7 Hoskings Lane, Harrietville, Vic 3741

Situated in the Sub-Alpine Village of Harrietville, at the end of the picturesque Ovens Valley, this character-filled home is a rare find that combining the charm from years gone by with modern comfort - sure to impress with its size, finishes, and unbeatable setting.

Spread across a flat 1966m² (just under half an acre) in the centre of the valley, the grounds soak up the best all-day sunshine on offer - a true garden lover's dream, with established trees, shrubs, plants and lawns all at that perfect stage where you simply maintain and enjoy.

Beginning, life as a humble 4-room cottage, the home has been lovingly and sympathetically remodelled and extended into the impressive builder's own home on offer today.

Timber character runs throughout, from exposed beams & ceilings, to warm timber joinery, giving the home a genuine sense of craftsmanship and soul that only comes from a build that has been completed with care.

The home itself offers you 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, anchored by a large open-plan living space with a timber kitchen, meals and sitting area - the kind of space where the whole family naturally gathers, whether it's morning coffee at the bench or everyone pitching in over dinner prep.

A separate lounge and dining space, complete with an open fire and high pitched ceiling, is bathed in natural light, offering a second, more relaxed zone to unwind, entertain, or simply spread out when the household needs a little extra room to breathe.

Lastly for living space, there is also an everyday "snug" ideal for taking in the outlook across your grounds to the surrounding hills, this is a layout built for real family living - spaces to come together, and spaces to retreat to.

For bedrooms, you will find a king-size master retreat features a modern ensuite with direct access to a private verandah where you enjoy more of the outlook to Mother Nature - it's hard to believe you're in the middle of town, let alone with a view this peaceful.

Bedrooms 2 and 3 are both queen size rooms and upstairs there is a children's bedroom with built-in beds for two is just perfect for family or visiting grandkids, giving the little ones a space that feels entirely their own.

Outside, further to this stunning grounds, which have to be seen and smelt to truly appreciate, there is a solar-heated, inground, self-cleaning pool awaits family fun as summer draws near. More than abundant off-street parking with a triple carport plus 10x6 lockable shedding - ideal for the home handyman, storing all the toys, or simply escaping to your own Man Cave. Solar panels feed back into the grid, and a solar hot water system keeps running costs low.

Living here means trading traffic and constant noise for birds chirping and mountain air - the kind of quiet country lifestyle that's increasingly hard to find, without giving up an ounce of convenience.
