The four bedroom period home was relocated three years ago and has had significant renovations. It has been freshly painted inside and out and has high ceilings with original picture rails. All decking, stairs and ramp are new with fresh white balustrades.
Enjoy the sunset from the roomy front verandah which opens to a wide entry that leads into a formal lounge or games room with ample space for a lounge suite or billiard table. This room then flows into the spacious open plan living area which has a wood heater and split system. Its a great space for entertaining or for a large family to enjoy comfortably. The glass doors lead out to an pleasant area on the rear verandah which overlooks park like gardens heading down towards the creek at the rear of the property. From the deck there are steps to the garden and a convenient ramp to the shed.
The kitchen is light and has plenty of storage, a pantry, electric oven and gas cooktop, a dishwasher and a pretty outlook to the garden and ornamental pear trees.
All four bedrooms are a good size with three having split systems and very large robes. The master bedroom has an attractive, functional ensuite with separate shower. The second bedroom is currently used as an office/study and has a small cupboard. At the rear of the house are two lovely bedrooms with partial bay windows and fantastic tree views.
There is a separate toilet and huge family bathroom with two corner vanities, shower and large bath. Plenty of room for big families to share in the mornings. A large double linen press is in the hallway next to the laundry with an external door.
Outside there is a lot to take in. Good lighting around the house, neat gravel driveway and turn around space for vehicles. Theres a large three year old, five bay Colorbond shed that would please most tradies or anyone with hobbies and toys. It is 18x7.5m and 3m high, has three large roller doors, a personal access door plus a small carport and rainwater tank at the very end. Inside the floor is concreted and theres lots of LED lighting and plenty of power points.
From the shed, down a path towards the creek and through a lovely treed area is a long open shelter originally used as a great potting shed for avid gardeners. At either end there are small water tanks, a shed for garden tools and mowers and a carport that will house a caravan. This area has plenty of open space for setting up tables and hay bales for a great outdoor shindig. Or enjoy a quiet wine with the abundant bird life at happy hour.
Throughout this property the garden has lots of areas with their own focal point - two renovated bridges, a garden deck yet to be restored, a rusty old boat, seasonal bulbs and irises, fruit and deciduous trees with stunning blossom and autumn colour. There is plenty of room for family and friends to camp or bring their motorhomes. A family wedding with seating for 80 was held under two magnificent old peppercorn trees. Under the shade surrounded by attractive garden beds, it is the perfect place to sit and read a book, do some yoga or host a gathering.
