Plant vines, graze cattle, rest extended family in the 3-bed cottage, or champion what 'The Pavilions' has just metres away luxury guest stays on a serene farm canvas encompassing dual-living potential and spectacular views in a very special setting
With each dwelling staged to admire the uplifting terrain of soaring hillsides, bordering roses, mature stringybarks and the winter creek; the property creates infinite ways to prosper with 5 paddocks on its radar; even an old dairy.
Perhaps the dream is farming. There's arable land and stock yards, a redgum plantation, small orchard, and large high clearance shedding for tools and farm equipment and toys; all assisted by extensive water catchment infrastructure thanks to hefty rainwater tanks, creeks, 2 bores, kilometres of interconnecting pipes and hydrants and a small dam.
Or maybe it's to keep family close - the cottage could be explored for tourist accommodation income (STCC) Tagai Cellar Door opposite as well as the many other Lenswood wineries pose a good reason to target tourists.
The refurbished 4/5-bedroom home lives beautifully under a wrap of 2m wide verandahs with ample carparking, and a light-filled footprint led by a formal lounge/media room with dual aspect windows, a master bedroom with ensuite, a study, family bathroom, and 3 bedrooms before blending indoors and out via the open plan living finale.
Centred around the Nectre combustion fire, north-facing views will steal your gaze while behind you, the updated kitchen hosts new benchtops, a gas cooktop, electric oven, and walk-in pantry.
Down the hill, the modestly modernised 1940s 'sleepout' lives like it was carved out of the hillside; sheltered by tall silver birches and offering a separate driveway, carport, and long or short-term comfort with a fully equipped shaker-style kitchen, full bathroom, central lounge with combustion fire and 3 bedrooms.
Whatever the aim be it to host, nurture, produce, or entertain all beautiful bases are covered with a home, cottage, 62 flexible acres, and never-ending views what will it be?
