The picturesque ½ acre site is quintessentially 'country' and has been thoughtfully developed into a number of different use areas. A picket fence encloses the immediate cottage garden. There is a gorgeous vege garden, excellent pet enclosure, and chook shed. The maturity and seasonal interest of the garden, the fruit trees, and the fabulous privacy of the block, especially in summer when the old hawthorn hedges are in leaf, all give the property terrific character, accented by gravel paths and stone walls, and a majestic, landmark, 200 year old gum frames the entrance.

Reticulated town gas is available to the site, town water plus a 27,000L rainwater tank, and state-of-the-art underground fire shelter, complete this well-maintained and beautifully presented property, located just 1.5kms from the local V/Line station.
