95 Amiets Road Birregurra VIC 3242

If you’re looking for sleek, slick, modern & shiny- this is not the property for you!
Rather, this is a 'home' (in the true sense of the word) full of charm and comforting liveability.
Think the shoe analogy: A much loved, comfy & cosy slipper (Slip it on and bliss!) rather than a tight, oh so stylish, uncomfortable sleek stiletto.

Originally part of a returned soldier’s settlement built in the 1920’s, this property is set in approx. 20 acres of quiet rural surroundings, and has been lovingly restored to as close to its original status as modern living will allow, resulting in a cosy, comfortable home. It is ideal for a small family looking to fulfil the dream of owning a pony, a few animals and chooks, a retired couple wanting a hobby farm or as a haven for tree changers, seeking the peace & solitude of a country idyll.

The home is hidden from the road, nestled within a gorgeous cottage garden at the end of a long shady driveway. It has 2 bedrooms indoors with potential for a third small bedroom in a cute adjacent building.

The kitchen cleverly blends the new with the old. Modern appliances, including gas cooking, electric oven and Miele dishwasher combine easily with the timber benchtops & cabinetry and the wood burning stove (used by current owners to do much of their cooking) which doubles up as a very effective heater. The walk in pantry, which accommodates the fridge, helps maximise the kitchen space.

The bathroom is small and charming. It includes a clawfoot bath for shower and bathing and a casement window providing for the light and scent from the garden to drift in.

With a lovely front entrance, separate lounge (with R/C Air Con and open fire place) and wide passage through the centre of the home, the house stays cool in the summer and is readily warmed in the colder months.

Outside, brick paved pathways weave through the garden to the built in BBQ area, the potting cottage, vegie garden, chook enclosure and on out to the orchard which boasts a range of established fruit trees. A 5 bay lockable machinery shed with power and mezzanine for extra storage easily houses farm and garden machinery.

2 dams, 2.2 megalitre pumping rights, a well, grey water infrastructure and rainwater tanks, including filter system for drinking water, ensure that water needs for the house, garden and farm are taken care of.

The current owners have paid attention to every detail of this home to create a welcoming home full of country charm and ambience. All the hard work is done and you can now simply move in and reap all the rewards of a genuine country lifestyle within an easy 10 minutes from the vibrant township of Birregurra (4 times daily train service to Geelong & Melbourne), 30 minutes from Lorne and the Great Ocean Road and 15 minutes to the Otways.
