered rocks. The house seems to have been built on the lip of this ancient volcano, as its sides drop steeply away to a creek bed behind the house. The back half of the land has magnificent productive soils, and no rocks in evidence at all. Currently on a friendly lease to a neighbour, it has been used to run sheep in the past. The homestead has four bedrooms, and two bathrooms, a sunroom, breakfast room, and another large living area. The bedrooms are mostly double bed size, while the main bedroom has a window seat the length of the windows, a walk-in robe and en suite. The stylish modern kitchen has stainless steel appliances, glossy polished floorboards and large French windows to frame those views at every turn. The L-shaped living area is a welcoming space with a slow combustion heater that also heats up your hot water in winter. For summer there is a solar panel with electric booster. With wide verandahs the length of the house, back and front, these can also be used as your entertainment zones as they have outlooks to the well cared for gardens.
Other improvements include 2 dams, one that holds one million gallons and another smaller one, 3 x rainwater tanks, a 40 X 20 metre powered workshed, plus a 30X20 metre galvanised iron garage with ample storage and room for your cars. Located 20 minutes to Bendigo on the Melbourne side and only two minutes to Axedale hotel and golf course, tranquillity awaits you at this 12.95 hectares (32acres) allotment with its own creek frontage.
