The essence of country elegance – where timeless character meets thoughtful modern refinement across a productive and beautifully curated landscape.

Welcome home, to 1341 Cooks Hill Road, Bango.

Set across 30 acres of sheltered, productive country, this exceptional holding offers a rare balance of lifestyle, agricultural capability and refined country living. Originally built in 1952 and comprehensively renovated in 2023, the residence now spans approximately 290sqm of internal living, combining heritage charm with modern functionality.

Inside, the home unfolds across a series of generous living spaces designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. A welcoming lounge anchored by a slow-combustion fireplace, a dedicated bar area, formal dining and relaxed family meals space all connect seamlessly, while large north-east facing windows capture natural light and frame views across the surrounding landscape.

At the heart of the home sits a beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen, thoughtfully renovated and extended to create a true gathering place. Featuring granite benchtops, custom joinery and premium Miele and SMEG appliances, the space is equally suited to large-scale entertaining or quiet family evenings at home.

Accommodation includes five well-proportioned bedrooms and two elegantly renovated bathrooms, with the master suite offering generous storage and peaceful outlooks across the gardens.

Comfort throughout the seasons is assured with an 18kW, eight-zone ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling system, complemented by multiple fireplaces – adding warmth and atmosphere.

Outdoors, the property reveals its true scale and versatility. A north-facing travertine tiled veranda overlooks professionally landscaped gardens and a sweeping rural outlook, while the surrounding grounds have been carefully designed to blend beauty with productivity.

The gardens are a highlight, featuring an 85-tree heritage cider orchard, a 600-vine hobby vineyard, expansive irrigated vegetable gardens and established ornamental plantings. All are supported by an advanced 36-zone automated irrigation system, fed from a substantial dam and managed via Wi-Fi controls.

A substantial 432sqm powered shed (24 bay) offers enormous flexibility for machinery storage, workshop space, agricultural operations or potential barn-style stabling for horses. Combined with a two-car carport adjacent to the home, the property provides exceptional storage and operational capacity.

Water security is outstanding, with 140,000 litres of storage, a modern treatment system, a newly installed unmetered bore producing 33 litres per minute, and a 6-megalitre dam supporting both irrigation and broader agricultural use.

Sheltered by surrounding hills and benefitting from fertile, clean pasture, the land itself is both highly usable and visually striking – a rare find in an area where rocky or dry ground can often limit productivity.

With its combination of refined living spaces, extensive infrastructure and beautifully established productive gardens, 1341 Cooks Hill Road offers a lifestyle of remarkable depth and opportunity. Whether your vision is boutique agriculture, equestrian pursuits, rural retreat living or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of a truly exceptional country property, this is a holding and homestead ready to reward its next custodians.
