This beautiful 16ha (40acre) property will give you the opportunity to enjoy the peace and quiet of the country while being in easy reach of Queanbeyan, Bungendore, and Canberra. The gently undulating landscape is expansive and offers a real a sense of privacy, you can relax and breathe in this beautiful landscape.
After a long, hard day you can sit on the long verandah that wraps around two sides of the house, with your favourite drink in hand sitting in your favourite chair, enjoying the restful views that go for miles. Life doesn't get much better than this.
As soon as you walk in the door you can feel the solid nature of this extremely well constructed home. There have been no changes to the home since the original construction in 1989 and the quality of the build is evident in the lasting nature of the home, a refreshing contrast to some newer builds.
The high raked ceilings in the living areas give a great sense of space. The Western Red Cedar feature walls add a lovely warmth and bring out the honey tones in the slate floor. It has a really lovely feel to it, homely yet spacious, child and pet friendly with tiles in the high wear areas and carpet in the bedrooms. This home is comfortable all year round, remaining cool in summer and staying warm in winter thanks to the hydronic heating in every room. Well crafted features, such as the exquisite handmade lead lighting panels are everywhere in the home and are a constant reminder of the quality build.
There is plenty of water on the property, with two large concrete water tanks and five dams (two of which are spring-fed). There is a round yard in good repair close to one of the dams, ready for livestock or horses. The property's gentle hills and valleys are the perfect ratio of grassed areas and trees.
The mature orchard has a large selection of fruit trees including: Nashi pear, nectarine, peach, plum, Pink Lady and Johnathon apples, feijoa, pear, and pomegranate trees.
This is a comfortable home to move straight into, or freshen up the aesthetics with fresh paint and some minor changes and voila!
