A Haven for Heart and Soul (and Horses)

Situated on a private 5.88-acre block, complete with an impressive array of equestrian infrastructure – an 20mx60m arena with handcrafted hardwood timber fencing topped with euci mulch, new stable block (with separate tack and feed rooms and bidirectional access), and fenced into three expansive grazing paddocks – this one is well planned and equipped for equine activities.
The residence exudes a charming rural ambiance that seamlessly blends into its surroundings. Established gardens shroud the home, quintessential front and rear verandah’s provide shading and protection from the sun, and a manicured front lawn provide a the perfect outlook and space for living, and a private orchard brims with a variety of established fruit trees.

The well-appointed kitchen boasts 40mm stone benchtops, a large Blackbutt island bench, ample space for meal preparation and storage, as well as informal dining.
The open-plan central living areas of the home include a formal lounge with a bay window and a separate dining area. The light-filled space boasts high ceilings and integrated skylights; the cozy family room presents another living area, with a solid fuel combustion heater.
A brand new 9m x 4m in ground pool with heat pump solar heating means year round use. A total of 7 water tanks provides approx. 110,000 liters of storage; a licensed bore servicing all internal and external non-potable uses means water security isn’t a concern.
An expansive 24mx6m shed (with power) is divided into 4 bays, plus a 6×6 storage shed, a 6×6 lined man-cave with fireplace – the balance for parking (with height for floats, trucks or tall vehicles).
