68 Dons Road, Newham, Vic 3442

Like all great country properties Applegarth captures your senses on every level. A quality architect designed home, privately located in a breathtaking setting only a short stroll from the Newham General Store for the occasional coffee or lunch break. It is hard to believe you could have such a beautiful rural holding an hour from Melbourne.

Entering via the arched Cypress hedge and along the enchanting Chanticleer Pear lined driveway you arrive at the Paul Delany Architect designed home, sitting in absolute privacy, that has taken unmistakeable cues from a European farm house. With a view from every room the light filled home’s centrepiece is the living room that overlooks the pond and a framed view to Hanging Rock. The room leads onto the wisteria draped alfresco terrace, an inviting location for a long lunch. A clever floor plan with 3 bedrooms and a library/study, with a generous master bedroom that will give you ever feeling of waking up in nature. There is quality throughout including double glazed windows and high ceilings.

The garden has evolved over the past 23 years to be enjoyed now and for generations to come. Effortlessly combining parkland gardens complete, with small olive groves and a large hedged vegetable garden, then on to a native conservation area complete with a seasonal creek joining Deep Creek.

Supported by quality infrastructure with a 5 KW solar system, bore, water storage tanks for gardens and house discretely placed over the property. There is an additional garage/workshed, plus a garden and chook shed.

The hamlet of Newham offers a real sense of community, just 10 minutes to Woodend. A rich lifestyle awaits.
