Are you looking for a property different from the usual 5 or 10 acre ones which surround Canberra? Most of them are simply a nice place to live in the country with similar neighbours just over the fence.

This one is genuine rural with 70 mostly usuable acres, (28.3 Hectares.) It will and has run cattle, sheep and goats and includes the necessary facilities. There are 9 paddocks in all with water troughs to 4 of them. A large dam pumps to a tank on a hill to reticulate to them. Also included is a basic set of sheep and goat yards.

There is a 3 bay machinery shed and a large enclosed workshop to look after the equipment, a chook shed, tool shed plus various animal shelters. An excellent bore provides back up for the gardens and stock and with a 100,000 litre house tank the water situation is excellent.
The house is an extremely spacious and well-presented solar passive home with a beautiful sunroom right across the front taking in the great views. Accommodation includes 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, rumpus, study and a mudroom !

The main family living area has an extra TV room at the end. The kitchen is also big and includes both a fuel cooking stove plus a double sized gas and electric range and of course a dishwasher. The fuel stove has a wetback to heat the water in the winter while there is a solar system backed up with an electric booster for the warmer months.

An additional slow combustion heater handles the main warming while there is a split system air conditioner for the in between times.
The laundry is oversized and provides extra storage as well, while the main bedroom is huge and also enjoys the same splendid district and distant hill views as the living areas.

This is a farmhouse which really works, having both traditional practical features in addition to being a modern home. Life here will always be a world away from living in town, having an end of road location means zero traffic noise but you are only 30 minutes from Civic.
There are simply too many features to describe in full, so if this sounds like your preferred lifestyle call for your personal inspection.
