Perfect for those seeking a quiet life close to the city, you can retreat in peace to this picturesque rural setting without straying too far from the conveniences of major regional centres, with Maitland, Raymond Terrace and East Maitland just half an hour away.
Shielded from the road by a stand of towering gum trees, the property contains both cleared and heavily forested landscapes, with two dams providing a potential water source for stock or horses, while dense bushland provides nature lovers and bird watchers with the perfect habitat to explore.
The home itself is a charming mix of traditional country elements and more contemporary finishes.
Featuring a double brick and tiled roof construction, the home has been built to last, however new carpet in the bedrooms and hallway, and fresh paint throughout give the interior a fresh, new feel.
Floor tiles provide a hard-wearing and practical surface in the sitting and dining rooms, as well as the kitchen, while floating timber floorboards add to the cosy ambience created by the large brick fireplace with timber mantle in the lounge area.
Exposed brick feature walls and timber roof beams give the home a rustic country charm beautifully complemented by the soaring vaulted ceilings, which make the spaces feel light and airy.
The home has been laid out in two distinct zones, with the living areas on the lower level and the four bedrooms and study running along a long hallway on the upper section of the split level design.
A study sits at one end of the hall and provides access to the grand master suite, making it the ideal space for a home office or as nursery for new parents wanting to remain close to their baby.
A huge four-door built-in wardrobe runs along one wall of the main bedroom providing more than enough storage space, while a modern ensuite with floor-to-ceiling tiles makes this a true parents retreat.
The remaining three bedrooms are all generously-proportioned while the family bathroom has a convenient three-way design that is useful for large families. A good-sized laundry is conveniently located next door to the bathroom, with external access to the side of the house.
The living areas at the front of the home are separated into three distinct zones, with an oversized lounge room at one end providing direct access to the extended verandah via two large timber sliding doors with integrated cedar blinds.
A cosy sitting room and good-sized dining room are located either side of the entry foyer, with a second wood-burning fireplace on the rear wall keeping these spaces warm during the cooler months.
A traditional country kitchen is accessible via the dining room, offering a stylish and practical layout with an extensive u-shaped bench, large walk-in pantry, separate storeroom and central island bench providing ample storage and preparation space.
Quirky touches including a custom-made feature light add to the rustic feel, while two large windows over the sink provide stunning views over the property.
With extensive living and entertaining areas including a detached versatile space that could become the ultimate games room or an ideal teenagers retreat, and a timber decked verandah running the length of the house, the property is ideal for large families or those who love to entertain.
Two dams, a four-car carport and separate shed with power add to the propertys appeal, while almost ten acres of land provides all the space and privacy you could need.
