Set on 4.5 park-like acres, this beautiful country home is surrounded by exclusive estates, is on town water, has plenty of shedding (and stables), is only 35 minutes to the Newcastle CBD and only 25 minutes to the sand dunes of Stockton Beach! It is also just a short drive to the cellar doors, patisseries and restaurants of Lorn and Morpeth – there is little wonder this leafy neighbourhood has become the sought-after location for so many city dwellers in recent months.
As you arrive, established shade trees and clipped hedges provide a beautiful welcome. The home is the picture of a country residence – high pitched roofline, wrap-around verandas and traditional ornate brick entry stairs. Stepping inside, high ceilings, a fresh colour palette and abundant natural light give the home a spacious and relaxed feel. The large main living area features a huge wood-burning fireplace, picture-rail all around the room and beautiful fretwork. An adjacent timber kitchen with modern appliances also offers a walk-in pantry and an additional dining area.
Three great bedrooms offer space for the entire family. Two bedrooms offer built-in robes and share the main bathroom while the main offers a walk-in robe, refreshed ensuite and French doors which open on to a covered deck which overlooks the garden. A neat and functional laundry complete the home and it is all kept comfortable year-round by reverse-cycle air conditioning.
Adjacent to the home is an oversized brick barn with loft storage as well as two car ports and an additional double garage – plenty of space for cars, caravans, boats, horse floats and anything else your heart desires.
The property is cleverly fenced into three paddocks and offers a chicken run, some established fruit trees, two great horse stables with day yards and is watered by a natural pond.
Ticking every box and offering all that it does, this property will be highly sought-after.
