Inspect with a note pad and ready list of tradesman. This is the ultimate "renovators delight". The hard work truly has been done; all you have to do is add the finishing touches.
When I first inspected this grand house my son was with me, off school with a tooth ache, he remarked: "Papa this is like the Whitehouse". The grandeur of this house is fit for a President or indeed a Royal Family.
The thoughtfulness of the floor plan layout is brilliant. Necessary rooms like kitchen’s roll into perfect entertaining nooks and huge formal rooms.
This house has 6 very large bedrooms all with high ceilings these are complemented by 2 large ensuites that are bigger than most bathrooms. Further water closets in the house facilitate ideal entertaining rooms just adjacent to movie rooms etc. There is a carriage room, day spa wing and various utility rooms in all the right places, for easy service but not obtuse.
The grounds are fenced and padlocked allowing for easy care of horses and or prized animals for husbandry or stud. A separate shed with a matching facade houses anything from tractors to horses. An adjoining paddock would be the perfect foundation for an organic market garden or something akin to a cottage industry could also be set up here. The ultimate status symbol is the caretaker’s cottage perfect for the hired help or even a potential cash earner for private letting. One idea was to use this cottage as a "cellar door" for exclusive & unique pottery sales to Sydney-siders on weekend getaways. The potential for the finished masterpiece is limited only by your budget!
Perhaps one of the property’s truly unique assets is the precious life giving springs that are scattered around the estate. One is capped and excess of requirements can easily be diverted to a limestone floored, bricked in dam reservoir. The capacity of which is best described as sufficient for any need you may have in mind. The other is diverted to horse troughs and used for watering. While a spring fed creek meanders through the property providing an excellent attraction to wild life. During early winter morning’s deer have been seen sipping the fresh waters of this creek between clouds of mist.
The vendor’s have landed an incredible opportunity in the land of the long white cloud (N.Z.). These colourful entrepreneurs are no strangers to adventure and calculated risk taking. You can be a part of their story by becoming the new lord of the manor.
