Promising an acreage lifestyle of distinction, 'Northwood Lodge' on 10 acres (approx.) is surrounded by picturesque views and offers two houses-a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom main residence, plus a 3-bedroom weatherboard cottage perfect for guests or intergenerational family living.
Approached via a circular drive and English garden with Bluestone beds and high-stemmed roses, the main house transports one to a more relaxed pace, with a gorgeous wraparound veranda inviting a moment's repose before entry. Inside, exposed beams grace spacious open-plan living and dining areas, while a formal lounge with a wood-heater fireplace beckons beyond.
A modern kitchen with plentiful bench space, soft-close Shaker-style cabinetry, 900mm-wide cooking, and a Bosch dishwasher elevates entertaining, while a corrugated-iron outdoor entertaining hut with a BBQ area is set in the fenced rear yard-great for kids and pets, with a fire-pit area an added attraction.
Accommodation includes a master with a walk-in robe and ensuite, with both the ensuite and central bathroom offering updated, fully tiled luxury with frameless-glass showers, and a separate bath to the main.
Mountain views reaching to Pyrite and Wombat State Forests can be enjoyed from the beautiful cottage, offering expansive open plan living and dining areas surrounding a smart, modern kitchen with a breakfast bar, Westinghouse oven, and stainless-steel dishwasher. Three robed bedrooms are serviced by a classic bathroom with a shower and bath, with split-system heating/cooling to both homes.
Infrastructure includes 3 fenced paddocks with water supply, a stable, shelter, horse yard, tack room, water tanks with pump, shed with power, 8.5kW solar panels, garaging for three vehicles, plus endless extra on-site parking. There are also two dams, including a 5m-deep swimming dam with yellowbelly, silver perch, bass, and yabbies, and a pump house.
The grounds are exceptionally peaceful and host mature plum, pear, elderberry, apricot, apple, and walnut trees, edging to pastureland and gum trees. A bird-watcher's paradise attracting abundant birdlife-including cockatoos and parrots-it's also attractive to native wildlife, including resident kangaroos, koalas, echidnas, and blue-tongue lizards.
Magnificent horse trails are nearby, while Gisborne township is less than a 5-minute drive away with schools, shops, supermarkets, recreation facilities, and nearby freeway access. A cherished Macedon Ranges estate, 'Northwood Lodge' offers the best of both worlds-unrivalled privacy, blissful views, and easy convenience.
