Bolinda VIC 3432

This charming and character-filled four bedroom mudbrick home certainly exudes an aura of comfort and a true country welcome. Surrounded by much larger land holdings, the tranquil rural retreat offers four generous bedrooms, the master with feature leadlight windows, WIR and ensuite; the second bathroom has a claw foot bath just made for a deep soak. The large open living space with the superbly built vaulted timber and beam ceiling, earthy mud brick walls, and big wood fire heater quietly invites you to relax with a good book. The kitchen and laundry are enhanced by typically Australian elements of rich Red Gum benchtops and corrugated iron; whilst the general store pantry is big enough to stock ingredients for a batch of scones or big-bash entertaining. From the dining space the French doors lead to the fabulous fully paved, under-cover alfresco area which ticks the box for country entertaining at its best all year round, and a great place for the kids to play on a wet day. And lastly a study nook completes the floor plan. Outside, the home has deep front verandahs, double carport, a huge powered and concreted shed, wood shed, dog run, a fox proof chicken shed, and three 22,500 litre tanks. The stunning gardens have been lovingly established from a totally blank canvas, and can be appreciated from every room in the home. The mature orchards boast healthy pear, apricot, fig, quince, apple, cherry, mulberry, plum and olive trees, as well as grapevines and huge vegetable garden beds, promising abundant harvests from garden to plate. A few minutes drive and you are at Bolinda State School, General Store, and under an hour s commute to the CBD and thirty minutes to the airport. The gorgeous and unique home is perfect as a family residence or the ultimate weekend haven where the peace and quiet you crave is assured.
