68 Tweddle Lane, Woodend, Vic 3442

Then this is it. Nestled on the fringe of the Woodend township with views to Mount Macedon, this unique one-acre block offers all the convenience of proximity to the town centre.

A light and modern family home, it has been designed to take in all aspects of the seasons creating a sustainable and self-sufficient living environment. All windows are double glazed; thick blinds and a freestanding woodfire help to heat the house. It is inviting, with warm timbers and a large open living area. Here, huge picture windows to the east capture the morning sun, and spectacular views of Mount Macedon. Big timber and high clerestory windows on the northern side fill the space with light. Glass doors open on to a sheltered entertaining deck that is lucky enough to capture all of the same views to the mountain.

The kitchen is well designed, complete with Smeg and Bosch appliances. Deep pot and crockery drawers, utility draws, an appliance nook and large pantry provide ample storage, while the stainless steel bench – with glass splash back – makes cleaning a breeze.

The master bedroom (with ensuite) is spacious yet inviting, it has large built in storage and big windows. Doors open down into an Asian-inspired courtyard outside, screened for privacy by climbers and bamboos. The second bedroom also occupies the northern side, and could function well as a home office, with its own private courtyard and outside access. A wide central passage has high ceilings and clerestory windows; through adjustable Kwila timber louvres, the two south-facing bedrooms are able to take advantage of the light this provides.

The central bathroom is large and open; it has a screenless tiled shower and a big bath tub. The laundry is combined. Instantaneous gas water is efficient and effective, while the grey water system allows you to recycle water and keep the orchard in fruit.

A green-finger’s dream, the gardens are ready to go. The property boasts a large ramble of berries, complemented by an established fruit orchard and huge vegetable garden, with hot house. There is a large garden shed with concrete floor, shelving and power, and a big chicken run/coop.

Just minutes from the all shops and the Vline commuter rail; this great family home is perfect for the entertainer, the gardener, or those just wanting to relax and enjoy the surroundings.
