Roseneath an idyllic lifestyle

Comprising an idyllic mix of cleared pasture and native bushland on more than two hectares (seven acres) with views of the Eastern Ranges, Roseneath is set to impress.

Bessie Creek flows gently through the property within a glade, while overhead a canopy of tree ferns, some up to 200 years old, touch towering eucalypts regenerated since the area was logged more than 70 years ago.
The residence is set amongst garden rooms of azaleas, rhododendrons, camellias, roses, lavender, irises and a host of other varieties including beautiful specimen trees, contained within ranks of bluestone lodging and retaining walls.
The residence is half hidden by a riot of botanical splendour and a gracious front verandah bedecked with climbing roses reveals leadlight double sash windows and a solid timber Georgian style front door with sidelights and bluestone plinth.
This is where the adventure begins.
A delightful melange of old world, with the embellishment prerequisite to modern living, the residence has been extensively renovated.
The kitchen, two bathrooms and laundry, a gallery of old architectural treasures – doors, windows, ornate fire surrounds, posts and beams, jostle for attention, adding form and texture.
Comprising four bedrooms, the main has a full ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.
A grand loungeroom incorporates formal dining.
The kitchen has granite benchtops and all-electric cooking and adjacent is an informal dining area.
Nearby the sitting room is complete with a leadlight box bay window. There is also a family bathroom and laundry.
An extensive deck area provides views across the property to the hills and valleys beyond.
A 30ft by 27ft shed, four-car garage offers parking plus workshop and storage space. There are two timber sheds and a two-car carport decked in a cascade of wisteria.
Roseneath has a bitumen sealed road frontage and borders ‘The Harbury’ – more than 24 hectares (60 acres) of native bushland which was a bequest to the people of Victoria.
Being close to State Park riding and walking trails all add to the appeal of Roseneath.
