This gorgeous property, listed by Bianca Taylor at The Property Co.

From the moment you step through the original lead-light front entrance, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that flows throughout.
The formal front lounge, with its lead-light windows, ceiling rose, and cosy wood fire, sets the tone for the rest of the home. The high ceilings and fresh, updated carpet create a sense of space, while ceiling fans in every bedroom ensure comfort year-round. Bedrooms are generously sized, with Bedroom 2 featuring built-in robes and Bedroom 3 boasting a charming log-look electric fire. Each bedroom is beautifully accented with original mantle pieces, adding character and warmth to the space.
The master bedroom, part of the modern extension, offers a private retreat with a light-filled, tranquil atmosphere and views over the front garden. It's a true sanctuary, with a walk-in robe featuring custom cabinetry and an ensuite boasting a walk-in shower, vanity, and toilet.
At the heart of this family abode is a spacious kitchen with ample solid timber cabinetry and modern, updated appliances including a dishwasher.

This open-plan space is perfect for both everyday family meals and entertaining guests.
The modern extension further enhances the home's functionality with a large laundry space, offering great storage and access to the side yard through glass doors. The luxury-look bathroom is another standout, complete with a walk-in shower, a luxe bath, vanity, and toilet – an elegant space to relax and unwind. Plus, with a third separate toilet nearby, there's plenty of convenience for busy family life.
One of the true highlights of this home is its expansive 6.5m x 7m living space. With high ceilings and modern vinyl planking, this area effortlessly blends with the original charm of the home while providing the ideal space for family gatherings or entertaining. Large sliding doors open onto the pergola, extending the living area outdoors to an enviable setting with views over the yard and back paddock. The pergola, with its concrete floor (ready to be polished if desired), offers an excellent space for outdoor dining, relaxation, or enjoying the beautiful surroundings.
Beyond the home, this property truly excels. The L-shaped block spans a generous 12 acres, with dual access from Riddoch Highway/Bay Road and Tarrant Road.
