Tree changers can enjoy tranquil country living on about eight hectares, just ten minutes to the many amenities at Strathfieldsaye and a 20-minute drive to Bendigo city.

This modern and stylish home boasts sustainable materials such as reclaimed bricks, double glazing, Colorbond cladding and beautiful spotted gum.

Clever zoning allows the home to serve as open plan or as separate living spaces where family members can pursue their own interests.

For entertainers, the property includes an outstanding alfresco zone with a built-in fireplace and a sparkling solar heated swimming pool.

Kids can enjoy a separate wing with a versatile living space, a family bathroom and three bedrooms with built-in robes.

At the other end of the house is a luxurious main suite complete with ensuite, freestanding bathtub, double vanity, walk-in robe and a separate study space.

Polished concrete flooring is both stunning and durable. A wood fire brings cosy comfort to the living space.

Another highlight is the home’s kitchen with floor-to-ceiling timber, large butler’s pantry, wine cellar and high-end appliances.

More features throughout are designer-inspired bathrooms, powder room, modern mud room, pendant lighting and climate control.

Onsite is a 9×20-metre trade shed with power, plumbing, concrete floor and solid-fuel heater.

Further assets are double garage, fenced house yard, landscaping, play lawn for the kids, fenced paddock for a pony.

Stock the dam with rainbow trout for family fishing on weekends.
