Last Listing description (May 2019)
6.42ha (16 acres) . Serene property in semi secluded location. The beautiful waterways highlight this scenic property which features a 1994 built, up to 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom home. Plentiful shedding, fruit trees and more and all just minutes from suburbia.
LAND: 6.42ha (16 acres). As the automated gate slides back and you travel along the paved driveway, passing the small waterfall and the 2 small dams on the left that are home to the ducks, with the mature willows to the right, it is hard to fathom that 16 scenic and tranquil acres can be so close to suburbia.
The propertys most desirable attribute is, however, the abundance of water which not only provides water for the property, it is a stunning natural landscape feature. The land is a great place to explore with scattered gums providing firewood within a natural setting whilst deciduous trees nearer to the home surrounds include varieties of ash trees and help shape the landscaping. The section of land between the home and the water course has just had a new lawn planted and will be appreciated as a place to play and admire. An area in front of the sheds is paved and provides space for many vehicles.
A climb to the top of the hill will reveal a panoramic view of the suburbs and sea. For those with animal interests the property has run a few sheep, has a shelter and a chook yard. Collect your own eggs, pick your own fruits and grow your own vegetables with a netted domestic fruit garden and nearby vegetable garden and hot house. The property is connected to mains water and has a bore with 3 phase power. Having 3 phase power connected is a very valuable benefit.
RESIDENCE: This much loved home, that was built in 1994, offers a design of versatility and practicality, whilst being positioned to take in the beautiful vista over the propertys significant and picturesque water courses. Inside, the impressively upgraded kitchen features a double drawer dishwasher, built-in appliances, a breakfast bar and a brilliant array of cupboards with soft closing drawers and so much more. This open space includes a meals area and overlooks a living area with timber look floor, wall mounted television and a large wood burner set on a slate base. This bright, freshly painted section of the home has access to the enclosed front verandah and second living area. Take the stairs down to the underground cellar where built-in shelving will store your favourite wines or preservatives that can be from the propertys own fruit trees. The main bedroom is a very good size, emphasised by the full height and width built-in mirrored robe. It has a wall mounted heater, ceiling fan and direct entry to the 2 way, full size ensuite bathroom. The configuration of the home would comfortably facilitate 3 bedrooms. Alternatively, the room with independent external access is a great office / consulting room and with a study, utility room, huge laundry and second bathroom with corner spa, all providing the attractive and alternate living options. Much of the time, however, will be enjoyed on the semi-enclosed verandahs which are on 3 sides of the home. Being tiled, they provide living space all year round and with those lovely views on offer. Attached to the front verandah is a full width, wide pergola with shade shelter. The property has a 27 panel, 8kw solar power unit. With this benefit, along with the fruits, vegetables, eggs from the chook house and a few sheep if you choose and all the water, you can be virtually self-sufficient.
IMPROVEMENTS: Want a shed with 3 phase power, concrete floor, mezzanine storage? Then the 5 bay (all with roller doors) 50 x 20 structure will suit. In addition there are 2 more bays for undercover vehicle parking. Other sundry shedding includes an open small implement shed and G.I. wood shed.
