12 Walgrove Road
Yass NSW

Room to roam.

Some acreage asks for years of work before it feels like home. Not this.

A modern 2018 home sits on 2.27 hectares – about 5.6 acres – of flat, improved pasture in the tightly-held Walgrove estate at Manton, elevated and private, with no overhead powerlines and long views in every direction.

For its next owner it offers the country lifestyle without the compromise – space to spread out, room for a few animals, and an easy commute to Canberra, with the foundations already set.

Welcome home, to 12 Walgrove Road, Manton.

Inside, four bedrooms – the main with walk-in robe, ensuite and a built-in study nook framed by paddock views – open to three living areas, including a media room wired for surround sound, across roughly 227 square metres.

Ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, a gas fireplace, double glazing, woodgrain floors, ceiling fans and Verishade blinds keep every room comfortable through the seasons, while a skylit kitchen with a stone island, walk-in pantry and quality Westinghouse appliances opens straight to living and, through stacker doors, to the undercover alfresco – made for easy entertaining.

And at day’s end, a freestanding bath sits framed by a picture window that turns the paddocks and evening sky into the view.

Outside, the hard work is behind you. Established gardens, a pear-lined driveway, retaining walls, a children’s playground, a rope swing under an old gum and irrigation are already in – the picture perfect, move in-ready lifestyle home.

Amenity abounds, where the home is supported by rooftop solar, a Yass River water allocation and more than 140,000 litres of tank storage. A double car internal access garage and a 12 by 7 metre three-door American barn (with three-phase power) take care of the cars, the toys and the projects.

Flat, rock-free and useable, the 5.6-acre block suits a few horses, sheep or goats without the upkeep of a larger holding. With dual occupancy permitted under the council LEP (subject to approval), there is room to add a pool, a second dwelling, or simply enjoy the space as it is.

All of it roughly 25 minutes from the ACT border, a short drive to Yass, and an easy run to Canberra.
