CHARISMATIC DUAL LIVING - BLUE CHIP LOCATION


Welcome to this sprawling single-storey residence, a perfect blend of historical charm and modern convenience, set on 1.38 hectares (3.45 acres) of serene Mixed Rural-zoned land. Originally built as a farmhouse in the 1920s, this home has been lovingly extended and modernised over the years.

The electric gates invite you into a property featuring a main residence and a fully consented two-bedroom Granny Flat, each with separate entries and expansive patios. These are adjoined by a double garage and double carport, ensuring ample parking space.

As you enter the main home, you'll find a full bathroom, a separate powder room, and a linen press located near the foyer and adjoining hallway. Two bedrooms with spacious built-in robes offer views across the fully fenced property. The light-filled kitchen, adorned with an ornate ceiling fan, golden cork-tile flooring, and engineered stone benchtops, overlooks the garden and opens into a sunlit dining room with decking access.

The hallway also leads to a spacious lounge featuring picturesque windows and a cozy wood fire, which opens into another living room with access to two decks—a large main deck and a smaller one. This ultra-large, sun-drenched recreation room shares a two-sided gas fireplace with the stylish master bedroom, which boasts outdoor access, a fan, a walk-in robe, and an ensuite with a dual basin vanity and under-floor heating.

The self-contained Granny Flat is equally impressive, with an open-plan kitchen and living room equipped with a heat pump and serene garden views. It also features two multi-purpose rooms serving as bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate powder room.

But that's not all—this property includes a free-standing garage (with a separate entrance), a garden shed, a glasshouse, an orchard with a wide selection of fruits, a chicken coop, three paddocks, and grassy spaces for children and pets to play. The list of features is endless.

This property is a delightful discovery tour, full of surprises and options in abundance. Our vendor has cherished and nurtured this charismatic property for many years, and now it's time for someone else to take the reins and make it their own. Come and take the discovery tour-you just might fall in love with it too.
