RESIDENCE:
Classic Australian Colonial in appearance with modern luxury appointments. The impressive look of the home is created by the almost 2 metre wide, fully lined, return verandah that surrounds the home. Red brick quoins and earthy textured brickwork are the ideal look for a 10 acre property. The tiled entrance foyer opens to the large living area of the home. Here a dining section is positioned to provide either formal entertaining or be part of the day to day living. Top grade timber look flooring was chosen here and is also fitted to the bedrooms. A step down to the family area creates a ceiling height of 9ft. The slow combustion heater with slate surround and timber mantle, is built in the wall space while a split system unit provides instant comfort all year round. The northerly aspect of this section, plus windows that reach the floor, all enhance the outlook over the property. Incorporated in this section is the modern kitchen with its built in stainless steel gas cooktop, underbench oven, dishwasher and island work bench. This brightly tiled, very well appointed area, oversees the living and entertaining activities. What a beautiful way to greet any day, waking up to the views from the master bedroom. It is a true master suite having a walk in robe and its own luxury bathroom with stylish floor to ceiling tiling, a deep corner spa bath for two and a semi-frameless shower, all part of its quite recent upgrade. The main bathroom follows similar themes and services all other bedrooms, which are fitted with ceiling fans and built in robes that include drawers, shelves and hanging space. The separate toilet and laundry facilities are as expected in such a home. A 4.1kw solar system ensures quality living can also be efficient.

IMPROVEMENTS:
Need a shed? Not sure I have seen one better. The property is called Woolshed Springs, and was originally part of a much bigger operation. The shearing shed is a superb 100ft x 30ft structure that is full of character. Many a barn dance has been had here. Why not invite all your friends and family and have another? Sliding doors with high clearance at the front provide easy access. The floor combines thick timber beams, concrete and bitumen at first until it steps up to the timber grates of the animal pens and wool grading areas. Enormous timber posts support the structure, which also has an internally accessed addition for storage of garden implements. Connected to the homestead is a gabled roof pergola with paving underfoot and colourful Ganzin glory vine overhead. The perfect location from which to admire the surrounds. The pool is an inground concrete pool which has solar heating and is salt chlorinated. The paving work and gardens in this fully fenced enclosure are delightful and will provide years of summer fun. A series of rainwater tanks provides 16,000 gallons of storage collected from the enormous roof space. The gardens are irrigated via direct feed from a pump at the dam. Cattle/sheep yards and ramp are located near the rear of the huge shed along with sundry sheds used for wood storage.

SUMMARY:
Simply a beautiful lifestyle property.
