A home thoughtfully designed in harmony with the surrounding natural environment at the end of a peaceful lane. The architectural style home sits centrally on five acres, amongst native and other well established gum trees. Picture perfect garden views are seen from the living room and bedroom windows. The outdoor areas are positioned to make the most of the garden scents, breezes and views of the outdoor environment. Home features include exposed post and beam construction, timber floors and a combination of wood and plaster walls to balance character with the internal light. Cedar windows frame the garden views and provide excellent thermal qualities throughout the home. The glass is made of a combination of single and double glazing, also providing for strategic openings for excellent cross ventilation and natural light. Dramatic cathedral and raked ceilings ensure a comforting and happy feeling of spaciousness and light. Interesting aspects abound everywhere you look. Features include, yet are not limited to; solar power, gas, wood and electric cooking appliances, slow combustion stove connected to the radiant panel heating, wood box heater, electric and gas heating, 2 reverse cycle air conditioners, walk in pantry, six water tanks, double carport, workshop, storage and shedding, wood shed, semi enclosed indoor /outdoor room, dam (with jetty) and a myriad of mainly native plants, trees and bushes with clearings for paths and open space. The surrounding area consists of one residential property of a similar size and farmland on the other two boundaries. Martyn Lane is a no through road. The location is within an easy drive of a myriad of sandy beaches, shops, restaurants, supermarkets, a new $115,000,000 regional hospital and established public and private schools. A proposal for a nearby rail trail would link Inverloch and Wonthaggi townships. If successful it would enable an opportunity to cycle, walk or e-bike into both towns and to the beach.
