Offering the best of both worlds, "Jounama" is the epitome of quiet country living, but is conveniently located just 10 minutes from the suburbs and 30 minutes from the heart of Canberra.
This secluded 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is tucked privately away on a quiet lane in Springrange on a manageable 24.28ha (60 acres).
Careful design and planning have been invested over the past 40 years into the home's stunning gardens. Featuring more than 40 fruit and nut trees plus vegetable patches, the garden works with the seasons to provide for its owners.
Immaculate cottage gardens complement the productive side, making it an abundant home for birdlife and bees.
While the gardens can be enjoyed from numerous vantage points outside, the ultimate location to view them is from the home's show-stopping sunroom.
Featuring a grand gabled roof with floor-to-ceiling windows, natural light and garden views surround this tiled room, making it a tranquil sanctuary to be enjoyed all year round.
The large, 160m2 home features two updated bathrooms, plus a third toilet leading directly outside, and a well-appointed kitchen with natural light from the window above the double sink.
Stonework surrounding the slow combustion heater is a decorative focal point in the large living room, which leads directly into the second living space, the sunroom.
All four bedrooms fill with natural light thanks to large windows, with the main bedroom featuring on-trend timber panelling on one wall.
A well-ventilated home with quality insulation in the walls and ceilings and double glazing in most rooms, the almost new reverse cycle unit is only there as a backup.
Keeping the cost of living down is a solar hot water installation, a 5kw solar power system and rainwater tanks. Outside there is powered shedding with ample storage, undercover space for five cars and a turning circle driveway for easy access.
Previously running up to 100 sheep, the property's water needs are supported by two large dams and it also has a bore as a backup supply, however, it is yet to be called upon.
One dam is located on the property's boundary at the top of a hill, allowing for natural water pressure to eradicate the need for a pump and its associated costs. The second 70m x 25m dam doubles as a recreational space, used for swimming, canoeing and yabbying and can be stocked with fish.
Located in the small area called Springrange, "Jounama" is within easy reach of the exceptional food and wine experiences the Yass Valley has to offer, including Springrange's very own renowned vineyard, restaurant and pantry, Poacher's Pantry.
However, being just a 10 minute drive from the suburbs of the nation's capital, Canberra, ideally positions "Jounama" as a place to access the best of both worlds - sublime regional living but close to city conveniences.
