72 High Street, Trentham.

Access the walkable lifestyle of central Trentham from this spacious cedar residence on nearly acre (1318sqm). Highview is perched on the high side of the road, surveying a view across Trent Creek reserve. This practical, low maintenance design is perfect for that relaxed, safe and enjoyable country experience. It could suit as a weekend retreat, a first home, a downsize property, or an investment; and all within an easy commute of Melbourne. The open plan kitchen, filled with light from the Northerly aspect, features solid cedar cupboards and bench tops. It is adjacent to a spacious dining and living area, a large open-plan space, with exposed beams and a 2.85m pitched ceiling. It easily accommodates a study nook, providing the opportunity to establish a work-from-home routine for those seeking a healthy work-life balance. A sliding door offers direct access to the front veranda. Two generous bedrooms, both with built-in robes, are pleasant and light. The roomy central bathroom has a bath, shower recess and vanity. The toilet is separate, and there is a laundry/boot room off the kitchen, with rear access to the backyard. The extras include 2.5 KW solar panels on the roof, an electric heat pump hot water system, and a bottled-gas modern space heater. A double carport provides easy access to both the front and back door, but there is also a huge double shed with a remotely controlled door, which has room for a car and other equipment, plus a large workshop. There is another shed, too - plenty of scope for productivity and creativity. The block is a blank canvas: enhance the front dry-stone retaining wall, landscape further with the stockpile of local stone to create a stunning garden of cool-climate plants, hedges and fruit trees, plant a veggie patch So, what are you waiting for? This home, brimming with promise, is close to the Trentham primary school and an easy walk to the trendy Trentham retail precinct, markets, library, community hall and other facilities. Dont be surprised, though, if the community extends to the animal kingdom; kangaroos occasionally graze nearby at dawn and dusk, and families of ducks waddle up from the creek from time to time.
