Five Star Country Living
It has been four years in the making, but the end result has been well worth it, with this stunning home offering five star rural living in one of North East Victoria's most picturesque valleys, the Kiewa Valley. A variation on the colonial Georgian theme, this 28-square, four bedroom plus study home is set on 2.02ha on the eastern side of the Kiewa River and boasts uninterupted views of the snow-capped Victorian Alps. Built of Mt Gambier Limestone blocks with a colourbond roof and featuring wide perimeter verandas, the colonial theme continues throughout the home, with high ceilings and ornate cornices, a wide central hallway with archway and dado walls. There are a number of bay windows and an open fireplace in the formal lounge room, which features an antique, restored surround. Further adding to the period theme are brass switches, a chandelier, a claw-foot bath, leadlight front panels on which are etched the Eureka Cross. There are four large bedrooms, three have built in robes, with the master having a walk in robe, an ensuite and French doors that open to a north-facing veranda. Formal areas are large, while central to the floor plan is the family room, casual meals area, an office-study and the brilliantly executed country-style, solid ash kitchen that features Kashmir gold granite benchtops, an imported double bowl porcelain sink, a corner pantry, electric cooking appliances, a dishwasher and an island bench with built in cupboards, drawers and wine rack. The main bathroom follows the period theme, the laundry is huge and there are two double linen cupboards. Improvements include a Chiltern granite woodshed / cubbyhouse, a massive all-weather outdoor living-entertainment area and an 18m x 9m machinery shed that has a separate toilet and shower. A never-ending supply of water is yet another feature of the property, which is located 37km from Wodonga.
