What you can achieve will be only limited by your imagination or desires (STCA/STIA)
There are so many WOW! Moments, starting from when you reach the end of the driveway and the expansive property opens up in front of you. The attractive four bedroom open plan home sitting up on top of the hill with the enormous custom built, structurally engineered clear span 600sqm barn to your left just waiting for you to turn into the most envied man/woman cave in the district.
Imagine waking up to views of the mountains (snow capped in winter) as far as the eye can see, living amongst the sights and sounds of the flora and fauna that are unique to the area. Deer, Kangaroo, Wombats, Kookaburras, Echidnas and a massive variety of night and daytime birds will happily share the property with you.
The home itself is full of character, with 9ft ceilings, insulated polished timber floors and lots of windows to take in the outdoors. The generous flexible floorplan gives you options to suit how you like to live. The floorplan is zoned and can easily be separated by using the sliding doors giving added privacy when you have guests or you want to have privacy from the kids. The Super King master with en-suite is up one end of the home and the three other bedrooms/bathroom/separate toilet & ensuite down the other end (guest master has its own ensuite).
Love to cook? The character filled, spacious kitchen will inspire you with its large gas/electric stovetop oven and fully operational cast iron woodfire stove, you will be entertaining in no time. Large walk-in pantry, dishwasher, room for two fridges, a mini butlers pantry plus plenty of space, and a separate study, its enormous!
The two existing living areas have doors that spill out into the all weather outdoor area where you can sit and enjoy looking over the lush paddocks and across the Alpine National park all the way to Mt Buffalo and Hotham Heights, Mt Buller is there as well but hidden by the well established trees. The verandah allows you to walk all the way around the house and back in via the boot room where the inverter for the 6.5kw Solar system is fitted. Walking back in through the large laundry you will notice the Telstra mobile booster that provides a strong signal in and around the house. Reliable internet is currently provided via Satellite which we use regularly for Netflix and streaming. The TV signal is strong here but you could also reconnect the satellite TV if you choose to do so.
The home was built in 1992, the established garden is very low maintenance and boasts the most impressive band of very mature deciduous trees that line the driveway, they keep the house cool over summer and let the sun in during winter when you can expect to receive several snow falls.
The expansive irrigation system is fed by over 200,000.00 litres of water between four large tanks that fill from the house, the machinery shed and the large Barn. The system is all linked together and feeds five livestock troughs. There is a sprinkler system around the fascia board of the house and several fire hoses in the barn and house with many pipe stands ready for pumps to be attached if necessary. The house and the barn are also fitted with power inlets should you wish to connect generators. To say that you could exist up here off grid easily would be an accurate statement.
The 600sqm barn is fully set up with power, lighting, water hot and cold. There is a storage room and benches and a fully self contained accommodation area that was originally an office area. You may choose to continue with the existing Host Farming short term holiday let or turn it into a granny flat or accommodation for employees etc. It has a very large open plan set up that has a full kitchen, bathroom and wood fire heating. The Barn really has to be seen to be fully appreciated. As well as the barn there are several other outbuildings nearer the house, a large 3 bay machinery shed with workshop and wood shed built into the side, has power and lighting installed. There is the mandatory chook shed and a rustic old hewn timber stable next to the established fruit tree orchard.
The property itself has been divided up into over 8 paddock areas most cleared. Cattle, sheep and horses have called this property home over the years and have taken water from one of the three dams fed by seasonal/permanent springs. The paddocks have produced some of the best clover hay in the district and they stay green most years right up to December (currently being rested). A fantastic place to fatten up some cattle.
Whatever you decide to do you can be rest assured if you dream of living where you love to play and holiday and you love the thought of staring at the milky way for hours on a clear night from around your campfire then you would never regret deciding to live the dream in Tolmie.
