Magical Campaspe River Frontage 'Marakell' Rare opportunity to secure yourself a stunningly beautiful 28 hectares featuring 2.5km of the most magnificent frontage to the Campaspe River, with ancient native gums, outcrops of basalt and most importantly, a permanent waterhole. This spectacular and private oasis also boasts a timeless, architect-designed home that features 3 bedrooms and a study (the master with ensuite and walk-in-robe), a separate rumpus/theatre room, a central kitchen featuring Tasmanian Myrtle benchtops, Bosch appliances and a walk-in-pantry. Extensive use of double glazing, outdoor paving and strategically placed pergolas provide a fabulous indoor and outdoor lifestyle. The home is set amongst a mature garden with an array of exotic trees and plantings that bring colour and birdlife all year round, with reticulated water from the bore and 180,000-litres of stored rainwater. The property is further enhanced with an orchard of espaliered apples and pears, 25 metres of mixed berries, raised vegetable boxes, a garden shed, and a large steel shed with concrete floor, power, a 6-kilowatt solar system, ancient rock walls and 5 newly fenced, secure paddocks of fertile volcanic soil. This is a once in a generation opportunity to secure tightly held acreage with sought-after river frontage, close to Kyneton township and an easy commute to both Melbourne and Bendigo.
