1609 Don Road Don Valley, 3139 VIC
TIMELESS CASTLEMAINE STONE RESIDENCE
Entering off Don Road and along a peaceful, meandering fern-lined driveway has you arriving at the heart of this country property. A striking stone homestead sits proudly on around 11 acres, gazing out across the valley below - coming home has never felt so good!
Crafted from beautiful Castlemaine sandstone and wrapped in double verandas, this character-filled residence blends timeless charm with modern comfort. Set amongst a balanced mix of cleared paddock and pristine bushland, the property offers both lifestyle and practicality in equal measure.
Internally, the home features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a private ensuite to the main. The heart of the home is warmed by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone open fireplace, complemented by another wood heater, two reverse-cycle split systems, and additional electric heaters in the bedrooms for year-round comfort. Solid Brazilian black granite benchtops add a touch of luxury to the kitchen, while a 12-panel solar system enhances sustainability, and hardwired security cameras provide peace of mind.
Outdoors, the lifestyle appeal continues with a fenced paddock ideal for grazing livestock, and a tranquil duck pond complete with its own duck house, regularly visited by black ducks and wood ducks. Cleared paths meander through the forest, creating easy access for exercise, quiet reflection, or simply enjoying the abundant birdlife and wildlife. The grounds are manageable too, easily maintained with a ride-on mower.
The pièce de resistance? An extraordinary, custom-built two-storey workshop that will impress even the most discerning buyer.
