This architecturally designed modern home situated on over 3 acres of land (approx 2 acres open) boasts a modern open plan kitchen with quality stainless steel appliances. A combination of fitted wool carpets, moleanos limestone flooring and tiles, spa bath and double basin master bathroom complete the luxurious appointment. Ceiling to floor double glazed windows with spectacular views of the surrounding bush scenery take up one side of the house. 24 solar panels, energy efficient designer lighting, extensive water tanks (mains water connected), gas ducted heating and a wood stove complete an eco friendly property to combat those rising utility bills. A large garage and attached studio provide enough water for extensive automated irrigation of over 50 fruit trees, berry patches, large vegetable plots and a tunnel hot house. Completing the self sufficiency theme is a 32m2 hen house. Come home to enjoy the relaxing atmosphere and fresh air with top class bird watching and walking tracks located just across the road at the RJ Hamer Forest Arboretum. All this is less than 1 hour from the Melbourne CBD.
