9 Metcalfe Drive, Romsey, Vic 3434

This beautiful single level three bedroom, two bathroom brick home in a tightly held pocket of Romsey is set on a picturesque 2547m2 (approx.) allotment, with plenty of room for a horse – or two! Lovingly maintained and updated by the original owner-builder, the home captures the relaxed pace of a bygone era and is ideal for families. There are high stemmed roses to the low maintenance front garden, while a beautiful veranda runs the full width of the home, adding to the special country charm of the home.

Inside, a spacious carpeted lounge is complemented by an open plan living area with gorgeous bay window and an inbuilt bar – which offers flexible use as a study pod. The dining area offers easy interaction with the stylish kitchen where white cabinetry and a great amount of bench space make cooking a delight, supported by good appliances including a Westinghouse wall oven/grill, a Bosch induction cooktop, and a dishwasher.

Outside, a generous covered entertaining area provides a peaceful spot for dining alfresco, enjoying your morning cuppa, or simply to "be" and connect with the enchanting natural surroundings. Dappled light filters through soaring mature gum trees which are well positioned to the edges of the property. A Monet bridge traverses from the garden to a powered gazebo offering an idyllic romantic or family BBQ setting. The gently undulating land includes a fenced and gated paddock, a powered shed, and woodshed.

Accommodation is equally restful. All bedrooms are fitted with built-in robes. The main includes an ensuite, while the central bathroom offers a spa bath, with the 2nd toilet conveniently positioned off the internal laundry. The property also includes driveway parking, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, ceiling fans, and 17 solar panels.

When peace and privacy are of the essence, this wonderful home offers a true country setting without compromising on convenience. Located within walking distance of Romsey township with its boutique shops and cafés, Romsey Primary School, sports precinct, golf course, parks, and amenities. Also close to Clarkefield, Woodend or Riddells Creek train stations, and an approximate 40 minute drive to Melbourne's CBD.
