Rarely does a property with so much to offer come onto the Bungendore market - "Ashby" offers an historic home with contemporary extensions, extensive low maintenance garden, tennis court, quality paddocks (44.3ha) and excellent agricultural infrastructure. As you'll see in the video, "Ashby" is this Springs Number One Lifestyle offering in the Bungendore region.
Privately positioned within walking distance to Bungendore township, this beautiful stone homestead was first settled circa 1836 and is located on 109 acres of fine level and improved pasture with Tarago Rd forming the boundary to the East and Turallo Creek to the West.
The original home with thick stone walls and hardwood floors (140msqm) was extended by architect Bert Read in 1976 by an additional 140sqm. Between 2000 and 2002 the current owners added another 115sqm adding a north facing conservatory style dining area, study, master bedroom and ensuite. The home offers a choice of living areas from the cosy original sitting room to a spacious games room and the sunny bright north facing family room.
The family room opens onto a paved area with a pergola creating an inviting outdoor entertaining area for post tennis, barbeques and jugs of Pimms with family and friends... if you ever wanted a lifestyle property to enjoy and impress Ashby is the must see property this Spring season.
Whether it is sitting by the pond, enjoying the studio by the dam, riding your steed across the beautiful clear paddocks or just a lovely walk down to Turallo Creek - this property reflects the very best in lifestyle living at Bungendore.
But "Ashby" is not just about entertaining and enjoying the good life - this property has been run successfully as a cattle stud, it can be cropped to produce a variety of feeds including lucerne, oats, (as this property sits on the Lake forshore water is not a problem with a licensed bore, plenty of tank storage and a strong and visually stunning dam) or it could make an absolutely amazing equine property. The ground is level with plenty of room for an arena, jump area and resting paddocks to boot. There are 8 paddocks, stock yards, a huge hay shed and there has been extensive tree planting to provide wind shelter.
To the West is the Wamboin Escarpment, the Great Dividing Range to the North and East and Bungendore Township to the South - and only a few hundred metres to the Main Village and it's restaurants, cafes and tourism spots.
Ashby is conveniently located, commuting to Queanbeyan or Canberra for work is a breeze - less than 25 minutes to Queanbeyan and Dickson, the school bus services to the local and Canberra Schools are close by and easily accessed - on weekends Ashby is less than an hour and a half to Bateman's Bay.
