Versatile options on this PRIME LAND HOLDING: create your own stunning one-acre country estate or astutely explore the options of future SUB-DIVISION, enjoying the lifestyle and further prosperity
YOU'RE INVITED TO BRING THE DREAM TO LIFE ...
Following their arrival from the UK, our owners fell instantly in love with the European trees which abound this massive one acre allotment. The magic drawcard of the English Chestnut, the majestic Oak, framed with Maple & Elm trees, made this allotment feel 'like home'. With the nature walks also on offer from the abutting Woorabinda Reserve, they knew this was the perfect spot to build their new family home.
While living modestly in the existing 50's dwelling, they set to work in transforming the surrounds while patiently waiting for the final architectural plans for a TWO-STOREY EXTENSION, with triple garage and detached studio (future Air B'nb) to be approved. The new plans would offer a striking residence with sweeping upper return verandah, with generous accommodation of 4 bedrooms, study, two massive living areas plus a fully self-contained studio/flat. Excitingly, the official stamp of approval for these plans has now been received.
HOWEVER ….life happens when you're planning something else, and due to evolving career demands, a cross-continent lifestyle lies ahead. They are now facing a dilemma and are in two minds whether to simply sell and have a fresh start OR retain the property and shelve their dream plans for another day when they permanently return sometime in the years ahead.
Rather than make an immediate decision, they have decided to release the property to the market for sale and then gauge what offers come forward. THEY WILL CONSIDER ALL SERIOUS OFFERS.
Please submit your BEST OFFER by TUESDAY 17th MAY at 1:00 pm! Early offers are welcome!
AN IMPORTANT OPTION: This property indeed offers some versatility for the new owner as due to the allotment's massive size, there could also be an opportunity for the new owner to follow the steps of neighbouring property/s and explore subdivision options through the Planning SA authority. A half-acre street frontage position could be retained for their own dream residence and the profit from future sale of rear land could fund the construction of their new build. We encourage buyers who have this interest to make their own enquiries.
EXISTING RESIDENCE
The cosy and comfortable 2-3 bedroom 1950'S residence is presented honestly and in its original condition. It is of a solid sandstone construction and was the base for their future dream home. Offering 2-3 generous bedrooms, study/dining, and pleasant country kitchen, the home presents future rental options as the new buyer contemplates their direction.
SOME OF THE IMPROVEMENTS TO PROPERTY SO FAR
Attractive country white-railed fencing fully surrounds the entire perimeter of the acre, with private gate access to the Woorabinda Reserve.
