The epitome of elegance, the rural lifestyle you?ve been searching for is here!
The centrepiece of this spectacular 48 acre property is the stately homestead worthy of a dress circle location. The homestead itself was modelled on the historic Elizabeth Farm in Parramatta which in its? day was described as ?A large but simple dwelling resembling farmhouses in the south of England?. The Georgian style evolved to become what is now referred to as the iconic Australian Homestead. Today the historic styling of ?Wandana? blends well in providing modern living comforts, yet captivating the warmth of a by gone era. Nestled privately on gently undulating country amongst mature park like gardens you?ll never tire of the stunning rural vista,,,, And, all of this just seven minutes drive to the quaint village of Hall and less than 30 minutes to Canberra?s CBD.
The tree lined formal driveway from sealed road frontage, leads to a large circular driveway encompassing formal garden overlooking the water feature dam and spectacular Brindabella Range views beyond.
Step into the homestead through the formal entry with high ceilings and wide hallways evident. The north wing consists of four generous sized bedrooms, modern bathroom and ensuite, large formal lounge room, dining room, main sitting room and functional kitchen.
