Oaks Estate ACT 2620

The impressive open kitchen, dining, living area, flows to the timber wrap around veranda, relaxed outdoor dining. Equal peaceful cocoon and entertaining hub, warmed by a slow combustion fire, it is ideal for quiet lunches, large parties, family communion or simply curling on the couch taking in the lush garden views. With generous timber countertops, large deluxe Belling dual fuel range cooker and ample storage, the kitchen nods to the home's rural heritage while extending a sleek modern utility.

Slate paths wind through established trees, opening to various nooks for social gathering. Awash with colour and texture, shelter and shade, soothing birdsong, this is a magic place with a deep sense of peace. Chook yards, vegetable beds, potting shed lend a working edge and there is plenty of space for the kids to play.

Sandstone steps lead to a garden studio and courtyard, bordered by stone garden walls, sheltered by lush plantings, fragrant white roses. Fully equipped with kitchenette, bathroom and with direct access from the street this flexible space is perfect for home office, teen retreat, multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

Oaks Estate has unique historical interest combined with sweeping views across rivers to surrounding mountains. The street culminates in direct river access, connecting to the beautiful Oaks Estate River Corridor Heritage Walk. Close to the rail station, park, children's playground, the home is also just minutes from the Queanbeyan township. The local caf One TwentyNine is around the corner and Cellars bottle shop is close to hand. It is a mere 8 minutes' drive to the airport and 17 minutes to the CBD.
