Set well back from the road, at the end of a driveway that is flanked by level paddocks, is this much cherished family home. Offered to the market for the first time since the current owners built it, the light and airy home retains the warmth and functionality of its original conception with some subsequent enhancements to add to its overall enjoyment. Whilst appealing to those seeking a home of family proportions, it is the incredibly tranquil setting, with stunning vista of Wellington Park and surrounds, combined with flexible lifestyle opportunities that make this a remarkable proposition. Level, fenced pastures have seen many a horse grazing here and there is no doubt that the property will continue to lend itself perfectly to such a use. Equally, the hobby farmer or horticultural enthusiast will be delighted with the abundant opportunity on offer here.
The accommodation comprises four bedrooms, the main bedroom wing also with ensuite bathroom and access to a sizeable covered terrace suitable for versatile al fresco entertaining. The main bathroom and separate toilet serve the remaining three bedrooms, which all have built-in wardrobes. The more recently installed farmhouse style Tasmanian Oak kitchen with a gas range is the hub of the house, with ample space and flexibility for use as an eat-in option or family room. Adjacent to this area is the formal dining, which could also be used as a study. The other wing, apart from the well-proportioned remaining bedrooms, houses the formal living area with open fire place, and a great place to retreat to and "snug up" on those cooler winter evenings, conservatory, additional terrace, laundry and the all-important boot room.
Externally, beyond the surrounding child and pet friendly gardens, there is a double lock-up garage adjacent to a vehicle turning circle that offers copious additional parking, four water tanks, a fenced orchard/vegetable garden, a workshop that has been behind numerous successful projects, and a variety of outbuildings including barn, woodshed and the bush "Cabin", where many a fine time has been enjoyed by young and old alike.
