There’s everything to love about this extensive property if you’re in the market for a manageable rural holding near town.
It consists of a grassy 2.43ha block – ideal for horses – with a versatile family home and an adjoining self-contained flat, plus numerous sheds.
Set in attractive lawns with garden beds, fruit trees, vines and veggie patches, the home is neat and welcoming.
In the main section, the lounge is a sunny room with a wood fire to heat the entire living area, and the adjoining dining room has French doors onto the front veranda.
Next is the good-sized kitchen, with gas cooking and space for a meals table.
Three of the bedrooms are in the main house, along with the laundry and the main bathroom with spa bath and toilet.
At the back door is an undercover entertaining area, which opens onto an office, and a toilet. Adjacent to it is another kitchen for outdoor cooking or cleaning up the barbie.
A real treat is the granny flat, which occupies one end of the house and has a sizeable lounge and dining area, double bedroom, kitchen, shower room, toilet and even its own laundry as well as external access.
The land is well fenced into four paddocks of lush, well-drained pasture in addition to the house block, and native trees at the perimeter provide shade for stock in every paddock.
There’s a shed for everything here, from horse floats to boats, and all with power connected.
One three-bay shed has 3m-clearance doors, there’s a two-bay general purpose shed and workshop, and a two-bay machinery shed with access from two sides and space for a tractor. In addition, there’s a fish-cleaning shed complete with a sink and room for the fish fridge.
This holding is among horse properties and close to the bridle trail, and it has a round yard and stables in place.
Having been in the same family for many years, the estate has clearly been well managed and is nicely presented throughout.
It is just six minutes’ drive from York Street, making it an ideal proposition for those aspiring to the hobby farm lifestyle with a horse for the children and sheds for all purposes without compromising on amenities.
