7 Grevillea Close, Murrumbateman NSW 2582

Harcourts Belconnen is proud to bring to the market this delightful and unique home at 7 Grevillea Cl Murrumbateman. Murrumbateman remains an extremely popular place to live for families looking for a 'rural change' while still close to the city and its associated amenities. The home is located just 4 minutes drive to the Murrumbateman village, 26 minutes to Canberra's Northern suburbs and 16 minutes to Yass.

Known as 'La Via Verde' (The Green Way), this individually-styled country home, positioned at the end of the close in the desirable Merryville Park Estate, is set overlooking the vineyards of Shaw Wines. Offering a tranquil and private living experience, the home is uniquely designed in a U-shape ensuring that each room has views over the expansive landscape and gardens, gently in tune with the environment. The property wraps around a peaceful and sun-filled inner courtyard which forms the heart of the home complete with a columned pergola and fishpond feature sympathetic to the design of the home.

A single level structure, the home was built to solar passive energy standards, north-facing with high ceilings and full-length cedar windows throughout allowing bright natural light and crossflow ventilation into all the living areas and bedrooms providing an ambient inside temperature year-round. A 1.75kW north-facing solar array plus a 300L solar hot water system with electric boost-controlled load takes full advantage of the region's long sunshine hours and clear sky. Generous rainwater catchment from the property's roof comfortably services a 90,000L portable in-ground water tank.

All four bedrooms are of generous size, plus an additional large studio room which could be used as an office or a variety of other purposes. The master suite has a sliding door to its own sheltered garden deck, in addition to a walk-in robe and an attached ensuite bathroom.

The kitchen comes complete with walk-in pantry, plenty of meal preparation space, and is fully equipped for all your cooking needs with quality appliances. The home is kept perfectly heated during the colder months with a fuel fan-forced wood heater located centrally in the main living area.
There is an oversized double garage and ample additional parking. There is a large colourbond shed with power to help you manage some of the 5.26 acres of attached land divided into 3 paddocks with connected stock water.

Outdoors, the established rose gardens with a range of fruit and olive trees form part of immediate outlook from all living areas. The fenced paddock areas offers an enormous amount of space for horses, alpacas and sheep. The vegetable garden is well set up for your home grown produce.

This property is unique, and will be extremely popular, add it to your inspection list this weekend.
