Not another soul in sight, just a sweeping western view across the valley from a C1900 farmhouse recast to combine its rich backstory with a modern extension to savour; 'Plane Tree Farm' is a lifestyle property worth the wait and in the best shape of its life on some 10 acres of unapologetic beauty.
A home of this age and scale only enhances the inkling that it was the original homestead of the region or, at the very least, commissioned by someone of prominence - the sense of mystery only adds to its allure.
As does its picture-prefect first impression the moment you set eyes on its timeless return verandah facade, dressed in white to pop against its lush, bore-fed surrounds that seemingly only end where the horizon does.
A 10KW solar system, that bore and veggie patches makes this as close to "off grid" as it can get without compromising an ounce of comfort and luxury in a home that creates a smooth, sympathetic transition from the original farmhouse to that addition.
The star: a stone-topped country-style kitchen with prime position at the head of a family room with the same polished concrete floors that feature in the lavish ensuited master wing.
Fenced paddocks, a chicken run, two large powered sheds, an entertainer's patio, shade from an ancient tree and a verandah that implores you to pull up a pew and watch the sun set over Paracombe ensures you'll love every corner of Plane Tree Farm. You're home.
