Established family home on the edge of town

Situated just minutes from Leongatha this four-bedroom home is set on about 4.8 acres (1.96 hectares) surrounded by grand trees in an established low-maintenance garden and paddocks.

An ideal home and shedding for families, this 1980s home has all the branding of a quality build by respected local builder Jack Miles.

The home features exposed Oregon beams, cedar feature walls and spacious rooms.

An undercover walk-in garden entry leads from the double carport and workshop, while the kitchen offers a pantry, electric cooking, a dishwasher and a breakfast bar.

The north-facing living and dining area, with a Coonara wood heater and reverse-cycle air conditioner, opens out to an outdoor area overlooking the garden.

A separate, larger family lounge room has an open fire and a pergola with garden surrounds.

A home office or studio room has its own separate entrance to the front of the home.

All four bedrooms are spacious with excellent storage and study desks, and the master is complete with an ensuite.

The family bathroom has a basin, bath, shower and separate toilet, complemented by a classic country laundry and endless linen and storage throughout the home.

Head outside and downstairs to discover an area well worth exploring, offering a large studio or workshop ideal for working from home.

It has fast, reliable NBN internet, which means that at the end of the day you can shut the door and leave work behind.

Alternatively, it would suit a home handyperson, artist or car enthusiast.

There is space for extended family living as well as your very own cellar and storeroom, an office that is currently a fifth bedroom space with a basin and toilet, and a shed with three-phase power connected and a second double carport.

It is ideal for a tradie, a work-from-home business or as the ideal space to create, and there is 120,000 litres of water storage.

Outside there is plenty of room and yards for a couple of cows, horses or sheep, or you can lease it out to the neighbour if you don't require it and simply enjoy the home and garden.

Amongst the garden is a dam, and the property is home to frogs, echidnas and koalas in the grand spotted gums.

There is also a fully enclosed chicken run, a woodshed and orchard plantings of grapefruit and lemons, along with veggie beds and a mulberry tree, to name just a few.

This much-loved property, with its spacious yet cosy home, shedding and low-maintenance acreage just minutes from Leongatha, has been a cherished family home with special times, and now our genuine vendors are looking to downsize.

Ideally located, this family home is well worth your consideration.
