Site of the Lower Heytesbury School during the 1930s and 1940s, “Lindedor” – which means Many Trees, still has many of the original ones standing.
Designed to the owner’s specifications by Fasham-Johnson of Armadale, the house takes full advantage of the surroundings, with generous windows. Comprising approximately 24 squares and built of solid brick, it is a 3 Bedroom residence with separate Living, Dining, Study and Lounge areas, the latter with a huge open fireplace. The main entrance to the house is from the wide slate-tiled Verandah on the south side where the looped driveway leads to the lockable double Garage. Within the house, rendered walls, limed pine ceilings and cathedral ceilings in the main Kitchen-Living areas add to the ambiance. The large Master Bedroom has a WIR and Ensuite, while the 2nd and 3rd Bedrooms have BIRs.
The house is completely sheltered and cannot be seen from the road. An inviting north-facing paved courtyard leads to a lawn and rockery, with a covered orchard and vegetable garden beyond. Garden beds abound with annual and perennial bird-attracting plants and the roof provides catchment for an 80,000 litre concrete RWT. A small bore is also used to reticulate water around the property. A large steel barn provides space for a workshop and storage.
Only 6 kms from the Great Ocean Road and 12 kms from the main street of Timboon, this property offers a unique lifestyle surrounded by natural beauty, privacy and serenity.
