“And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended, and at night the wond’rous glory of the everlasting stars”
To experience the beauty of the Australian bush, witness the star-studded nights, and to be so close to town rarely presents itself as complete as this offering.
This property delivers so much more than a place to live, it offers lifestyle, a chance to escape the rat race of the city and live the dream not readily available to most people.
The bull nosed return veranda, freestone homestead, which has 4 double sized bedrooms and a large living area, has maintained its beauty and charm whilst nestled among the native wattles and olive grove. Its condition belies its age, with the ambience from yesteryear abundantly apparent from first glimpse. Enjoying a 60-acre backyard and steeped in local history, it has encompassed the romance of the past with the comfort of the present, with modern living features including split system air-conditioning, fan forced slow combustion heating along with a romantic kitchen and separate dining, recently upgraded slate floored bathroom, and hosting up to 4 separate open fire facilities.
The vendor has been fastidious to ensure the property headlines its original character with the older original parcel of the homestead boasting jarrah finished ceilings, doors and window trimmings embracing magnificently with the jarrah flooring prevalent in the newer part of the home. The conveniently placed pool and a glass of wine is all that is needed to soak off the ‹¨«??foetid air and grit of the dusty, dirty city‹¨«??.
Additional to this is a well maintained, four roomed ‹¨«??shearing‹¨«?? quarters, an outside laundry with original bake house oven still in working order, along with numerous livestock stalling and shedding. The boundary fencing has been enhanced with electric wiring suitable for cattle. The original bullock cart track to Adelaide runs through the property and local schools have revegetated the land. Mains water, along with suitable rainwater storage provides the farm more than adequately.
Excellent designed and kept dog and cat facilities are established on the property and a current license for the boarding of 40 dogs and 20 cats already exist.
This is a must inspect! Part of Australian history and a part of Australian beauty.
