The deceptively spacious red cedar home is very comfortable and quite charming, but the stars of the show here are outside. There's a desirable mix of nice level paddocks and undulating native bush with tracks into the adjoining state forest you can explore on foot, horseback or motorbike. The 12m x 6m shed has plenty of room to store all your gear with double sliding doors and 3 metre clearance plus an extra carport for your caravan or camper in addition to the 3 bay carport adjacent to the house. There's a horse yard, one smaller paddock with water on tap and a big paddock with a nice dam.
The house is in immaculate condition and includes 3 big bedrooms and a study or 4th bedroom, 2 bathrooms and a practical laundry/mud room plus a lovely big country style kitchen and huge open plan living area with an open fire and soaring cathedral ceilings. There's also a wood combustion heater and 3 reverse cycle split systems, so comfort is assured in all seasons. We love the wide verandahs that shade the home from the heat of summer, but the climate at this elevation is a little cooler year round.
The location is brilliant, just 15 minutes from Mansfield with a school bus stop at the end of the street. There's no through traffic, and a great community with lovely neighbours that are within easy reach but well out of sight and earshot. You can sit in the sun on the big North facing rear deck, watch the beautiful array of birds enjoy the native gardens... and feel like you are miles from anywhere!
