This exceptional lifestyle property offers the perfect blend of quality, space, and tranquillity - all just minutes from town. Carefully and lovingly developed by its one and only owner since 2016, this 345sqm (more or less) home and its surroundings have been crafted to capture comfort, beauty, and those breathtaking river and rural views.
Set on manicured grounds, the property is an oasis of colour through the seasons. The beautifully landscaped gardens feature specimen trees, established plantings, and a fully automated irrigation system. There’s also scope for grazing animals, horses or exploring horticultural opportunities in the adjoining paddock, which comes on its own separate title.
Designed for easy, single-level living, the home features an inviting open plan kitchen, dining, and family area, with adjoining formal dining and lounge that can be opened up for seamless entertaining. The covered patio extends the living outdoors - a perfect spot to unwind with a coffee or glass of wine while taking in the expansive views.
The modern kitchen is light and bright, complete with a walk-in butler’s pantry, breakfast bar, double wall oven, induction hob, and ample storage, including an on-bench pantry and fridge/freezer. Five double bedrooms provide plenty of accommodation, including a separate two-bedroom wing with shared ensuite and walk-in wardrobes, used as the main bedrooms. A fifth bedroom serves perfectly as a hobby or sewing room.
Comfort is ensured year-round with individually controlled central heating in each room. The family bathroom is spacious and includes a bath, shower, and vanity, complemented by a separate toilet. A generous walk-in linen room, dedicated office, and internal-access double garage (fully carpeted with electric door opener) add to the home’s practicality.
Outdoors, a second double garage provides workshop space and secure storage for extra vehicles or tools.
This is a truly special property - combining peaceful country living with city convenience, presented in impeccable condition and ready for new owners to enjoy.
