The Verandah
The verandah on this home is so amazing
it deserves its own postcode !

of the interior of the home.
A tall carport has been constructed at the entrance to the verandah to easily park your vehicle and
enter the home undercover,
Days are spent relaxing, dining, entertaining and taking in the breathtaking views over the beautiful gardens.
You can spend your time in shade and comfort from the warm weather and relax during blissful nights spent listening to the evening sounds of wildlife with candles and fairy lights twinkling from one end to another.
The seasons change but this is a verandah for all year round. Watching summer thunderstorms roll in from the west and sitting cosy and dry while rain falls around or snuggling up on a comfy sofa with a heater burning near by.
A very special feature of this amazing spot is the Antique claw foot bath which has hot and cold water running to it, many cold nights spent within the steamy hot bath or
just popping in to cool down on a hot day!
This verandah has entertained many family celebrations from small family dinners to large Christmas parties. There is a side for every season and a cozy spot to gather your thoughts, listen to your favourite tunes, relax or just take in the amazing atmosphere of the beautiful surroundings.
THE GARDENS
The stunning grounds have been lovingly developed, landscaped and cared for over a decade, creating a magnificent, multi-faceted bush environment. In the garden area close to the house is an incredible fire pit with two rows of large rocks and very rustic timber bench seats.
The gardens have been worked in a way that if it was possible to make lush healthy lawn,
rocks were dug from the earth to make garden edging.
This has created incredible places that mould and blend with the natural bush surroundings.
Flanked by an abundance of mature varieties of native flora, the long driveway sweeps around a garden of flowering agapanthas, native grass's and lovely flowering Grevillia's.
The manicured lawns are surrounded by beautiful eucalypts and gum trees, meandering pathways, rock walls and unique personal touches.
Located along the driveway is a 3 bay fully lockable shed with a bush style awning built around which can house 5 vehicles.
Kirkcaldy Farm seems to have its very own eco system which boasts incredible rainfall and is able to grow tropical trees like Frangipani and Hibiscus.
Maintaining the yard is a breeze with a ride on lawn mower, a leaf blower and a rake, its actually a joy to do the yard work!!
The whole house yard is cocooned by the amazing old growth trees and creates a wonderful peaceful and private oasis
THE PROPERTY
Comprising 43.66 Hectares, every fence line and pasture is maintained in pristine condition and at present being utilised as a grazing property.
The grazing paddocks have been cleared of regrowth and scrub but have loads of amazing old growth timber.
Each Paddock has its own dam which are always full.
One paddock featuring a small lake which is quiet deep and stocked with Yabbies.
Over the years the paddocks and fence lines have been kept clear of fallen trees, branches and scrub to maintain minimal bush fire hazard during the hot summer seasons.
The property currently has some very happy and healthy cattle grazing and all paddocks are worked so that the feed is utilised and cattle are moved onto next paddock with fully functioning gates going between all paddocks.
The entire property is able to be driven over with a 4wd with exception of the gully and creek beds.
There is a great walking track that goes from the house down through the gully and into the lower paddocks.
A seasonal creek flows through the property and its a joy to sit on the verandah and listen to the creek flowing around the property after a good rainfall.
There are plenty of spots to have a dip and cool off and many areas that are lovely and shady to sit and
enjoy a good old Aussie picnic.
