20 Rose Street
Murrumbateman NSW

Some homes let you have it both ways.

Walk to the bakery for bread and a pie, to the café for a coffee, to the pub for a meal and a beer – then come home to a fenced, hedged garden so private and quiet you’d swear you were in the middle of nowhere.

Set on a flat 2,026 square metre block in the heart of Murrumbateman, this warm, low-maintenance home offers a rare kind of balance: real village connection and genuine seclusion, at one address.

And zoned RU5 Village, it offers something more – the freedom to live in it, work from it, or grow it.

Welcome home, to 20 Rose Street, Murrumbateman.

For its current owner, this was the country retreat that let them step out of the city’s hustle without stepping away from life.

Days here are unhurried – a cup of tea in the sun on the veranda, the dog at your feet, the warmth of the northerly light on the house, and gardens designed to be enjoyed rather than laboured over.

What the owner will miss most, though, isn’t the house – it’s the people: a community where someone is always up for a walk to the showgrounds or a coffee, the kind of neighbours who make a place feel like home.

Behind the return veranda and its iron lacework sits a warm, welcoming home of three bedroosm and two bathrooms, the master with ensuite and walk-in robe.

A light-filled kitchen – stone island, breakfast bar and gas cooking over warm parquetry floors – opens to living and dining, joined by multiple living areas, a versatile office or guest room, and year-round comfort from gas central heating, a fireplace and evaporative cooling.

A self-contained second dwelling adds a further bedroom and bathroom, ideal for extended family, guests or income.

The rare part is the flexibility.

Zoned RU5 Village, with a self-contained dwelling, established gardens, multiple water tanks and a 5.55kW solar system already in place, the home is set up to work as hard as you would like it to – the owner’s own professional salon is proof of how easily a business can run from here, and the same zoning opens the door to dual occupancy or a light-commercial venture (subject to council approval).

All of it a short walk from the village centre, roughly 20 minutes from the ACT border and 15 from Yass, with Canberra an easy drive beyond.
