WOW! What a surprise package this tightly-held property is - a character-filled residence completely tucked away from the road down a long tree-lined driveway on over a hectare, in the heart of town, with expansive parklike grounds leading to a delightful dam with jetty, and a rainforest backdrop, along with spring fed creeks around an island, timber bridges, and a self-contained powered double bay shed. Welcome to "The Ponderosa."
The home itself comprises three bedrooms, two heritage-style bathrooms, central country-style kitchen, formal lounge, separate dining, sunroom with fireplace, wraparound north-east facing bullnose verandah, and separate laundry.
Hardwood timber floors, high ceilings with decorative cornices and ceiling roses, double hung windows, VJ walls, lead-lighting, ceiling fans, security screen doors, roll down blinds on verandah - are some of the home's features; and it is very much a home with a big heart and wonderful warmth.
An 8.4x5.8m barn with solar panels, workshop, bathroom and kitchenette is adjacent to the home and can be used for multiple purposes; and there is abundant onsite parking for visitors, boat, caravan etc. A former aviary has been converted to a charming 'Pirates Tavern' with power, lights, a bar, and fly screens - this has a rustic vibe which is instantly endearing, there has been many magical moments enjoyed in, and many more to come.
The grounds themselves are like a secret oasis - lush and fertile with an abundance of water, including a dam with eels, turtles, geese and ducks (fish could also be introduced); this is a stunning centrepiece of the property showcased from the verandah and a resplendent spot for picnics, family gatherings, and would make a gorgeous backdrop for weddings that have been held here in the past. The main bridge also has access underneath via a ladder and is perfect for a mechanic or similar to work on a vehicle. What about a game of mini-golf, ptanque, cricket, or croquet...let the good times roll!
This unique property was even featured on an ABC television program in 2007 called "Ten Pound Poms" where the current owner was featured; some of you may recall it from there, otherwise it's unlikely to be on anyone's radar it is so private and tucked away.
All this acreage splendour can be yours to savour within walking distance or just a few minutes' drive to all town amenities including hospitals, rail, supermarkets, dining, and schools; and 25 minutes to coast beaches.
Acreage so close to town is rarer than a unicorn - yet here it is, we've found it! If any of these triggers your curiosity and you are in the market to buy, we urge you to come along and inspect this truly special property, there is absolutely nothing like this on the market.
