3 Sanctuary Way

Vacy NSW 2421

An established orchard provides a bountiful harvest with a range of fruit and nut trees including citrus, mulberry, fig, macadamia, persimmon, plum and guava, as well as blueberry and strawberry bushes.

Large mostly cleared areas allow the owners to explore a variety of other hobby farm and horticultural opportunities for the 2.5-acre lifestyle block, with the boundary already fully fenced with square wire mesh to keep in the family pets.

The drought-proof property is well watered with 60,000L of rainwater storage, 9,000L of river water storage and a 40,000L per month river water allocation, while a 6kW solar system with 22 panels and a solar hot water system enhances the home's green credentials while making the most of the prevailing sunny climate.

A large three-bay Colorbond American barn provides options for storing your outdoor machinery, tools and two additional vehicles, as well as a caravan, boat or horse float.

The home itself also features an attached double garage, while additional external storage can be found in a wood storage shed, separate garden shed and container storage with attached undercover vegetable garden.

Families will love the opportunity to explore traditional country activities without giving up the luxuries of a designer family home.

Featuring an attractive ranch-style design enhanced by golden bricks and a Colorbond roof, the home has a classic appeal with plenty of traditional elements including a timber front door with glass leadlight panels.

A slow combustion wood-fired heater in the central open plan living room continues the country ambience, creating a warm and cosy space where the whole family can come together to relax, while reverse-cycle air conditioning and ceiling fans provide year-round comfort.

The rich tones of the polished timber floorboards add texture throughout the casual living areas and the adjoining kitchen, while plush grey carpet provides added comfort underfoot in the front lounge room and four bedrooms.

The generously-proportioned bedrooms offer an inviting sanctuary for every member of the family, with a king-sized master suite creating a parents' retreat complete with spacious walk-in wardrobe and stylish ensuite.

Two double linen cupboards in the hallway near the bedrooms offer ample storage solutions, while the large main bathroom and separate toilet provides family-friendly practicality.

The home has been perfectly designed for those who like to entertain, with the four bedrooms at one end of the house for added privacy, while the central living areas flow seamlessly out to the adjoining expansive alfresco area, which overlooks the resort-style inground saltwater pool.

A warm, neutral colour palette, including cream cabinetry in the kitchen, ensures the home feels light, bright and inviting, with its large windows neatly finished off with crisp, white venetian blinds.

Caesarstone benchtops, stainless steel appliances and a large, combined laundry and butler's pantry adds luxury and functionality to the kitchen, while cross vein cut travertine tiles, a pitched roof, ceiling fan and quality external blinds create a sense of sophistication in the alfresco area.

The property is ideally located to combine a country lifestyle with easy access to all the conveniences, with the rural communities of Dungog, and the major urban centres of Maitland and Raymond Terrace less than 30 minutes away, while day-to-day essentials including a general store, local butcher, charming caf and country tavern with a quality bistro are six minutes away in Paterson.
