COUNTRY LIVING WITH SPACE IN SPADES
Families craving country air with enough land for keeping horses or a few sheep and chooks, harvesting fresh fruit and veggies and living in a versatile home big enough for a brood will love this property.
Of 3.06 ha (approximately 7.65 acres), the estate offers all this plus a powered double garage, stables and several open or lock-up sheds – some with power.
Zoned Rural and only 10 minutes’ drive from Albany’s CBD, the two-storey Cedar clad and Colorbond home also has an adjoining self-contained cottage, ideal for accommodating extended family such as ageing parents or independent teens.
On the top floor of the main home is the sunny living area with a wood fire and windows taking in a tranquil outlook over the lush green property.
Next to the living space is the big kitchen with ivory cabinetry and an Ilve chef’s stove, and the dining area.
One of the bedrooms is on this level and stairs lead down to two more as well as the bathroom and laundry.
There’s a built-in pizza oven in a terrific, sheltered alcove at the rear, next to a covered al fresco area with a feature mosaic floor.
Displaying an endearingly retro charm, the cottage consists of a living room with the kitchen at one end, a bathroom with space for laundry equipment, and two double bedrooms.
The land is terraced into three fairly level sections. The houses occupy the top part, the next is for the sheds, stables, garages and propagation areas, and the bottom paddock is ideal for running stock.
This last paddock is grassy and mostly cleared with stands of tall natives for shelter and good fencing of Ringlock and electric.
Stock water is plentiful from a soak and three rainwater tanks, and scheme water is also connected to the houses.
Several established fruit trees and a chook run also await the new owners of this exciting property, which is within easy reach of shops and schools.
