Are you looking for a bit of space to call your own?
Set back from the road on 1.54ha (nearly 4acres) on the quiet end of the road is this versatile rural family home and only minutes from the town centre.
As you enter the home into the sunroom the dedication of the master tradesman that designed and constructed the home is evident. It was built in the late 1940's by an ex Italian prisoner of war, from locally sourced stone with timber finishes, ornate ceiling roses and cornice, this home has been well maintained over time and modernised.
The home has a semi free flowing design linking the lounge, dining room and kitchen.
The three bedrooms are generously sized and one has the start of an ensuite.
Although the home has ducted air conditioning throughout there's nothing better than sitting in the lounge watching a wood fire in winter and the rain through the large windows.
Power bills are not an issue with 16 solar panels providing solar power.
A versatile large studio (approx. 6x8m) is connected to the house by the veranda contains the laundry. Currently used as an art studio but could be used as a games room or home office - the options are plenty.
The rustic weatherboard workshop also has character maybe you can use it as a sales venue.
Between the studio and the workshop is a covered patio area ideal for relaxing out of the weather.
The versatility of the home doesn't stop there.
Currently the garden is low maintenance and has reticulation but this was once a very loved garden full of colour and diversity, it has good bones and the structure is still there waiting for the you to add your touch.
The rear garden has an assortment of fruit trees, a chicken enclosure and compost bay
The remainder of the property is divided into two large paddocks which have water troughs and there's even a hay shed.
Maybe you don't want have horses or other livestock???
Subdivision would be possible.
Whether you are raising a family, planning on growing your own produce or retiring here, there is much more on offer so organise an inspection to avoid disappointment.
