Diamond Creek, Victoria

About this house sitting position in Diamond Creek

CURRENTLY IN DISCUSSION WITH HOUSE SITTERS. NO FURTHER ENQUIRIES REQUIRED AT THIS TIME.
We are looking for two adults or a couple or family. We live on 4 acres in a rural area amongst similar sized properties on the outskirt of Diamond Creek and near Wattle Glen/ Hurstbridge. We are a close drive to the Yarra Valley wine region. The house is a combination of a 30yr old mud brick house with an extension and renovation this year of a parent retreat with ensuite, laundry and bathroom. The land is full of trees and two paddocks with the house set high on a large flat area away from the road. It is clean and light including well appointed sky lights. The view is lovely, its peaceful and regular wildlife visit such as kangaroos, echidna, kookaburras and owls with many bird varieties. The house is extremely comfortable with reverse airconditioning/heating as well as two log heaters which are a dream in winter.
The garden is largely drought proof and shouldn't require much watering. We are more interested in the animals having company, play and walks.
We have 2 friendly dogs. Lotta is a small 6yo Cavoodle and Poppy is a 1yo miniature Groodle. There are 2 cats, Oscar and Leo and 2 horses Bonnie and Bubbles (a mini). The horses may not be on property for the house sit period. For those requiring a caravan on site there is an area half way up the drive on a flatish open area. There is also a turning circle up by the house with room to park a van. Read more...
