Property Details for 32 Yapeen School Lane, Yapeen
Last Listing description (December 2022)
Nestled in a beautiful rural setting just 12 mins drive from Castlemaine is this stunning, architecturally designed strawbale house.
Positioned to take in the views of a magnificent red gum from all 5 rooms, this 168sqm house features a 12m x 6m living area with 3.4m high ceilings, large double-glazed windows with custom made hardwood frames, provision for an indoor fernery, incredible thermal efficiency, a 5.4Kw dual inverter solar array, a 315 litre Sanden hot water heat pump, and NBN availability.
The house faces north for excellent passive solar heating and is on a gently undulating site of two acres at the end of a closed dirt lane so there is no through traffic. It has mains power and water, an A&A worm farm septic system, two x 22,000 litre water tanks, and a BAL 12 rating (lowest possible). Across the block there are seven taps, a meandering driveway, excellent volcanic soil in the rear third, and a site cut for another dwelling or very large shed that is also plumbed into the worm farm and has mains power and water.
Over and above all these qualities the property evokes calm and serenity. This is in large part created by the magnificent red gum, a collection of other large trees (with one said by an arborist to be over 400 years old), three little "soaks", and wonderful bush views. To help create biodiversity and the feeling of a natural sanctuary, over 400 shrubs and small trees have also been planted along the landscaped southern, eastern and western borders.
A viewing is strongly encouraged to fully appreciate this wonderful property.
This house is an Owner Build and is at Lockup stage. All permits and documentation are available, all plumbing, electrical and engineering work was done by registered tradespeople, and the build has been done to a very high quality. I am happy to answer any questions, and in addition to the necessary 137B Report, I am also very happy to have any further inspections done on the property given the quality of the construction.
For the right buyer(s) this property is an ideal project to finish everything to your exact wishes. From the colour of the internal render and plastering through to all the kitchen and bathroom fittings, you can customise this house into your perfect home.
