You don’t have to compromise on security, comfort and space when you make the move to the country lifestyle you dream of.

At this beautifully presented hobby farm of 2.84ha, you have all these in a well-designed residence plus an amazing shed big enough for parking two trucks – or up to eight cars.

Just off the South Coast Highway about 20km west of Albany, the rural zoned property consists of a house block with the home and shed, and a grassy paddock ideal for grazing cattle, sheep or horses.

With good, well-drained soils, reliable rainfall and abundant water, the land would also be suited to numerous production horticulture ventures. It is all cleared except for a belt of tall timbers for shelter along the road boundary, and fenced with Ringlock and barb.

If more land were needed for a bigger enterprise, the adjoining 6.76ha vacant block is also offered for sale as a separate parcel.

Surrounded by lush, reticulated gardens and neatly trimmed lawns with rose beds at the front, the home is at one end of the massive Zincalume shed. This two-storey accommodation is versatile, well appointed and tastefully finished with timber features.

For comfort and peace of mind, thoughtful extras such as full wall and ceiling insulation, fire protection, a security system, emergency lighting and data cabling are installed.

On the ground floor is the generous air-conditioned, open-plan living space of a lounge, dining area and country kitchen with timber cabinetry and a chef’s stove.

A timber staircase leads up to the huge main bedroom, and there’s a big second bedroom or games room downstairs, near the integrated bathroom and laundry, complete with a big bath, shower and toilet.

The shed has a clear-span space with two 5.5m clearance doors and an extra-thick concrete floor for heavy trucks, as well as fire and security alarms.

Water is abundant for the garden and the house from two rainwater tanks and a soak, and there’s an excellent chook run and a cattle race with a crush.

A terrific sheltered, paved patio, an aviary and a shade house with potting benches and a sink complete the picture.

For fishing, swimming and boating, the coast at Torbay is a short drive away.

People who yearn for a country lifestyle or have big vehicles to accommodate within easy reach of the city should take a close look at this outstanding property.
