Peace, privacy and a picturesque outlook await the new owners of this beautifully renovated country homestead, located in a prime position in King William Estate, Clarence Town.
Situated at the front of this boutique new community-orientated development, the property ticks all the boxes for someone searching for their tree-change retreat, with almost two acres of prime rural lifestyle land presenting plenty of opportunities.
Use the land to set up your own sustainable hobby farm, with an existing chicken coop and flourishing fruit trees providing a handy head start, and plenty of room to section off paddocks for a small flock of sheep, goats or even a few head of cattle.
Horse owners will also love the clean, level acres just waiting to be split up into horse paddocks, with space to create a dressage arena and stables.
The land has been cleared to shade trees and offers a range of existing agricultural infrastructure, including a mix of post and rail and post and wire boundary fencing, a large four-bay machinery shed and a single open bay storage shed, while a large inground saltwater pool is an added bonus for families with kids.
Set back from the front entrance for added privacy, the home itself has the external appeal of a traditional country homestead with wide wraparound verandahs offering plenty of spaces to sit and enjoy the picturesque rural landscape.
But step inside the solid timber entry door and you’ll find all the hard work has already been done to update the 35-year-old home’s spacious interior, with a mix of country chic and contemporary finishes creating a fresh, modern style that is both warm and welcoming.
An abundance of large windows and glass sliding doors ensures the home is flooded with natural light throughout, while a pleasing neutral colour scheme, freshly painted walls and new flooring make every room feel bright and spacious.
Crisp, white cabinetry in the kitchen provides a lovely contemporary contrast to the darker laminate benchtop and kickboards, while the eye-catching slow combustion wood stove offers a traditional country counterpoint.
A second slow combustion wood fire in a brick and tiled hearth adds a warm, homeliness to one of the home’s two expansive living rooms, which provide plenty of space for large families to relax or entertain.
Sliding glass doors offer direct access to the verandah from both living areas, while also providing picturesque views of the surrounding landscape, while the kitchen and dining room conveniently overlook the swimming pool.
The home has a practical, family-friendly layout, with the living areas all grouped together in one wing of the house away from the four bedrooms, family bathroom and laundry.
The bedrooms are all generously-proportioned and include built-in wardrobes, with the master suite featuring a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite.
The family bathroom has also undergone a fantastic facelift to give it a fresh, modern feel, and features a luxuriously expansive vanity with a sleek, stone benchtop, two stylish oval, above counter basins and an oversized mirror with Hollywood lighting.
Perfectly positioned at the front of the eight-lot King William Estate, this property offers all the advantages of a tranquil country lifestyle, with the conveniences of large urban centres including Raymond Terrace and Maitland less than 30 minutes away.
The nearby Williams River offers an abundant range of recreational opportunities for those who like to spend their spare time on the water, while the heavily forested Wallaroo National Park is a popular location for four-wheel driving, mountain biking, horse riding and hiking.
Clarence Town itself has everything families need, from a quality public primary school and medical centre to a supermarket, shops and cafes, while a swimming pool, parks and sporting facilities are all on offer locally and in the surrounding rural villages.
