My house is ten minutes from the supermarket in Heathcote in a quiet rural location. The house has a split cycle air conditioner, wood heater, big old country kitchen, mains power and tank water. It is 40 minutes from Bendigo, 90 minutes from Melbourne. There are a few pot plants (and the garden if necessary) to water, no pets to look after. Heathcote is a red wine area noted for its Shiraz and it has a very pleasant and friendly small community with good coffee and cafes and three pubs.
