140 Hammond Road

Longwarry VIC 3816

This is a property that will delight and impress from the first look. The residence, fringed by mature majestic Oak trees and Canary Palms, and mature gardens is a faithful reproduction of the Edwardian-era weatherboard home erected on the same footprint pioneered by the Wells family in the early part of the last century. The original chimney and hearth of the contemporary home forms the centerpiece of the many timeless embellishments of the era- high ceilings, decorative cornices, dadoes, solid timber and leadlight feature doors with top and side lights, polished timber floors, French doors, wool carpets, and built-in red gum cabinetry.

Offering multiple living areas including a formal dining room, formal lounge room, and an informal living incorporating a well-planned kitchen with excellent cupboard, bench space, and quality appliances, this is a home not only faithful to the era but a reproduction of the home of well to do farmers of the last century.

There are three spacious bedrooms and a very Heritage-style bathroom and laundry. Whilst showcasing the best of Edwardian architecture, the residence does not ignore totally modern convenience with insulation, split-air conditioners, a modern stainless steel cooking range, a filtered water system, a solar array, and solar boosted gas hot water system.

Broad, timber-decked, and balustraded return verandahs provide vantage points to enjoy the views or simply relax with a good book and experience the solitude.

Outside, an impressive array of steel shedding includes a woodshed, hay shed, workshop garaging for two cars, storage and stable. A fabulous old red brick building, previously used as a dairy offers a large storage area, a storeroom and a hardwood floored mezzanine and a concrete yard is a wonderful asset to the property. A very large chook shed, veggie garden, and orchard trees complete the property, with room for your choice of livestock. A very impressive rural haven, this is a property suited to all comers, and particularly impressive to those who aspire to live sustainably.

The property is conveniently located to Longwarry township, shopping and services, V-Line train station, the M1 Freeway, and major shopping and services hubs and schools at Drouin and Warragul. Inspect with absolute confidence.
