Do you dream of raising your family in a magical semi rural setting? A place where you can sit on the back verandah and watch the kids picnic in the paddocks by the creek or fish in the dam?

Then this property could be your dream come true. Set on five picturesque acres with tree-lined seasonal Bullock Creek on the rear boundary, this zesty little farmlet has something to appeal to every member of the family.

The kids will love the outdoor adventures, mum can ramble in the garden, collect the eggs and pick fresh fruit and vegetables while dad tinkers in the workshop or relaxes in his man cave.

The homestead-style home offers shady verandahs back and front, four bedrooms plus study, two updated bathrooms, two living areas and a light-filled kitchen and dining area overlooking the rear garden and tree-studded paddocks beyond.

Various forms of heating and cooling include IXL stove and wood heater, split system units, electric wall-mounted heaters and ducted air conditioning.

Every bedroom includes robes and ceiling fans and the main enjoys the added convenience of an ensuite with separate WC.

All that accommodation will be handy when friends come to visit every weekend and entertaining them will be a breeze with a paved outdoor alfresco area complete with fire pit and a cheery open fireplace and air con in the man cave/external rumpus.

Assorted shedding provided shelter for the chickens, wood storage, tools etc and there's a ready-made run for the family dog.

67,000 ltrs of rainwater storage takes care of household needs while and a big dam with good catchment and a pump takes care of the gardens.

Do you family a favour and bring them out for look this weekend they won't want to leave.
