Tucked away in an idyllic setting amid beautiful gardens, this outstanding home promises a highly rewarding country lifestyle of space and tranquility. Occupying a 2.18ha block, it’s a manageable hobby farm with all the benefits of running a few head of sheep or a horse, keeping chooks and harvesting fresh fruit and vegetables. Designed to let in abundant sunlight and views over the gardens from every room, the quality-built home has comfort at its heart. Several indoor and outdoor living areas provide privacy or a place to gather for all family members and it’s a terrific entertainer. Indoor living spaces consist of a generous lounge fitted with a wood fire, an adjoining dining room and a second sitting room, which could equally serve as a gymnasium, hobby room or guest bedroom. For year-round outdoor relaxing and entertaining, owners will be spoilt for choice. There’s an impressive undercover deck at the back – partially glazed, with pull-down blinds to regulate the temperature and enough space for parties. Further to this, at the side is a two-level deck, one section under cover and the other a sheltered spot for fine summer evenings. The kitchen is a good-sized workspace with a dishwasher, pantry and electric wall oven. In the king-sized master bedroom are built-in robes, an en suite bathroom complete with spa bath, and doors onto the rear veranda. Both other bedrooms are queen-sized, and the main bathroom is complete with bath, shower and vanity. The house block is fenced and snake-proofed. It consists of three areas of lawn with a gazebo and gardens brilliantly planned for minimal maintenance and featuring colourful natives, succulents, palms and ferns. There are two grassy paddocks – one with resident kangaroos – and water is abundant from an 11,000ltr rainwater tank, a dam and a bore. A chook run completes the picture. The terrific 20m x 7m powered shed has space for four vehicles, plus there’s a port for a full-sized caravan at the side. A 3.5kW solar system, solar hot water and security screens are other notable benefits. Being a 25-minute drive from Albany, 20 minutes from Denmark and within 10 minutes of Cosy Corner Beach for fishing and swimming, this beautifully maintained property will delight buyers looking to escape the city without sacrificing amenities.
