Nestled in the picturesque countryside, this 15.88-hectare property seamlessly combines the best of rural charm and modern living, offering a peaceful retreat just moments from local amenities. The land is a gently undulating expanse of alluvial pasture, enriched with a mix of lush grasses, including Paspalum, Kikuyu, Rye, Clover, and Couch, perfect for grazing livestock or farming. Divided into nine manageable paddocks with a convenient laneway system, the property is designed for ease of management, ensuring efficient stock movement and pasture care. With a well-established history of fertilisation using chicken litter and gypsum, the fertile soil is supported by two dams, an 80 Meg irrigation license, access from a channel, while a fire-fighting pump ensures irrigation around the home and orchard.
The residence is an inviting brick and iron home, exuding warmth and character. A charming bullnose verandah leads you into the foyer, where a spacious and light-filled interior awaits. The home boasts four generous bedrooms, each with built-in robes, and the master includes its own private ensuite. A large family bathroom serves the other bedrooms. At the heart of the home is a brand-new, stunning kitchen, featuring a freestanding oven/stove, a dishwasher, and a walk-in pantry, creating the perfect space for cooking and entertaining. The open-plan living areas flow seamlessly into a cozy lounge room, ideal for family gatherings. The enclosed entertaining area, with a built-in kitchen and BBQ, offers a peaceful setting for outdoor dining and relaxation, while overlooking the sparkling inground saltwater pool, a perfect spot to unwind.
For those working from home or seeking extra space, the property includes a separate two-bedroom studio, complete with a living area.
