25 Bates Road

A Private Blackwood Escape with Space, Comfort & Country Charm

Description

Tucked away in the peaceful surrounds of Blackwood, 25 Bates Road offers an inviting blend of contemporary comfort, generous space and relaxed country living on an impressive 1,826m² (approx.) allotment. Renovated and thoughtfully equipped for easy living, this three-bedroom home is perfectly suited to families seeking room to spread out, weekenders looking for a genuine escape, or anyone ready to trade the pace of city life for the beauty and tranquility of the country. Inside, timber floors and a warm wood combustion fire create an immediately welcoming atmosphere, while a Daikin split system provides year-round comfort. The renovated kitchen, updated in 2014, combines practicality with style, featuring laminate benchtops and a Bellini dishwasher, while the adjoining living and dining spaces connect beautifully with the outdoors. Large stackable sliding doors open from the living and dining areas onto an expansive deck, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection and a wonderful setting for long lunches, entertaining or simply enjoying the splendid view amongst the peaceful surrounds. The first bedroom takes full advantage of this lifestyle with its own sliding doors to the deck, walk-in robe and ceiling fan. Bedrooms two and three are equally well considered, with built-in storage, ceiling fans; with both bedrooms opening onto their own secluded deck. Comfort and energy efficiency have been thoughtfully addressed, with sub-floor and ceiling insulation, additional wall insulation where possible, insulated roller shutters and an impressive BAL 40 rating. Roller shutters feature throughout, while gas Rinnai instantaneous hot water, town electricity and broadband add everyday convenience. Outside, the property really comes into its own. The substantial gardens and generous grounds provide plenty of room for children, pets, gardens and future lifestyle possibilities. A wonderful bonus for families, a children's treehouse has been built amongst the gardens, creating a magical little retreat for imaginative play and outdoor adventures. The large shed is another genuine asset, with concrete flooring, power, lighting, workbenches and capacity for two cars - ideal for those needing room to work, create, pursue hobbies or store the toys. A 26,000-litre Rhino water tank further supports the country lifestyle. And then there is Blackwood village itself. Surrounded by the magnificent Wombat State Forest and close to Lerderderg State Park, this history laden township offers a rare combination of natural beauty, community and hospitable country character; with its historic pub, bushwalking, cycling, local café, gardens, mineral springs and the Lerderderg River all part of the lifestyle. Despite the feeling of being wonderfully removed from it all, Trentham is only 12 minutes away for major shopping, dining, cafés and everyday essentials. Ballan is approximately 30 minutes away, providing further shopping, services and transport connections. For families, weekenders and those looking for a more relaxed way of life, this is a home where space, nature and comfort come together beautifully.
