The location of this four bedroom, north facing modern home is perfect! Close enough to the highway to enable an easy 25 min drive into Canberra City or a convenient hop, skip and jump to the coast or of course Sydney – yet strategically positioned on the block to make the most of the quiet countryside and the gorgeous, expansive views. This property offers 2.2Ha (5.6 acres) and the home’s location provides a private sanctuary without the overhead of a larger acreage.
No expense has been spared with Italian pendants highlighting the 9′ high ceilings, the elegantly stylish curtains and roman blinds, underfloor heating throughout the tiled areas and the magnificently planned bathroom – just bring the wine and cheese while you bathe in the incredibly deep bath that is beautifully incorporated into the bathroom’s bay window! The bathroom has plenty of storage with the hung vanity and triple mirrored door shelving and is topped off with the luxury of high quality tap and shower fittings. The bathroom includes a toilet and more good news, there’s a separate water closet in the living area end of the home as well. This home comes with a solar powered hot water system, and in winter this solar passive designed home can sometimes require the owners to open the windows! But for those cooler evenings the under tile heating provides that extra warmth and the specially designed open fire place provides the warmth and ambience that all country homes strive for! With extensive use of large paned windows.
The Caesar stone benchtops are just the start of this tastefully designed kitchen that will be enjoyed by the most serious of cooks, especially the width of the impressive Bosch oven. From the kitchen window you can look out into the fully fenced off expansive garden area that has been topsoiled and had lawn sewn, and incorporates a children’s playground with soft fall bark chips.
Gardening and landscaping is a passion for these owners, yet they had only just started, so while serious infrastructure and landscaping has already begun; there is still time to make your own individual mark! Thousands of dollars worth of rock boulders are waiting your direction. The driveway is lined with London Plane Trees, the Southern aspect is lined with Manchurian Pear Trees, the Eastern side by lilacs and Western side by westringia shrubs and various other plantings and all of these have been established with an impressive watering system. The entire property is framed by taps every 20-30 metres which is irrigated through the extremely deep, de-silted dam and the 110,000 litre in ground concrete tank to back up the dam. There is already a firepump stationed at the dam, a new heavy duty electric pump at the concrete tank and this is strong enough to irrigate the entire property. There are drip systems as well and recently incorporated dam and concrete tank fed water taps up at the main house’s gardens. All of the hard work has been done with this infrastructure, it’s time for you to do the fun things now! And to support your green thumb, there’s a 3m x 3m garden shed (with verandah) down near the three bay compost heap area.
