That serene country lifestyle with the perfect balance of old world charm and modern luxury is hard to find. Tucked away in Glen Forbes, within ten minutes of San Remo and a quick ninety minutes back to the city, this fully renovated, historic 90 year old farm house sits aloft 17 acres of pristine land. Greeted with a view down the traditional passage way to the stunning stain glass feature window with hardwood floors and ten foot ceilings, the home reminisces an era gone and welcomes modern comfort. A step back in time; magnificently preserved original features such as cornices adorning the high ceilings and sash windows in keeping with the period of the home, the updated family zone comprises open plan country kitchen with 900 mm stainless steel gas cooker, rich solid wood bench tops and a butler’s pantry to satisfy any home chef. The designated dining area and living room tastefully entwines past with present to create an open space for family interaction including wood fire heater, ceiling fans and split system for comfort. A further two living areas, one currently used as an office, are well supported with separate toilet and family bathroom, featuring a free standing claw bath. Three spacious bedrooms, with serene country views and ceiling fans, two with veranda access and original open fire place occupy the other section of the home. The master bedroom features ensuite and built in robe and floor to ceiling views across the garden and green pastures. The surrounding veranda and expansive under cover decking ensures the magnificent rural views are captured all year round. With designated garden beds, established fruit trees and passionfruit vines and purpose built vegetable patch all the hard work in the garden has been done. Two hot houses and a garden shed ensures a good foundation for further garden ventures and a further three large sheds and carport create ample storage for farm equipment. The land itself is sectioned into eight separate fully fenced paddocks (electric fencing system), one with substantial dam; a water source to the drinking troughs for live-stock. Five animal shelters, pens and an all weather central lane way to the paddocks mean vehicle access to all areas. This property not only offers a fully renovated period home, but versatile land of substantial hobby farm size. With serene views and feel and ideal location for privacy, yet an easy drive to Phillip Island, beaches and surrounding areas, it proposes a well-balanced lifestyle.
