Wallington 18 McAllister Court

Here is a superb 6-bedroom colonial-style family home on 3.5 acres set in the rolling hills and seclusion of Wallington.

The 10-year-old house is full of light and space and large rooms, and one end of it could be used in granny-flat style. It is a house carefully designed for entertaining, whether inside or out.

There are three comfortable bathrooms, and a beautiful family area comprising elegant kitchen with breakfast bar, dining room and sitting room. The house has overhead ducted heating and cooling throughout plus LAN cabling. It is also connected to town gas. An outstanding feature is a second separate formal living/dining room with gas coal fire.

There's also a games room, a study, a wine room, a gymnasium, a laundry and a second family room. The spacious master bedroom has an enormous WIR and an ensuite complete with spa. Most other bedrooms have spacious BIR.

Outside are glorious gardens with a range of established trees, three orchards (stone fruit, olive and apple), a chicken coop, vegetable patch, stable, gigantic garage/workshop/boat storage and a paddock that has been converted for BMX-motor bikes.

The current owner adores the seclusion, the abundant bird life, which includes wrens, parrots, magpies, the graceful outside pergola area alongside in-ground solar-heated swimming pool, the reticulated grey-water system and the glorious sunsets.

This exceptional property has nearby schools and sports facilities and is a short drive from Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads, and only 20 minutes to Geelong. The surrounding countryside is superb for walking, cycling and horse-riding.
