35 Melvins Road, Riddells CreekVIC

Standing proudly on its corner block of 1769 sq metres (approx.) and set in beautiful gardens front and rear, this light-filled 3 bedroom plus dedicated study homestead would be ideal as a country retreat for a large family or for an investor.

High ceilings greet you as immediately upon entering via the lovely foyer, you are welcomed into a grand lounge room with its combustion heater and delightful garden views to the north and west. Adjacent is an arresting and enchanting sitting room with open fire, raked timber ceilings, mantel piece, split system and peaceful garden views providing the temptation to sit and while away the hours reading or relaxing – it’s a very special place. A dedicated and sunny study near the front door is sensibly placed.

The mostly original timber kitchen/meals complex with pantry and split system overlooks and provides access to the large timber-covered decking area, ideal for summer barbeques. Three generously-proportioned bedrooms include the main with its own split system, ensuite and WIR and the other 2 with BIR’s, ceiling fans and their own separate family bathroom (spa and shower). A laundry with plenty of cupboards reflects the true nature of this home – well built, carefully planned and logically laid out.

Outside, you’ll find a covered and extensive alfresco decked area with delightful views over the attractive rear garden. A large powered garage/work shed with mezzanine storage, concrete floor and attached water tank is a bonus and there is a tool shed and cubby house set amongst the pleasantly-treed back garden. The 8 solar panels on the home’s roof provide a nice offset to your power bills.

This is a fine home in a great location being an easy walk to the village shops and is sure to attract families, investors or those seeking a lifestyle change.
