Aotearoa- Land of the Long White Cloud

Words are not really enough to describe this home of stunning timeless design set amongst a 70 year old garden of established trees only 10 kilometres from Gloucester.

The galley style kitchen overlooks the large dining/ family room where everyone gathers together around the combustion fireplace in winter. This is the hub of the home and leads onto the wrap around verandahs and covered entertaining deck.

The formal lounge overlooking the garden functions as a music room/ library. There are four large bedrooms with built ins, three bathrooms, an office, a computer room, a dark room for photography or wine storage and a large screened garden room.

There is R/C air conditioning, gas heater outlets, ducted vacuum, a slow combustion Everhot fuel stove with it’s own hot water tank as well as a modern range. An automatic drip system waters the abundant ferns and greenery around the home.

There is covered access from the carport, so there is never a worry about the weather. There are several sheds (18 x 6) for tractors, fodder, and a machinery workshop with concrete floor and 30 AMP power situated in close proximity to the homestead, as well as a 16 x 10 meter garage/ workshop. Three rain water tanks with a holding capacity of 60,000 litres make sure you never have to worry.

The property is approximately 29 hectares and is an accredited Forestry plantation, part of a joint venture with State Forests of New South Wales with a guaranteed 55% harvest rights. There are four paddocks with good fencing, cattle troughs, and all are well watered with creeks, and a magnificent 14 megalitre spring fed dam that is a one of a kind treasure.

This property is a green, productive, self sufficient oasis.
