Chewton 27 Hoopers Road
ICONIC POST-MODERN COUNTRY HOME SET ON NATURE'S DOORSTEP - 2.3 ACRES OF TRANQUILITY
Positioned in a quiet, rural setting at the end of a gravel driveway, this unique home sits on 2.3 acres and commands views across the valley and to the bushland beyond. Designed by well-known architect Michael Rigg, the two separate buildings provide a variety of uses with the main house and separate self-contained dwelling or studio.
In the main house, the front door opens to the living room with a central wood heater, the domed construction provides a double-height ceiling and views over the deck, while above is the mezzanine level with bedroom and office/study with a tree-top canopy vista, and a downstairs bathroom. Walk along the hallway to the separate spacious dining area with its copper backed wood-burner, galley kitchen with granite benchtops, dishwasher, storage, induction cooktop, and cellar.
Outside is a private paved courtyard with barbeque, and across the lawn is the separate unit, with two bedrooms and its own bathroom; ideal for guest accommodation or as a study/studio. The lightly treed block has a dam, double carport, garden shed, gravel paths and lots of stonework including the wonderful dry-stone wall that borders the property. Connected to mains power, with three water tanks, a bore, automatic sprinkler system; 2km to Chewton with its general store, post office, primary school, pub and pool; 6km to Castlemaine station and 10 minutes to the Calder Freeway. A stunning, 'one-of-a-kind' type of property!
