This property presents an affordable opportunity to enter the rural market and is ideal for those starting out or looking to downsize. In addition, this property has the added bonus of having an additional home site already cleared. The original intention of the previous owners was to build a larger home on the block. The proposed additional house site is positioned on the rear of the block and has been landscaped for privacy from the neighbours and the existing home on the block. If you were to build, the original home would make an ideal separate guest accommodation or the potential to earn additional income.
This private rural property is set on 2.39Ha (approx. 5.9 acres) of established gardens and park like grounds and features a lovely two bedroom home. Entry to the property is via a tree lined drive which leads through a mix of native trees with crab apples and Manchurian pears and through a willow tree arch which opens onto the magnificent gardens.
