It's easy to understand how Junortoun has become one of Bendigo's most sought-after lifestyle suburbs. Only minutes from schools and shopping in Bendigo and Strathfieldsaye, but with a leafy green outlook, open rural views and crisp fresh air.

When searching for a home, it is instinctive to seek comfort and function; but many people also describe their desire to find a property that reflects them – that tells a story that represents them.

In the absence of such properties, the brave and daring amongst us create or commission these homes. "Clear View" is one such creation, designed by previous original owners who wished to achieve a home that would function exactly as they wished, would be exactly as comfortable as they preferred; and would be appreciated by the community for its unique beauty.

The home is generously proportioned, completely elegant and delightfully relaxed. Set on 2.5 acres with a dam, there is plenty of space for you to add your own touches to the property. Perhaps build a shed in addition to the 3-car garage, or install a pool and additional gardens. Landscape the property to enhance your enjoyment of the views from the numerous windows and vantage points throughout the home.

Beyond the welcoming curvaceous verandah, impressive entry hall and rumpus room, the ground floor boasts a spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area. This is all in addition to a formal dining room and yet another living area with an impressive bar. The ambient crackle of the fire, soft lighting and your favourite music tracks will keep your friends and family returning to enjoy your hospitality at every opportunity. Don't despair if the bar runs dry on any such occasion – simply pop down to the cellar for another bottle.

With five bedrooms each with fitted robes, or four plus a study, the home is easily adapted according to your requirements and also boasts three bathrooms. A set of double doors between bedroom two and the main on the first floor provides a great opportunity to create a relaxing parents retreat, or is a handy nursery. A walk-through robe connects the main bedroom with a lavish marble ensuite.

Perhaps not immediately obvious, the property is connected to town water and the NBN. The home also features abundant storage provision, laundry chute, ducted heating throughout, ducted cooling on the first floor, ducted vacuum system, secure tool storage and a servery window from the kitchen to the brilliant rear entertaining deck.

A bird's-eye view of the area provides insight into the characteristics of this elite pocket of Junortoun. Properties here are substantial sizes and homes are generously proportioned. There are swimming pools, neat easy-care gardens, dams and large sheds. You will observe that this is a private, proud and very friendly neighbourhood and there is immediate access to the O'Keefe Rail Trail.

You'll also notice that whether you travel to central Bendigo on McIvor Highway via Junortoun or Strathfieldsaye Road via Strathfieldsaye, there are bitumen roads all the way. You'll pass supermarkets, popular schools, and great amenities in both directions. As the city population swells and our housing sprawls, it's perhaps smart to be positioned with easy access to two main arterial routes in order to future proof convenient travel times.
