Gisborne: Near-new home with ‘blank canvas’ grounds for saleon 11/08/2021 at 2:39 PM

29-35 Rockglen Way, Gisborne, offers 3.9ha of “blank canvas” land.

Almost 4ha of “blank canvas” grounds surround this high-end home, giving buyers the chance to inject their passions.

Whether the next owner is inspired by enduring Olympian Andrew Hoy to take up equestrian pursuits, or dreams of pottering away in “a beautiful garden”, they could make 29-35 Rockglen Way work for them, selling agent Kim McQueen says.

“It would also be wonderful with a swimming pool and tennis court,” Ms McQueen said.

“Or if you wanted some sheep or farm animals, or just to have the space around you, you could.”

The interior is both rustic and luxurious.

A wall of wine is a highlight of the main living, dining and kitchen space.

The grounds already feature a 30x15m shed with a mezzanine level and a studio that is being marketed as “perfect as an office or man cave”.

“It’s an enormous shed that will be any man’s absolute delight,” said Ms McQueen, director of McQueen Real Estate.

She noted the vendors had not had the opportunity to complete the landscaping after building the house about two to three years ago.

A freestanding tub is a highlight of the central bathroom.

Gorgeous views of rolling hills are on offer from the home.

They had done so to a high standard, combining rustic, natural finishes like stone benchtops, oak floorboards and barn doors with luxe features, including European kitchen appliances and a hi-tech cinema.

“The interiors have been very tastefully finished – they’re light and airy, but also have a lot of warmth,” Ms McQueen said.

“The barn doors, in particular, are amazing. They have all been made for the property.”

The agent said the home effectively had two kitchens, with a large butler’s pantry containing a second oven and dishwasher.

A wall-mounted wine cellar and a red brick-flanked open fireplace are striking additions to the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space.

The house is near new.

All five bedrooms feature walk-in wardrobes, while the two upstairs sleeping quarters have balconies.

A family bathroom with a freestanding stone tub, an office, a separate sitting room and a double garage complete the floorplan.

Ms McQueen said the package ultimately offered a “little piece of the country” only a 40-minute drive from inner Melbourne.

She said the Macedon Ranges and adjoining Hepburn Shire’s markets had been flying since the onset of Covid, as Melburnians sought more space – and there were “no signs of them dipping”.
