Last Listing description (September 2018)
Wandering among the lush, rolling countryside at 11 Reynolds Close, it s not hard to imagine yourself in one of Lucy Maud Montgomery s Anne of Green Gables tales.
Perhaps it s the country homestead with its green pitched roof that s reminiscent of the Avonlea house the redhead calls home.
Or maybe it s the horses whinnying in the paddocks on the five acre property that draws you in or yet still it might be the magnificent farmland views across historic Duninald Farm that takes your fancy.
Whatever it is, it s clear this property is special in both appearance and ambience. It offers a sense of peace and tranquility that cannot be created. It just is.
Located just five minutes from Paterson, this magnificent lifestyle property is ideal for horse lovers with a fully fenced all weather dressage arena, stables with two stalls and one tack room as well as two fenced paddocks.
The property is set in a tightly held estate with similar premium properties and a tree-lined bitumen driveway snakes its way past the quintessential tyre swing dangling from the towering gum tree to the homestead.
David Austen English roses release their scent at the front of the home, which was constructed in 2005, with further additions added to the hardiplank and Colorbond roofed property in later years.
The result is a modern homestead that welcomes you with a return verandah and makes you feel immediately at home with its light-filled living spaces, new kitchen, ensuite and carpets, as well as an extensive outdoor entertaining area including a fenced, semi-inground pool with timber decking.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the open-plan kitchen and dining room which is strikingly contemporary in appearance thanks to its rich, polished floorboards, trio of skylights (including two that are remote opening and rain sensing), reverse cycle air conditioning and Jotul combustion fire.
The kitchen will leave the fussiest of buyers stunned with its magazine-look finishes including Caesarstone and Italian marble benchtops, handmade Spanish tile splashback and eye-catching pendant lights.
There s also a butler s pantry and stainless steel appliances including a Smeg self-cleaning oven and induction stovetop.
There s also a separate lounge and a rumpus room with a two-way, in-wall combustion fireplace linking the two spaces, and providing a focal point as well as lots of warmth in winter.
Each room has sliding doors opening to the side verandah and the rumpus room which also offers new carpet and air conditioning.
Another key feature of this well designed home is the size of the bedrooms, with four king size rooms available including a master suite with a large walk-in robe and a sleek and sophisticated ensuite with a luxurious freestanding bathtub, double timber vanity with stone benchtop and a remote opening skylight with rain sensor to the study nook.
The ensuite also offers a double frameless shower, prestigious Brodware nickel tapware and accessories including in-wall towel heaters, handmade Spanish tiles and luxurious underfloor heating.
The other bedrooms all boast built-in robes and share the central bathroom with its spa bath and floating vanity with dual basins and stone benchtop.
At the opposite end of the home is the large home office or fifth bedroom. You will also find a third bathroom opposite; it s a versatile space that you could use if you work from home, have a teenager or if extended family live with you.
The long list of features at this charming property doesn t end there, with a super large laundry boasting plenty of bench space big enough to store precious saddles too good to be left in a tack room, a double garage with internal access, separate double garage and double chicken coop and run also among the amenities.
The property is well watered with access to the river and all outside taps drawing on that resource in addition to three 22,000L water tanks.
A solar hot water system, split system air conditioning and ceiling fans complete this very attractive rural lifestyle package.
