A wonderful opportunity delivering the country life you have longed for has arrived. This high quality estate is the epitome of country living set in a tranquil bushland setting. The large residence is a practical family home with the ability to transform into entertainment heaven that will have friends and family in awe.
Your first step through the lead light double entry greets you with formality. Warm your guests in front of the cosy open fire place in the formal lounge or rev up the evening with a movie thriller in the smart wired home theatre room.
The formal dining room separated by a short hallway is only a few steps from the elegant kitchen but conveniently close to the wine rack recess. Extensive Sydney Blue Gum flooring leading from the formal living space continues through to the main living area, kitchen, meals and sunken conservatory.
The fabulous country kitchen is a show-stopper featuring the top quality Belling cooker, range hood, granite bench tops, servery to the verandah, ample storage including large sets of drawers and a huge fridge recess.
Parents, you can relax in your own quarter of the residence in the oversized master bedroom with separate ???his??? and ???hers??? walk in robes and an ensuite befitting in a country manor. Rich timber French doors will give you access to the outdoors and you may even wake from your slumber to a kangaroo or two passing by. There is a handy second front entrance to this section of the residence providing direct access to the home office if required.
At the opposite end of the residence, the remaining bedrooms can be found - both with built in robes and a very generous activity room separating the two. The bathroom continues the theme of classic country appeal with the vanity featuring dark granite tops sitting on fine Jarrah cabinets.
As strange as it sounds, the large laundry may become a room you want to be in. Close access to two walk in linen rooms, the second separate toilet and flat bench space as well as overhead cupboards.
The feeling from inside looking out could be best compared to contemplating a classic painting of Australian bush with shrubs and trees gently flowing to the valley below set in the foreground of emerald blue sky.
The perfectly positioned Gazebo features a top quality wood fired pizza oven, kitchenette complete with granite bench top, bar fridge and mood lighting. Smart wiring extends from the home theatre room giving access to cable TV and music.
The deck extends from under the roof to a fire pit for the chilly winter evenings. The hardy, yet very attractive garden, blends perfectly in with the bush setting, attracting varieties of bird life including Blue Wrens, Robin Red Breasts and the occasional kangaroo.
For the shed dweller, the property includes a quality 5m x 9m (approx) Colorbond workshop with lockup lean-to, power and mezzanine floor. Sure to keep you tinkering on the weekends.
Scheme water is not connected like many properties in the hills, but don???t despair. Enjoy the distinctive crisp taste of rain water with the two water tanks catching a combined capacity of up to 378kl (approx). No drop is wasted with collection from all roofs on the property.
This quality residence is completely finished with many more features. Inspection is a must.
