25 Kendalls Lane, Hurstbridge, Vic 3099

Designed by Alistair Knox for playwright David Williamson in the mid-seventies and incorporating features by artisans and artists of Dunmoochin and Montsalvat, this substantial mud brick residence is a credit to its provenance. Few homes could complement their environs more harmoniously, promise an idyllic, country lifestyle and yet still be located within a mere 50 minutes' drive of the CBD.
Nestled in perfect privacy on a park-like picturesque 10 acres, the home offers a multi-functional floor plan that caters for both young and large, extended families alike. The living spaces are expansive and with the buildings L shaped configuration, they all overlook the sparkling, solar heated pool, professionally landscaped gardens and the leafy valley to the north. The country style comforts and ambience of wood-fired ovens and angular open fireplaces are amply matched by their modern alternatives of induction cook top & electric oven cooking, in-floor heating and reverse cycle air-conditioning!
Outdoor entertaining is a breeze with a large recreation area located beneath the huge potter's studio/workshop, as well as a more intimate, decked courtyard between the main house and the self-contained flat. A secure wine cellar/underground store will impress the connoisseurs/collectors and if further relaxation is in order, there is always the spa room!
Secure parking for at least 5 cars, in the main garage, is accessed off the craftily brick-paved, rear driveway and there is an additional 2 car separate garage at the top of that drive.

Take a walk through the grounds; it's a nature-lovers paradise and territory of an assortment of native fauna, especially kangaroos, wallabies, echidna and a variety of birdlife. Beyond the irrigated, landscaped garden surrounding the house there is an established veggie patch, an orchard, a cubby house, a dam, and there is also a fenced paddock for a pet or pony.
This versatile property, on manageable acreage, truly is a rare find so call early to arrange an inspection.
