Charming Period Home on 6 Acre Slice of Heaven

Live the dream in a beautiful, secret pocket of Gapsted.
With stunning views to the Stanley Range and surrounded by idyllic walnut and grazing properties, this much-loved, circa late-19th century home and small acreage offers a perfect opportunity for treechangers, nature-lovers, gardeners and anyone else yearning for all the good things a country lifestyle can offer.
One of just a handful of tightly-held properties near the end of a quiet country lane, 217 Schlapps Road has been updated and refurbished into a comfortable all-seasons sanctuary, while retaining the home's essential period character.
All the rooms are spacious and airy with soaring 3.3m ceilings, including pressed metal, original lining boards and polished Murray pine and Blackbutt hardwood floors. Outdoors, there are extensive, deep verandahs for entertaining, watching the nightly sunset lightshow or just sitting quietly and enjoying the abundant birdlife.
Recent updates include a craftsman-built kitchen equipped with granite benchtops and European appliances. There are built-in robes and insulating honeycomb blinds have been installed throughout. The home has recently been extensively repainted inside and out.
Hydronic central heating, a wood heater and split-systems in three rooms keep the home cosy during winter (and cool in summer). There are overhead fans and quality wool carpets.
The flexible floorplan is currently configured as 3br, kitchen-dining, separate loungeroom and separate home office with its own heating/cooling, but the home could readily accommodate up to 5 bedrooms.
Surrounding the house is a mature, magical garden full of birds, butterflies, native plants, flowering shrubs, many perfumed roses and walnut and fruit trees providing shade in summer and year-round habitat for the 100-odd bird species that live here or visit seasonally. They include yellow-tailed black cockatoos, Eastern whipbirds, red browed finches, red-capped robins, scrubwrens, kookaburras, magpies, white-winged choughs, thornbills, gerygones and many others.
A fenced kitchen garden planted with flowers for pollinators is ideal for home cooks, producing abundant veggies, berries and herbs for the table, and a small orchard is planted with varieties of citrus, apples, stone fruit and quinces.
There is a practical garage / workshop with power and a pump shed and chook shed and secure enclosure for daily fresh eggs.
