173 Boyles Lane, Lockwood, Vic 3551

Set serenely at the rear of approximately 2.97 hectares (7.3 acres), this handsome homestead offers expansive provincial living. Easily able to comfortably accommodate quite a sizeable clan, this extensive property consists of enough space for use as a six bedroom residence. Currently there are four designated bedrooms, main with en suite and walk-in robe, others with built-in robes. Add to that the home office, plus a substantial granny-flat/studio containing its own bathroom and kitchen, and there is plenty of room here for everyone! In the main residence, two separate living and dining areas surround a solid timber kitchen where all new electric appliances have been installed. Befitting a country kitchen, a triple door pantry supplies excellent storage for bulk buying and preserving home-grown goodies. Reverse cycle split systems along with solid-fuel heating and ducted evaporative cooling keep the interior optimally temperate. Solar electricity consisting of a 5 kW unit with 7 years left of the 66 c rebate, and solar hot water system provide a terrific boost to the budget too. Outdoors, a fantastic undercover entertaining area bordered by palm trees comes complete with pizza oven. There's even room for a party-sized spa, as well as plenty of sun-safe play space for the kids. The stables and three paddocks are perfect for ponies, plus the 10x7 metre shed has concrete floor and power connected. Just 13 kilometres to shopping centres and schools at Kangaroo Flat, Lockwood Primary within a few km's plus less than 8 kilometres to Marong Family Hotel, golf course and primary school, this property is ideally placed for the most appealing family rural lifestyle.
