A brick path meanders under an arbour and through the cottage garden to the front door of this 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 2-storey family home. A wide, welcoming entrance hall opens to a central living room, French doors lead through to a family / theatre room fitted with a projector and big screen. Exposed beams and a slow combustion fire amplify the comforting embrace of this room.

The kitchen is all country charm. Wooden cabinets and dado, a walk-in pantry, wall oven, dishwasher and 4-burner gas hob are arranged to make for easy meal prep. The wrap-around bench includes a practical, family-friendly breakfast bar. An inviting dining nook and polished timber floors complete the delightful kitchen.

A large family bathroom and walk through laundry on the ground floor provide plenty of space for cleaning up after a day of work and adventures. The laundry leads to a private sitting area tucked at the side of the home.

Upstairs the feeling is that of being in a treehouse. A central loungeroom with R/C A/C and a large window to the north, is a wonderfully bright living room, away from the activity downstairs, this pitched-ceiling space is perfect for crafting or use as a fantastic kids activity area.

Radiating from the upstairs living area are three bedrooms. The master suite features a walk-through wardrobe leading to an ensuite with shower and vanity. Each junior bedrooms are double-size and have fitted wardrobes, ceiling fans and dormer windows offering tree-top views. A fourth double-size bedroom is set adjacent the bathroom on the ground floor.

Hidden from the road and not a neighbour in sight, a circular drive way leads to a pretty central rose garden and massive workshed with 3-phase power. The property has the feeling of secluded rural location yet sits in a friendly neighbourhood and within easy reach of schools, reserves and the amenities of town.

Laid out before you, on this private, 5-acre property are the ingredients for a big-hearted, family-centred life, days filled with enjoying the pool, tending the garden, picking fruit and collecting eggs await. And when its time to relax, you can do so in style with a massive, multi-zoned, alfresco entertaining area: with both covered and uncovered areas and a full outdoor kitchen pizza oven, fridges, gas hob and oven chances are this spectacular space will become your go-to spot.

If you dream of perusing a greener lifestyle, with room for everyone and all of their activities in a place that feels like home the second you enter the gate, this expansive property will see that dream realised. Chickens, an orchard, veggie gardens and yabbies in the pond complete the setting and provide the basis for a life filled with friends, family and fun for years to come.
