Positioned within the picturesque landscapes of Bullengarook, in the Macedon Ranges, Beltane is a premium rural estate for sale that offers an unparalleled lifestyle, seamlessly blending serene country living with ultimate urban convenience. Spanning an impressive 157 acres (approx.) of prime land and crowned by a commanding 480 metre elevation, this lifestyle property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a private sanctuary with city views, two homes and bordering the tranquil expanse of the State Forest.
A TIMELESS HOMESTEAD WITH UNMISTAKABLE CHARACTER
At the heart of "Beltane" lies a magnificent limestone and cedar homestead, a testament to timeless design and enduring comfort. Renovated 10 years ago, the residence radiates warmth and character, featuring soaring pitched ceilings that reach up to 8 metres and expansive, double-glazed timber windows that flood the interiors with natural light while framing breathtaking vistas of the rolling countryside.
The generously proportioned layout is designed for both intimate family living and sophisticated entertaining. It includes:
- A grand entry foyer, anchored by an imposing antique black spiral staircase, immediately impresses with its scale and timeless style.
- A formal lounge room with a charming open fireplace and classic bay windows.
- A gourmet kitchen, truly the heart of the home, equipped with two ovens (one Rayburn and one Aga), a large marble benchtop, and abundant storage, including a walk-in pantry.
- Four beautifully appointed bedrooms. The master suite is a private haven with a walk-in robe and a full ensuite. Two additional bedrooms feature built-in robes, while a distinctive fourth bedroom is accessed via a spiral staircase sourced from Melbourne's historic Block Arcade, complete with its own ensuite.
- Modern comforts are assured with three split systems, a woodfire, and underfloor heating in the main bathroom and the sewing room/study.
- An indoor solar-heated saltwater swimming pool with an adjoining pump room, perfect for year-round relaxation and entertaining.
The outdoor amenities at "Beltane" are as compelling as its interiors, establishing this acreage as a true sanctuary for a recreational and nature-immersed lifestyle. The estate is blessed with extensive water resources, including four dams and a large, picturesque lake teeming with fish. The seasonal Cataract Creek meanders through the property, with two sturdy concrete bridges providing access as the road winds towards the two homes.
For the enthusiast, this property features:
- Excellent equestrian facilities, including two horse stables and a wash-down area.
- Extensive shedding, including a four-bay open shed, a workshop with its own fire, and a chicken shed.
- An established orchard of 20-30 year old fruit trees, including apple, plum, nectarine, apricot, and gooseberry varieties, alongside a dedicated hazelnut grove.
- Elegantly crafted raised garden beds, perfect for a kitchen garden to cultivate herbs, vegetables, and flowers.
Adding exceptional value and versatility, this property is ideal for multi-generational living thanks to a spacious two bedroom granny flat. Thoughtfully constructed in 2008 and perfectly situated to overlook the tranquil lake, this entirely self-contained dwelling features a woodfire and split system, offering independent living for extended family, private accommodation for guests, or a lucrative opportunity for rental income.
