Referring to a feeling, mood, or an atmosphere containing something pleasant, relaxed, safe, and comfortable; that’s Hyggelig - that is 405 Heathcote-Redesdale Road. Set over 10 acres bordered by the Argyle State Forest, “HYGGELIG” is a place for families to relax and entertain, to play and grow. A peaceful, private escape with hidden garden rooms and open green spaces. A children’s delight with in-ground pool and trampoline, cubby house, sandpit and a lake-like dam to explore.
The centrepiece is the renovated mudbrick residence. North facing with vine draped patio and full wall of large glass windows and French doors, this substantial home is not pretentious. It blends the earthy, cosy feel of its mudbrick construction with its modern conveniences beautifully. It is a home to be lived in and enjoyed. There are three generous bedrooms including a master suite with huge ensuite bathroom. The kitchen is well appointed and open plan, overlooking the family room. A light-filled dining room overlooks the patio as does the separate lounge, cosy sitting area and study. The home has plenty of storage, wood heating and reverse cycle units for cooling.
In addition to the main house there is a mudbrick studio that would make an ideal artist’s space or guest quarters. Attached to the main house for vehicles is a double carport. Well established garden beds and walled garden rooms offer quiet places to sit or entertain and work to connect the house and studio along meandering paths through seasonal plantings. From the front patio, you have a clear view to the dam and the treescape of the state forest. It is a beautifully shaded place to entertain outdoors. Fruit trees and vegetable gardens are maintained by a reticulated watering system and there are shiraz vines, planted by the previous owner, that may be reinvigorated with time and attention. The property has good fencing, ample rainwater storage, and a three-meg dam.
“HYGGELIG” is a peaceful, private escape, 5 kilometres from the Heathcote township, close to Lake Eppalock for water activities and 90 minutes to Melbourne.
