“Chalet Kersbrook” – Heaven on 12 Acres
A delightful rural property that has everything you could wish for – and so much more!! With direct access to the Tom Roberts Quilty Riding Trail this property is ideally located for the horse enthusiast with existing horse use. This property is environmentally friendly and energy efficient in so many ways. The home was architecturally designed and built to the current owners specifications. The home is sited facing north to maximize natural light and the cement slab acts as a heat bank in winter plus the windows have been specifically located for natural ventilation on warm summer evenings and the views are simply spectacular. The home itself is located well back from the road which means no dust or car noise and the home features 3 or 4 bedrooms depending on your requirements, 2 bathrooms, large family room, separate dining, slate floors in the high traffic areas and carpet in some bedrooms for maximum comfort. Solar panels serve the hot water tank in the summer and in the winter the Bosky wood stove does the same job whilst also heating radiators located throughout the house.
Floor to ceiling sliding doors allow access to the beautiful gardens from almost every room. Zoned, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning services the home as well so every comfort has been considered. Adjacent the kitchen is a Butler’s Pantry, which is in effect is a smaller kitchen within the kitchen, so very convenient. The Bosky wood burning stove is supplemented by an electric cooktop and separate electric oven for use when the warmer weather makes the wood stove unpractical.
The home gardens are thoughtfully laid out with interesting pathways around every corner leading you from one garden “room” to another. So quaint and quirky! The almost 12 acres is laid out in 6 fenced paddocks. Around the property the shedding is excellent with a 40x30ft shed with 3 phase power, lights and large access doors, a wood shed, a chook/duck shed, even an old outside “dunny”. There is ample wood on the property to provide for the combustion stove and of course there are no water bills because there is 35,000 gallons of rainwater storage to the home. There is also a dam on the property which is linked into the fire protection sprinkler system around the house and the garden. Excellent quality soil means great quality vegies from the vegie plot and fruit trees in abundance including mulberry, white & brown figs, apricots, apples, pear, nectarine, peach, lemon. orange, tangello, mandarin, avocado, kiwi fruit, chestnut, walnut, pistachio, almond, 2 types of grapevines, several different types of berries and lots more.
A very desirable property only 5 minutes from Kersbrook and 30 minutes to the suburbs. Come along and see this one – you won’t be disappointed, it ticks all the boxes.
