This unique isolated rural retreat in Trida is set amongst 2.3 acres of established ‘Edna Walling’ inspired garden.
The garden was planted in the 1940s and features large deciduous English trees, banks of Kashmir firtrees, masses of bulbs, large camellias and old stone steps.
The house is a cosy, renovated twobedroom farmhouse featuring openplan living with a unique church door ‘builtin’ dining table overlooking the garden.
Solid wood heating and gas provide ample heating. Both bedrooms overlook the garden, one with French doors leading onto the exterior decking.
The living area features timber dado and timber ceilings.
The rustic farm kitchen is constructed from recycled timbers and provides ample cupboard space.
A separate old dairy has been converted into a large studio space with mezzanine floor and attached workshop. This studio/barn would suit artist, student or guests and overlooks the vegie garden.
The property has two small paddocks suitable for sheep, alpaca, goats or horses. Water is supplied from ample tanks. It is set amongst natural bush at the end of a ‘nothrough road’ with plenty of nature walks to nearby fern gullies and ancient eucalypt trees.
The property is aptly suited to a complete hideaway, weekend retreat or permanent home for those who appreciate country living at its peak.
A 1.5 hour drive from Melbourne makes this property suitable for a dual Melbourne/country lifestyle.
Priced at $293,000.
