Ballan 414 Monteville Lane
Hobby Farm, 76 Acres, Two Homes Under The One Roof
An impressive tree lined driveway creates a real sense of serenity, while the home and infrastructure strikes an imposing image amid stunning acreage of approx. 76.45 acres just outside Ballan. Welcomed by neat established gardens, an inviting brick veneer home, a generous 18 x 9m shed (with mezzanine living, three bedrooms, a kitchenette and bathroom facilities), and other additional shedding this lifestyle property certainly offers room to move, along with complete privacy with the Werribee River to the rear boundary and uninterrupted panoramic views.
Built approx. 17 years ago and bathed by natural light, this fantastic family home is well presented, magnificently appointed and offers first class living for more than just the average family.
This dual occupancy home has been designed with the main residence offering four bedrooms, two living areas and two bathrooms, while the North end of the home (under the same roofline) boasts a further two bedrooms, two living areas and an extra family bathroom and laundry. There are two kitchens which display similar designs with solid timber cabinetry, combustion cookers and an open design to each separate dining zone. The house exterior walls are double insulated and the dividing wall between the unit and house has noise reduction batts.
Alternative power supply is available with a wind turbine, 4.8Kw solar system, quality 24 battery bank plus diesel generator providing an impressive power supply without the bills.
This home has been perfectly designed for blended families, multi-generational living or becoming extremely favourable for those young adults wishing to stay on a little longer. This property could also provide the opportunity to lease out one end for a little extra income.
Externally, there are six fenced paddocks, four dams, two bores and the capacity to store approx. 175,000 litres of fresh rain water. With loads of secluded outdoor spaces to work, retreat, contemplate or dine with friends, this home offers beautiful shaded areas with wide verandas to the front and back along with raised vegetable gardens and a chicken coup to add to its self-sufficiency appeal.
Toward the front of the block would be an ideal spot to install a harness racing track with flat ground on offer, adding to this is a Sugar Gum plantation for your own firewood supply which will be set for the winter months.
This property certainly provides the ultimate extended family lifestyle, especially with a short 4km drive to the Western Freeway, a 60 minute commute through to Melbourne, 25 minutes to Ballarat and just 5 minutes to the centre of Ballan.
