This beautiful, peaceful and secluded property offers a rare opportunity to acquire 47 acres of picturesque farmland situated within the Central Highlands in the tightly held and sought-after location of Trentham East. Opportunities like this are incredibly rare. With direct road access, the property features a rustic entrance, leading down a tree arched driveway, flanked by mature conifers of many varieties, creating a welcoming and picturesque approach. Nestled amongst well established trees and gardens sits a cosy 2-bedroom home, completely secluded from neighbours and traffic. Inside a large combustion heater fills the living and dining area with atmosphere and warmth, perfect for chilly country evenings. The area flows into a neat and functional kitchen fitted with a large Smeg stove and a dishwasher. The home is designed to embrace casual, light and airy living, with glass sliding doors that invite natural light and open onto the serene surrounds, bringing the beauty of the outdoors inside. Stunning Western sunsets are frequently seen through the trees and in Summer, provide the perfect atmosphere to put down the day with a drink on the deck. The home block features a productive veggie patch near the house and a large number of mature aged trees, deciduous Oaks, Birches, Beeches and Chestnuts and evergreen Conifers and Blackwoods providing shade in Summer and light in Winter. A large, shared natural spring and rain fed dam provides water to the gardens via a pump and holding tank, ensuring a constant and reliable source. Native wildlife abounds throughout the seasons. The large dam is home to an abundance of aquatic birds including wood ducks and swamp hens which can be seen wandering around the home and gardens and, in Spring, with their chicks. The mature stands of trees are home to an abundance of bird life including King parrots, superior wrens and kookaburras and many others. Wombats, kangaroos and echidnas can be seen traversing the land. The property also features farm shedding. A large rose garden and an irrigated, well-established 2-acre rabbit proof fenced market garden, consisting of extensive plantings of mature espaliered apples and pears, plums, brambleberries, blueberries, raspberries, cherries and asparagus await some love and care. Complete with a charming farm stall, the market garden offers potential for farm-to-table produce and flower sales or with development, a sustainable income stream. The land consists of the home block and three fenced paddocks of cleared land, which each year become dotted with picturesque hay bales, adding to the property's charm and practicality for farming or livestock purposes. Sun-filled, lightly elevated, and cleared, the land overlooks the beautiful surrounding farm scape, with sweeping views through to Mt Macedon. An Eastern boundary is protected by a long stand of mature conifers and native trees, offering both shelter and privacy.
