With a double brick home and 5.03 ha (approximately 12.5 acres) of land for keeping horses, running sheep and raising chooks, this substantial property is a perfect introduction to hobby farming.
It’s a picturesque holding, zoned General Agriculture, near the end of a no-through-road with established infrastructure and all the advantages of being only 12 minutes’ drive from town.
The home, near the front of the block, is a double brick building with a fabulous outlook over the land.
It occupies a beautiful enclave of lush gardens with water-wise natives and deciduous trees, an orchard of apples, pears, stone fruits and citrus, a chook and duck run, a water feature, veggie gardens, and a grassy playground area for the children.
Currently home to horses and a few sheep, the well-drained land slopes gently up to the far boundary and is mostly in good grazing pasture with stands of eucalypts providing shelter.
Ample water supplies are from a 45,000-litre rainwater tank supplying the home and a soak and a bore for irrigation and stock water.
Built around 1961, the solid home is a comfy family retreat. At its heart is a generous lounge with a wood fire and air conditioning, while the adjacent kitchen overlooking the estate has a dishwasher, gas cooking and wall oven, and a good-sized dining area.
Of the four double bedrooms, one boasts an en suite shower room and built-in robe and another has robes and a ceiling fan. Both a bath and walk-in shower are in the main bathroom.
Next to the house is a freestanding, Colorbond shed with lighting and storage, and a double-width, high-clearance port at the front for a caravan or boat. At the side is a tack room or workshop with power and lighting.
With scope for a diversity of horticulture ventures and space for building more sheds, stables and garages, this is a versatile, attractive country estate offering a highly desirable combination of a tranquil life on the land and easy access to the city, beaches and fishing spots.
