6 North Street, Woodend, VIC 3442 Architect-Designed Sanctuary in Woodend with Stunning Garden, Self-Contained Studio & Passive Solar Features

Nestled in the heart of Woodend, in a beautiful tree lined street of Woodend, this architect-designed home exudes a perfect blend of artistic flair and thoughtful functionality. With golden elms lining the street and just steps from the golf course's third fairway, this property offers a unique lifestyle, private, peaceful, and just moments from the thriving Woodend village.

Every detail of the home reflects the careful craftsmanship of its creators, an architect and an artist. The home's clean lines and sophisticated design make a lasting impression, from the striking zig-zag fence that complements the house's geometry to the charming entry courtyard, framed by soft yellow tones. The stone path leads to a front porch with elegant dark red accents, where even the downpipes have been transformed into a formal arch, proof that no detail was overlooked.

Inside, the home features soaring 3-meter ceilings, polished concrete floors that glisten with natural light, and deep timber window frames flush with the plaster, creating a sense of seamless beauty. The entry hall has a parquet floor re-using Queensland maple from the 1940's house originally on the site, hydronic heating throughout and double-glazed windows.

The galley kitchen is a dream with sleek Neff appliances, while a large pantry and mudroom offer both function and ease of access to the rear of the house. A light-filled glass-roofed pod, housing a secret library, offers stunning views over the garden and connects the home with the outdoors in the most enchanting way.

The open plan living and dining areas are designed to be both expansive and intimate. With high ceilings and a fluid layout, these spaces feel airy and welcoming, yet the careful arrangement of timber details and thoughtful zoning creates a sense of warmth and coziness

The bedrooms are generously sized, with the main suite offering a walk-in wardrobe, dressing area, and an elegant en-suite. Two additional bedrooms at the other end of the house share the family bathroom, with built-in furniture offering a stylish yet practical solution.

Adding even more charm to the property is the self-contained studio. Bathed in natural light, it's the perfect space for guests, with a cozy wood heater, a micro en-suite, and a bedroom that opens directly to the garden. The creative energy flows through the workshop, where sunlight pours in, providing the perfect space for crafting bespoke joinery, while a large carport offers extra space for projects and hobbies.

The garden, a true highlight, is a haven of seasonal beauty. The cool climate of Woodend and its volcanic soils nurture a landscape of bulbs, flowering trees, and shady oaks. A trellis of wisteria shades the north-facing terrace, while roses trained over the windows offer both beauty and sun control. Whether it's enjoying the sun-dappled shade in summer or the bright floral displays in spring, the garden is always a delight.

The property is eco-friendly, with a solar array and hot water system that reduce environmental impact without sacrificing comfort. The home stays cozy year-round thanks to efficient room heating and a recirculating wood fire in the main living area. A large rainwater tank ensures sustainability, and NBN connectivity keeps you in touch with the outside world.

This home is truly a rare find, an elegant, architect-designed retreat with the perfect balance of artistic charm, modern convenience, and eco-conscious features. Located in one of Woodend's most desirable spots, it's a place where nature, design, and comfort all come together in perfect harmony.
