18 Doodts Road,
Nerrina 3350, Victoria

Set on an expansive 1,774m² allotment in the highly sought-after suburb of Nerrina, this stunning home offers the perfect blend of lifestyle, convenience and tranquillity. Just 600 metres from Café al Nord for your morning coffee, only seven minutes to Lake Wendouree and Ballarat's CBD including the train station, and with easy freeway access, you are also within ten minutes of Stockland Wendouree and a selection of leading private secondary colleges. Families will love being within walking distance of Black Hill Primary School, while the leafy surrounds create a feeling of being worlds away from the hustle and bustle.

The home itself is warm and welcoming, with generous living on entry enhanced by a wood fire that sets the tone for both comfort and ambience. A split system unit adds further convenience, and the space is so versatile it could be easily divided to create a second living area or even a dedicated study without compromising on room to relax and entertain. From the moment you step inside, the striking atrium in the heart of the home captures your attention, flooding the interior with natural light and seamlessly connecting the indoors with the surrounding landscape.

The open plan kitchen, dining and living area flows effortlessly onto a spacious rear deck that overlooks the expansive backyard. The kitchen has been recently refreshed and features stainless steel appliances, pantry, ample counter space and abundant storage, combining practicality with style. Accommodation is impressive, with the master suite offering an ensuite and built-in robes, complemented by three further bedrooms-two with built-in robes and ceiling fans-alongside a central bathroom with separate toilet. A well-appointed laundry with direct outside access completes the floor plan.

Further highlights include brand new carpets throughout, freshly sanded and stained timber flooring, ducted central heating, wood heating, split system cooling, a solar panel system to offset energy costs, ducted vacuum, new shower screens and tapware in both bathrooms, and a hard-wired security system available.

Externally, the property continues to shine with a double carport, a garage large enough for two vehicles or for use as a workshop, side access with secure gates, a large rear deck, under-house storage, and a separate storeroom. The landscaped gardens are truly a standout, designed by a landscape gardener with an emphasis on native, low-maintenance plantings that bloom year-round. Yellow-tailed black cockatoos visit in flocks to feed on the hakea trees, while a diversity of native birds make this a true haven for birdwatchers. Hand-sculpted lizard baths carved into rocks add charm and character, while a thriving orchard of fruit trees-including plum, cherry, quince, apple, pear, lemon, olive, pomegranate and fig-further enriches this remarkable property.

This home offers something truly special-a lifestyle sanctuary where nature, space, architecture and convenience come together. To experience it for yourself, contact the exclusive listing agent Jo Thornton 0409 356 478 today to arrange your private viewing.
