Tucked privately within its own landscape on approximately 7.4 acres, this three-bedroom, with the flexible option for a fourth, two-living-area homestead is an offering that balances soulful country character with the comforts of considered, modern living. Views of the surrounding countryside frame every outlook, while the property itself feels entirely its own world: unhurried, established, and quietly beautiful.
Warm timber floorboards run through the main living spaces, anchoring a home that feels genuinely lived in and loved. The heart of the home is the main living room, where a solid wood heater and split system create year-round comfort. An external door opens to a south-facing deck, a perfect perch for morning coffee as the paddocks come to life. An adjoining dining room flows seamlessly to the kitchen and out to an alfresco deck overlooking the landscape. The contemporary kitchen is equipped with a freestanding 900mm gas cooktop and oven, along with ample storage. A second living space opens through double glass doors to a north-facing patio, bathed in natural light, with a split system ensuring comfort in every season. Separated by a barn-style sliding door, a dedicated office, equally suited as a fourth bedroom or guest room, sits quietly to the side, timber-clad and serviced by its own split system, offering flexibility to suit how you live.
The main bedroom features built-in robes and a split system, while the two additional bedrooms are also equipped with split systems. The updated bathroom presents a bath, shower, and vanity with a separate toilet, thoughtfully appointed for family life. A large laundry with external access to the north-facing patio completes the practical side of things beautifully.
The north-facing back garden features standard roses, clipped box hedging, ornamental plantings, and established fruit trees, a garden of genuine character and seasonal reward. Birdsong is a constant companion. External blinds, solar hot water, two rainwater tanks servicing the house and two spare tanks that can be pumped to the tank servicing the house, and a dedicated garden tank speak to a property designed for easy, sustainable living.
Two dams, fenced paddocks currently running sheep and suitable for horses, a garage with power, and a wood shed complete a property that works as beautifully as it looks.
