242 Watsons Rd, Kettering is a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom House and was built in 1990. The property has a land size of 71890m2 and floor size of 120m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in March 2022.
Welcome to 242 Watsons Road Kettering .. a totally unique bushland retreat property with boundless potential.
Almost 18 acres / 7.2 Hectares of serenity. Peaceful, unique, idyllic, wonderful, magnificent soaring gum trees, abundant bird life, outstanding views, loaded with opportunities, . there are simply not enough superlatives to describe this natural wonderland.
At the bottom of the property sit a number of sheds / workshops that once were used for relatively large scale manufacture, and could again be used for whatever purpose you could imagine.
The property has large swathes of natural rain forest and nestled in the midst of this is a simply wonderful log cabin. This double storey Cabin was built in 1979 by the current owners from logs sourced from the property, and for a number of years housed a family of 4. Whilst not currently used as a dwelling it still has power, NBN and water connected, and could quite easily be converted back to a useable dwelling .. think AirBNB, visitor accommodation, artists or writers retreat . What could you imagine using it for?
Following the 1 km long winding, rocky, gravel driveway up the hill (best traversed with a 4WD or AWD) and through the forest you will find some more sheds etc. before arriving almost at the top of the hill, to at a large level clearing where the family home is situated.
This light filled brick veneer home has a separate entry that leads through to the spacious living room with a large bay window taking in the magnificent views and an open fire place to nestle in front of during the cold winter nights. Adjacent is the dining area which leads through to the kitchen / family room which has a large glass sliding door to the rear courtyard.
The home has three good sized bedrooms two with built-ins, separate W.C., Bathroom and laundry which also has direct access to the courtyard / washing line. Whilst not developed there is access to the extra large and high ceiling space, specifically designed for future extension / development.
The house has plenty of water 3 x 9000 litre tanks and 1 x 4500 litre tank.
This is not your standard property .. but if you are looking for a family retreat, seemingly a "million miles away" but still quite close to everything, then this property is for you.
If you love nature, have ideas for a new venture, would love to operate a unique AirBNB from a fabulous Log Cabin, then this property is for you.
If you would love to live in a very comfortable 3 bedroom home near the top of the hill in total serenity with simply fabulous views, then this property is for you.
Come and see it for yourself! You won't be sorry.
