Embrace the charm of rural life without sacrificing modern convenience in this captivating North-facing property set on 4.4 acres. Set against the backdrop of Muckleford State Forest, it offers a peaceful sanctuary for nature lovers, families, and those seeking self-sufficiency, all just 5 minutes from Steiner School, 5?km from Castlemaine, and 12?km from Maldon. Property Highlights: • Light-filled, spacious living: Three generous bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen and living area with polished redgum bench tops and wooden floorboards throughout. Stay comfortable year-round with a solid wood fire and a large split-system for heating and cooling. • Indoor-outdoor connection: Verandahs wrap around three sides of the home, including a wide south-facing verandah overlooking a private backyard, offering shady retreat in summer and sun-filled warmth in winter. The grounds feature large open spaces perfect for children's play, gardens, or outdoor projects. • Sustainable and self-sufficient: Solar panels feed into the grid, dramatically lowering power bills, while mains water, a large rainwater tank, a grey water system, and a small dam with excellent catchment support a self-sufficient lifestyle. Six productive vegetable gardens, a mature orchard with pears, peaches, apples, nectarines, and apricots, and a hand-built greenhouse complete the sustainable living setup. • A haven for nature: Mature red gum trees line the dam and winter creek, some over 100 years old, and hundreds of indigenous flowering trees attract prolific native birdlife. Enjoy bushwalking and exploring straight from your backyard, thanks to nearby access to Muckleford Forest. • Convenience meets serenity: A double carport, ample storage sheds, and excellent NBN coverage ensure modern practicality, while the quiet location provides a serene country lifestyle. This property is a rare opportunity to combine rural tranquillity, sustainable living, and nearby urban comforts-an idyllic retreat close to town & schools, while surrounded by the beauty of nature.
