37 Robert Road, Woodend, Vic 3442

In a quiet, no-through road, only a few kilometres from Woodend, this three bedroom + study home is a very appealing proposition.

The kitchen has been extensively renovated and updated. It has white laminate cupboards, a Westinghouse stainless dishwasher, modern induction cooktop and electric oven. There is a large walk in pantry. The dining area is bright and welcoming, courtesy of two skylights.

The lounge room has polished bamboo boards and lovely garden views. An efficient Nectre woodheater in the corner is powerful enough to heat the entire house.

All of the bedrooms are of double size, with built in wardrobes. The study could provide a fourth bedroom if required.

The family bathroom has a smart washbasin with mosaic splashback, shower, toilet and a bath. There is a second toilet in the laundry. A solar hot water system has an electric booster.

The exterior of the house is an attractive mix of materials. A modern rendered extension sits comfortably against the original log walls and lovely red brick chimney.

The charms of a small acreage property are evident outside. A classic verandah has paving of rustic red bricks, and is draped with wisteria. There is a dog run, a chook pen and a cubby house. Bluestone flags and sleepers edge the garden beds and tall eucalypts flank the sunny lawns.

Water storage is extensive. A 28,000 litre tank is buried underground, and there is a further 10,000 litre tank above ground. There is also a dam.

A useful 6 x 12 m shed has a concrete floor, power and a mechanic's pit. There is a woodshed.

Small acreage within such proximity of Woodend is increasingly difficult to find. This attractive family home combines the best of location and comfort at an affordable price.
