Upstairs has been carefully designed with guests and extended family in mind. It offers one bedroom with two double beds and a separate living area equipped with reverse-cycle air-conditioning. The generous space also presents endless potential, with room to create additional bedrooms, a home office, studio or games room to suit your lifestyle needs.
Shedding is the real treat, with a three-bay shed plus a lockable workshop, along with an additional three-bay machinery shed suitable for a tractor, excavator or any equipment you wish to keep securely covered. The property is well-equipped for comfortable rural living, with mains power connected and solar installed for energy efficiency. The property is supported by an impressive 100,000 litres of water storage, complemented by a fully established septic system for added convenience and self-sufficiency.
Keeping with the natural theme, the grounds surrounding the home are beautifully manicured and feature a variety of fruit trees. A bushland paddock provides space suitable for a few hobby animals, while existing cattle yards remain in place for added practicality. For those with a green thumb, there are established vegetable beds serviced by tank water. A seasonal creek and small dam further contribute to the property's water storage and rural charm.
If building a new home is something you're interested in, you can comfortably live in the existing shed home while you build. There is a raised building area where the current owners had planned to construct a second dwelling, presenting a fantastic opportunity to take advantage of the prepared site for a new home or even an additional shed.
Whether you are a quiet, nature-loving couple searching for a permanent tree change, a growing family wanting to embrace the serenity of rural living, or simply looking for a peaceful property you can lock up and holiday to - or even holiday let for weekend escapes - this versatile acreage offers the perfect opportunity to enjoy a relaxed country lifestyle.
