The rural lifestyle you’ve always dreamed of can be found beyond the gates of this gorgeous property. Designed for relaxed country living, the gracious brick residence enjoys an elevated setting well back from the road to maximise its desirable NE aspect, cooling afternoon sea breezes and panoramic views while guaranteeing absolute privacy. A wide, covered front verandah leads to an interior with traditional floorplan with Tasmanian Oak features throughout the home and spacious rooms fanning off the wide, central hallway and 9ft ceilings. The heart of the home is a light and bright country kitchen with tile benchtops, expansive granite-topped island bench, ample cabinetry, two double pantries and bay window delivering lovely property views. Beyond are the family dining and living rooms, while formal and informal dining and lounge rooms offer a more traditional atmosphere for larger gatherings. Befitting a family home, the enormous Master bedroom boasts lovely bay window, WIR and contemporary ensuite. Three further queen-size bedrooms all with BIR share a well-presented family bathroom. A sewing room/study/home office has built-in workbench, desk and cabinetry. Adjoining the well-proportioned laundry is a spacious powder room. The home is surrounded by manicured lawns and landscaped garden beds; an enclosed BBQ area with Heritage spa invites year-round alfresco dining and entertainment. Additional features include ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout, slow combustion heating in both living rooms, quality fixtures and fittings, 5.13kw solar system with 18 panels with Microinverters feeding back to the grid and connected to Enphase Energy which provides feedback on energy usage.
Beyond the home, the impressive infrastructure offers unlimited opportunities to explore a more self-sufficient lifestyle. A boutique house orchard delivers a bounty of citrus and stone fruit, while a fully enclosed dog run with kennel and adjoining fully fenced one-acre yard would make a wonderful chicken palace. A second, substantial permaculture orchard with netting and irrigation has large scale self-sustainability potential. The remaining acreage is gently undulating, well-fenced and 90% cleared to fertile pastures dotted with shade trees. Boasting a seasonal creek, 2 dams, 1 being spring-fed and 2 bores, the property is drought-proof and ideal for horses, cattle, alpacas, motor bikes or a variety of hobby-farming pursuits. Five water tanks. The fully lined, 21m x 15m Colourbond shed with dual roller doors, 3 phase power and 2 whirlybirds. Adjacent to the shed is a self-contained teenager’s retreat/guest house currently utilised as a very successful Airbnb accommodation venue. Additional three small sheds.
