Framed by a vine-covered verandah and set amongst established gardens, 'Amani' Homestead offers the kind of country lifestyle that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Spanning approximately 68 acres, the property combines a comfortable family home and self contained studio, with outstanding equestrian and farming infrastructure, making it equally suited to horse enthusiasts, hobby farmers or those simply wanting room to spread out. Inside, the home is designed for relaxed living, with a light-filled lounge and dining area centred around a Norseman wood heater, while a separate living zone with its own external entrance offers flexibility for guest accommodation, a home office or multi-generational living. The well appointed kitchen features stone benchtops, a 900mm Omega cooker and a walk-in pantry, while modern bathrooms and generously proportioned bedrooms ensure everyday ease. The privately positioned main bedroom enjoys its own dressing room and ensuite, and opens directly onto a peaceful fernery, creating a quiet place to start or end the day. Outside, the home continues to impress. A wisteria-covered alfresco provides the perfect setting for entertaining, while practical features including solar power, bore and tank water, evaporative cooling and six dams support both the home and the land. The infrastructure is exceptional. A substantial 9m x 12m shed, dressage arena, stables and a fully self-contained two-bedroom portable building offer enormous flexibility, whether you're accommodating family, welcoming guests, running a home business or exploring additional income opportunities. Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property remains wonderfully connected. The centre of Castlemaine is just a 15-minute drive away, placing cafés, restaurants, schools, shopping, V/Line services and everyday conveniences within easy reach. It's a location that offers the best of both worlds Offering the space, privacy and infrastructure to embrace a genuine country lifestyle, this is a property that can adapt to almost any vision while delivering comfort from day one.
