Positioned on the outskirts of the cultural center of Cygnet, this mini farm style property is set-up to provide you with a wonderful self-sufficient lifestyle. There is so much packed into 2.7 acres here that you will love the set up without the requirement of large acreage. Fully fenced, there are 5 paddocks, the park-like grounds around the house, the orchard, the veggie production areas and a smaller enclosure ideal for the chickens. Fully irrigated with the source coming from your very own bore water supply is a huge bonus and adds great value to this fantastic set-up.
The house is a spacious, lovely 1962 character home. Maintained to a high level, there is very little to do but move in and enjoy the wonderful surrounds that are rural Cygnet. There are large picture windows through which you can enjoy the different aspects of the garden and from the living there is an extended view across the fields out towards the nearby Port Cygnet Bay. These big windows allow plenty of light into the open plan living spaces, creating a very pleasant home environment.
The country kitchen overlooks the veggie garden and comes with a practical island bench and stainless steel gas top stove. There is a large walk in pantry ideal for those jams and preserves you will want to make from the fruit tree orchard out the back. The kitchen looks over the main living with a formal dining off to one side. Here there are full length bookcases and those amazing picture windows that make you feel like you are literally dining in the garden. Kept snug in the cooler months, the living areas are heated with a free standing wood fire and all backed up with a reverse cycle air-conditioner.
Down the end off the main living, there is a great extra room, which can be made to suit your needs. Complete with a huge amount of storage and box window seats, perfect to ponder over the garden and rural surrounds. This could be the kids' activity room, a spare guest room or a more formal lounge. The bedrooms are all at the other end of the house, each with own views and all spacious. A central family bathroom is practical at the end of the hallway.
Step through the back door and you are in a super-practical, enclosed mud-room or sunroom, which is ideal for the boots, coats and shoes. Here the extra fridge and freezer have plenty of space with easy access from the kitchen. This leads into the backyard, which consists of the house veggie garden and a clever outdoor spa bath. Just a little touch of luxury. Nearby is a garden shed, great for the gardening implements and storage for the mower and bikes. Around the side, the garden provides the ideal shaded setting for your outdoor entertaining, a great place to sit back with a good book, or just taking in the peaceful surrounds.
At the entrance there is a drive-through carport with covered access straight into the front door and to the side the double garage securely houses 2 more cars behind roller doors. On from this, there is a large shed. Two thirds is the workshop, with one end fully lined and insulated for the office or perfect games room. It even has its own reverse cycle air-conditioner for complete comfort all year round. Outside there is the most awesome veggie-growing set-up with full bore water irrigation and own separate access from the road. Take it all on and try your hand at growing produce for the local markets or just kick back and enjoy the beautiful surrounds.
The use of the land here is seriously well thought out. The individually fenced enclosures allow for rotation of the sheep and hay production as well as the ability to have different animals should that be of interest. Maybe some goats, a pig, a cow and the chickens too. The mature fruit tree orchard produces a variety of different fruits that will keep the whole family fed all summer. Finally, there is a large lawn area for the kids and pets to run around on in complete safety with a huge Horse Chestnut tree that provides some great shade on sunny days.
