133 Cypress Drive, Elphinstone, Vic 3448

Secluded and private, Number 133 is accessed via a private lane, an offshoot of Cypress Drive; nearby neighbours are hidden from view and the surrounding bush offers privacy and a sense of peace. A meandering drive leads over a seasonal creek, through pretty plantings and rises to sweep along the edge of the picturesque dam where you get your first glimpse of the ranch style home and surrounding gardens.

Unpretentious in style but packed with features, this lovingly established home incorporates all the elements of a relaxed lifestyle with the practicalities for rural living. In traditional style there are wide verandahs front and back with a vine covered deck, all providing shelter and choice to enjoy outdoor living depending on the season.

Inside the home, a cosy L-shaped lounge and dining room with solid fuel heater make the perfect winter space for taking in the landscape or snuggling in with a book or favourite tv show. At its hub, the kitchen is functional and well-appointed with pyrolytic oven, gas hob and integrated dishwasher. A return island bench is perfect for casual eating and there is ample space in the adjoining living for everyday meals.

Currently a three-bedroom home, there is a master with built-in robe, walk-in robe and ensuite, a smaller single with built-in robe and a large 6.3m x 3.5m with full wall of storage, ideal for siblings to share or with the inclusion of a partitional wall it would easily convert into two separate spaces, creating four bedrooms in total.

Outside, the property is just as impressive. There is excellent fencing with rabbit proofing to the house paddock. The dam holds approx. one meg and there is capacity to store 100,000 litres of rainwater. A 7m x 9m garage/workshop has concrete flooring and power, with a double carport attached to the house, plus an additional shed for wood storage. There are sprinklers to take care of the productive vegetable garden, greenhouse, fruit trees and seasonal house gardens.

Further features include ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling, ducted vacuum and 5.5kW solar system. Contact agent Di Selwood on 0488 148 358 to inspect this beautiful lifestyle property.
