Lifestyle living with magnificent views
This 1920's home is a truly beautiful example of an Edwardian character home that has been brought back to life. Situated in a quiet part of town, atop a hill on 5 acres (approx.), this property has views that would rival most properties in Casterton and is an ideal lifestyle property with the opportunity for self sufficient gardening and livestock husbandry.
Offering three good sized bedrooms, with the option of a fourth utilizing the existing dining room, this charming property would suit a multitude of buyers. The large central hallway creates a great feeling of space as you enter via the front door, and the high ceilings that are characteristic of a home of this age only add to that feeling. This is something you just don't get with more modern homes. Many of the original details have been maintained inside with ornate fretwork, original tall skirting boards and polished floorboards that flow throughout almost the entirety of the house.
At the front of the property is the large living area, with its beautiful detailed ceiling and large windows which allow the light to flood into the space. In here, framed by an ornate mantel piece, is a large built in wood heater to keep you cozy on the coolest of winter evenings. Also to ensure comfort year round, the vendors have installed a split system in the hallway to provide efficient heating and cooling to the home.
The bathroom is conveniently located opposite the bedrooms and offers a quaint pedestal vanity, shower and toilet. Further down the hallway is the kitchen with a large walk in pantry directly opposite. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated whilst staying true to the feel of the home, with good bench space and clever storage. The feature here is undoubtedly the gloss black 900mm Belling five burner dual fuel range cooker. A chef's dream with two ovens, a separate grill and expansive cooktop. This is the ideal tool for any home cook who likes to bake or entertain.
There is a well placed door which leads directly from the kitchen out into the paved outdoor entertaining area on the northern side of the home. This area is partially enclosed and provides a fantastic year round entertaining space, again with incredible views to the Glenelg River flats and the hills beyond. The perfect spot to entertain, or just sit and relax with a built in bar area and convenient second toilet located nearby.
The beautiful and expansive garden is where the current owners have also invested a great deal of time and effort. As you wander through and around the garden you come across many little hidden sitting areas and creative garden art features. There is also a great mix of mature trees along with cottage garden style plantings that create a lovely space to relax. There are some smaller sheds, stables and outbuildings on the property, and combined with the recent addition of a four bay GI carport, there is no shortage of storage space here.
This home is a true standout in the Casterton area - a beautiful character home in a quiet location with views for days. Well worth a look.
