Brilliantly sited on 13.5ac (5.46ha) with breathtaking views over the Wattagan Ranges, a former one bedroom weekender is now a cleverly extended modern family home that delivers an idyllic lifestyle in a private yet not isolated location within easy reach of the Hunter’s major towns and historic villages, wineries, golf courses and notable sites. Surrounded by manicured lawns and low maintenance gardens, the original cottage boasts soaring cathedral ceilings that deliver a loft-style interior with mezzanine-level bedroom overlooking a practical timber kitchen and spacious free-flowing lounge and dining zone with french doors to rear and front verandahs. With its fully appointed bathroom with spa bath, slow-combustion heating, air-con, this delightful cottage is ideal for use as a teenager’s retreat, guest/extended family accommodation and STCA as an excellent revenue stream through its undeniable B&B potential.
A large, well-appointed common laundry connects the cottage to the main home, an expansive four bedroom single level executive residence reflecting many of the cottage’s features including cathedral ceilings and feature windows that seamlessly blend the home with its magnificent surroundings. The entertainer’s all-white kitchen boasts expansive contrasting marble bench tops and ample storage space, all-electric cooking including wall oven plus dishwasher, pantry and breakfast bar. Beyond, the family meals area and living zone open to an expansive covered alfresco patio with panoramic views. The superior quality sleeping arrangements include queen-size master suite plus 3 further double bedrooms each with BIR and sharing a modern, well-appointed family bathroom with vanity, shower and separate toilet. Beyond the fully fenced house garden is the ultimate entertainment venue – a beautiful in-ground swimming pool with sweeping timber deck. Additional features include reverse-cycle air-con, slow-combustion heating in lounge, ceiling fans throughout, 21,500gal tank water, enviro-cycle and transpiration waste management systems and chicken enclosure.
The acreage slopes away from the home to deliver commanding views above the treetops. 50% cleared with one large dam stocked with perch, bass and yabbies; remainder is significant timber.
Alphawood is a unique and charismatic property that offers a peaceful, rural lifestyle with income potential. This truly is paradise found.
