Nestled amongst the rolling hills of the picturesque Ferguson Valley, this exceptional lifestyle property offers approximately 5.81 hectares (14 acres) of natural beauty, combining an open paddock, established bushland and picturesque Ferguson River frontage.
Lovingly crafted from rammed earth and thoughtfully custom designed in the 1980s, this charming home is rich in warmth, character and timeless appeal. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate its welcoming country cottage feel, complete with traditional sash windows, a beautiful stained-glass front entry door, and a classic wrap-around verandah-the perfect place to sit back with a coffee and enjoy the peaceful surrounds.
At the heart of the home sits a beautifully handcrafted kitchen featuring solid Jarrah benchtops, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and perfectly complementing the home's rustic charm.
Designed for comfortable family living, the residence offers four generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, with spacious living areas providing plenty of room to relax and entertain. One of the home's most distinctive features is its split-level design, with a private first floor accessed via the Jarrah staircase. This separate upper level accommodates the fourth bedroom and provides a versatile space that could also be utilised as a guest retreat, teenage hideaway, home office or creative studio.
Large windows throughout the home invite an abundance of natural light while framing the surrounding bushland and rural outlook, creating a wonderful connection between the home and its natural surroundings.
While the home has been lovingly cared for over the years, it presents an exciting opportunity for its next owners. With some modernisation and contemporary updates, this property provides a solid foundation to add your own style and create your dream country retreat, while preserving the unique craftsmanship and character that make it so special.
Outside is where this property truly comes to life. An open paddock provides space for hobby farming or simply enjoying the rural lifestyle, while acres of established natural bushland offer privacy, walking trails and abundant native wildlife. Meandering through the property, the beautiful Ferguson River creates a peaceful backdrop, complemented by what the current owners affectionately refer to as "the rainforest"-a cool, secluded retreat nestled beside the river, featuring an array of established ferns, majestic Bangalow palms and lush ground covers that create a truly magical setting to relax and unwind.
The property also boasts an impressive selection of established fruit trees, allowing you to enjoy fresh seasonal produce straight from your own garden. Varieties include four orange trees, one lime, one lemon, several mandarin trees, one grapefruit tree (not pink) and one feijoa, further enhancing the self-sufficient country lifestyle on offer.
A substantial shed offers excellent storage for machinery, vehicles or workshop space, while approximately 80,000 litres of rainwater storage provides ample water supply for the property. A solar panel system further enhances energy efficiency and helps reduce everyday running costs.
Positioned in one of the South West's most tightly held lifestyle locations, you'll enjoy the tranquillity of country living while remaining only approximately 20–25 minutes from Bunbury, with the Ferguson Valley's renowned wineries, breweries, cafés and scenic attractions all close by-including neighbouring Ferguson Falls, famous for its pizzas, wines and relaxed country atmosphere.
