There's a whole lot going on at 68 Spears Drive, Oakford. Set on approximately 2.84 hectares-that's seven acres-we find a very substantial family home with an incredibly practical two-bedroom granny flat, multiple paddocks, stables, sheds, excellent water with a licence for the bore, and room for a horse or two or three or four.
This is some great rural living, and it has been very well set up for people who need space, flexibility and options. It's multi-generational perfect configuration for very together family living.
LIVING HERE
The main part of the home offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple living areas.
At the front is a tiled lounge room and the main bedroom, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and beautifully renovated ensuite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are positioned around the family bathroom, laundry and central living area.
The kitchen sits right at the heart of it all, with timber benchtops, a gas cooktop, electric oven with separate grill, dishwasher and pantry. It overlooks the paddocks and interacts beautifully with the meals area, family room and outdoor living space.
A highly effective wood fire keeps this entire area wonderfully comfortable, while the sliding doors create a very practical flow out to the patio.
THE GRANNY FLAT
This is such a good thing! Positioned under the main roof but able to be completely closed off, the granny flat is more like its own big apartment. It offers two bedrooms, a generous living area, a proper kitchen-not just a kitchenette-and a semi-ensuite bathroom with direct access from both bedrooms.
It also opens onto the outdoor living area and creates all sorts of possibilities. It could be brilliant for extended family, grown-up kids who won't move out, guests, a caretaker or simply anyone who needs their own space.
OUTSIDE
The property is divided into several paddocks, with stables and four separate day yards already in place. The setup could use some attention in parts, but the makings of something very decent are absolutely here.
A licensed bore provides water for the paddocks, while the home is supplied by rainwater tanks. There are taps positioned around the property for watering animals and maintaining the land throughout the hotter months.
From a practical perspective, there is excellent parking, a carport with shoppers' access, a large shed, additional storage sheds and plenty of usable space around the home. A BioCycle wastewater system services the property, and LPG bottles supply the cooking and storage hot-water system.
There are even 20 chickens pumping out some very good eggs and Dot the sheep enjoying the rural lifestyle. The animals may also be available to stay if that's part of your rural dream!
