Take advantage of a booming market Marg Keogh of Keogh Real Estate in Castlemaine says the agency is as busy as it has been during traditional ‘boom’ times.

“We’re getting more and more enquiries all the time - we’ve never been busier,” Marg says.

“We list and we are getting enquiries during the first few hours of a property being advertised.”

While a great deal of buyer interest comes from Melbourne, Keogh Real Estate is receiving plenty of calls from property hunters living in Gisborne, Woodend, Lancefield and Drummond as well, all keen to make the move Mount Alexander way.

There is also plenty of interest from locals for building blocks and vacant land while others are looking for centrally located properties, character properties, units and lifestyle blocks of two to 10 acres. “These are very popular with locals as well,” Marg says.

Large acres are a rarity, she says, they just don’t come onto the market that often.

“Right now is a wonderful time to sell,” Marg says. “There’s not a lot of competition and vendors will get a better price.

“Price is all driven by demand,” Marg says, adding that the good news is that while city prices might have slipped, prices in the country have been on the increase.Keogh Real Estate is available seven days. If you are wanting to sell contact them now or if you are in the market to buy, put your name down with them so they can match you up with suitable properties as soon as the come on the market.

Nicely positioned in a quiet, desirable estate on its 618-square-metre (approx.) allotment, this beautiful five-bedroom executive home has been built to entertain, and is the ultimate in low-maintenance living for those who lead busy modern lifestyles.

Quality built by Paul Gray Homes for Glenville, the residence offers a series of welcoming, light-filled spaces against a lovely garden outlook.

The clever floor plan features a formal living room for that quiet break in your day.

Of the five bedrooms, two are conveniently located on the ground floor, including the impressive master bedroom and wow-factor ensuite with double vanities and deep bath - the perfect retreat with that glass of bubbly at the end of the working day.

A great feature of the delightful home is the large picture windows running the length of the hallway allowing light to enter and giving you the feeling of being outdoors.

From here you reach the dining/family space with its gas log fire to create that cosy, relaxed mood. The gorgeous custom-made kitchen with European appliances and walk-in pantry allows you to prepare meals and chat with guests at the same time.

Completing the thoughtful and generously proportioned layout downstairs is the laundry, powder room and integrated double garage with a practical back roller door.

Upstairs, you will find the rumpus room with views to Mount Macedon, the family bathroom, separate toilet and walk-in linen cupboard. Three very generous bedrooms are off this space, one currently used as the quiet home office.

The home is fully insulated, and other features include quality curtains, blinds and shutters, zoned ducted gas heating, ducted refrigerated air conditioning, glass and solid wooden doors, plus good storage.

Exceptional undercover and outdoor entertaining can truly be delivered within an effortless low-maintenance setting nicely landscaped by Tedo Beggs, whose beautifully crafted stonework enhances your entertaining experience, and at the same time maximises the space.

From the family room you are invited outdoors to the raised dining area, lovingly referred to as the hut, to enjoy those lazy days with family and friends. There is also a fire pit and conversation area to enjoy in the sunshine with a cup of coffee or glass of wine. One side of the property has some lovely deciduous trees that will delight when you are working at the kitchen sink. A shed, cat run and storage are here as well as vegetable boxes, and small orchard of apple, pear and plum trees.
