5 Peppercress St, White Hills VIC 3550, Australia
We tend to judge properties right from our first impressions. Like mine, your first impression of this property is surely, that it’s an absolute stunner! What makes it so is the incredible street appeal. The home appears to be architecturally designed and impeccably maintained. Your eyes will be drawn immediately to the magnificent skillion roof. Skillion roofs are a brilliant choice in design in order to add minimalism and sophistication to a home. Here it’s a triumph! It’s a statement that this property is minimalist, sophisticated and stunning.
The self watering gardens are completely “easy care”. The small wall dividing the perfectly manicured lawn is made from exposed aggregate and is cleverly a contrasting colour to the exposed aggregate driveway. LED strip lighting highlights the connections of the decked pads that combine to create an elegant path to the welcoming portico entry. “Finesse” can be defined as: refinement or delicacy of workmanship, structure or texture. Hence, this property is finished with finesse. The workmanship, structure and textures are refined and have been created with a delicacy of hand. It’s so apparent, but in the most humble way.
Minimalist architecture uses simple design elements to create a sense of order and quality. Natural light and passive air flows are used to achieve simple, highly functional and clean spaces, which feel calming and homely. This is evident in the main bedroom which is favoured with two walk in robes, a lavish ensuite, generous proportions and sliding doors to a private parents courtyard. The second bedroom offers a generous walk in robe and there are built in robes to bedrooms three and four. A walk in storage room is in addition to a hallway storage cupboard. There is direct internal access from the double garage to the butler’s pantry via the laundry which serves cleverly as a mud room too. A powder room is ideally positioned within easy reach of the main living and entertaining areas. The brilliant cabinetry throughout the home is extensive and even includes a study nook. Sets of sliding doors connect the rumpus (currently set up as a home gym), and the main living and dining with the outdoor entertaining area (complete with audio speakers, power and a soon to be installed new barbeque preparation space).
A home of such finesse ought to be in a boutique neighbourhood – and it is! The location here is adjacent to the Bendigo Botanic Gardens. Dating all the way back to 1857, the gardens surround a central billabong and have undergone a multimillion dollar upgrade in recent years. The picturesque landscape is a collection of garden precincts, picnic areas, walking trails, play spaces and relaxation spots.
You’ll delight in sharing your home and its enviable lifestyle with your family, friends and pets. Not only are there the numerous health and wellbeing benefits of immediate access to the gardens, but also the White Hills seasonal swimming pool, the Bendigo cycling and walking Creek Trail and the Recreation Reserve. This location is surely a dream for families and retired couples alike who delight in an active lifestyle and enjoy the outdoors. Here you’re also only a short drive to Lake Weeroona and central Bendigo. There is also great access to transport, shops, primary and secondary schools, child care, medical and allied health services, shopping, dining, sport, entertainment, arts and culture.
