1552 Diffey Road, Beechworth, Vic 3747

Just minutes from the heart of Beechworth, less than three kilometres from town, this 11.5 acre property offers a lifestyle that feels worlds away.

Built from local stone, the home is a showpiece. The local stonework gives the home a solid, enduring character. A wide veranda and concrete apron circle the home, inviting you to linger outside while the seasons change. Inside, the three bedroom, two bathroom residence is fully double glazed, keeping it quiet, comfortable and beautifully insulated.

The massive open plan kitchen, dining and living area is made for gathering. Granite benchtops flow through the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry, and the kitchen is a standout with a double under bench Westinghouse electric oven, Westinghouse induction cooktop, Asko dishwasher, oversized fridge cavity, and a breakfast bar where everyone convenes. The family bathroom features a granite bench and large walk-in shower, while the ensuite adds a deep bath and another generous walk-in shower.

In winter, an efficient wood heater warms the home and heats your water as well. In summer, ducted evaporative cooling keeps things fresh, and a 5.4kW solar system helps keep running costs in check. There's even a cellar for your wine or home produce.

Outside, the infrastructure is exceptional. A huge 18m x 12m machinery shed stands 4.2 metres high, while the separate 18m x 15m workshop rises 5.1 metres and is fully secure, with heating tubing set in a 150mm slab. It also carries approval for an onsite commercial business operation. A lined and insulated 6m x 4.5m shed adds even more flexibility.

Water security is outstanding, with six 22,500 litre tanks, a reliable dam and a well as backup.

Finally, take in the panoramic views rolling across the countryside and mountain ranges. Accessed by sealed roads and so close to town, this is a property that delivers space, quality and convenience in one remarkable package.
