Hidden away down a charming little side road, this wonderful 82 acre property offers an opportunity to live on your own productive rural property and still be able to drive to town in under 20 minutes. The home is set well back from the road near the southern boundary of the block where it has been built on a gentle north facing slope and from where it enjoys views over much of the property. The home itself is a good sized three bedroom timber and iron Bovell home, featuring large verandas back and front - just the thing for relaxing on summer evenings. Upon entering the home visitors are often surprised at the spacious feel of the home, particularly the kitchen, dining, lounge and games room where there is currently a pool table set up. The main bedroom has reverse cycle air conditioning and features a romantic entry and plenty of space for a large bedroom suite. Second and third bedrooms are smaller and for convenience both open into the common area adjacent to the bathroom. The laundry is incorporated into the main bathroom and there is a separate toilet room with hand basin and environmentally friendly composting toilet system. The home is elevated on high stumps and the front veranda has been fenced for comfort and safety. While mains electricity is connected, the property harvests its own rainwater which is then stored in an array of large tanks to provide a reliable source of water throughout the summer months.There are two carports for three cars close to the house and a large lockup workshop shed with concrete floor. Lean to's and extra roofed areas create shade for shed walls and provide further shaded work areas. Two, three bay machinery sheds have been built and both have earthen floors suitable for storing farm machinery and the like. There are numerous bird and animal enclosures, yards and extensive fencing to keep livestock out of the main house yard which features beautiful colourful gardens and carefully mown grass. Larger shrubs and trees make this a relaxing place to enjoy all year round. Not far from the house there is a significant orchard, with bird netting and healthy fruit trees. There is a pump at the dam from where water is pumped to keep the trees watered.The remainder of the property could be farmed or just simply enjoyed for its views and character. Imagine going for your morning walk up and down hills, along rocky outcrops, through trees and along the dam wall, all without leaving your own property.
