Set beyond gated entry and a cypress-line driveway on 10.5 acres (approx) with a stable complex and arena, this equestrian property offers a three-bedroom home and two-bedroom guest cottage to create a true country oasis.
The single-level sandstone residence has been oriented to the west to capture spectacular nightly sunsets over the barbecue deck and solar-heated swimming pool.
Between brand-new premium hardwood flooring and a vaulted Oregon timber-lined ceiling, the spacious open-plan living and dining area is backdropped by a toasty new Woodpecker fireplace (ducted to the bedrooms) and tall picture windows framing the pool area and rolling pastures beyond.
A large and luminous kitchen with island breakfast bar and two walk-in pantries boasts a brand-new GLM oven and rangehood, while multiple sets of sliding glass doors allow a seamless integrating of indoor and outdoor spaces, harnessing the serenity of country living.
The well-sized master bedroom with pool view and dressing room eagerly awaits installation of a new ensuite in the existing footprint, which includes a central study/third bedroom and bathroom with separate toilet.
The two-bedroom weatherboard cottage has been partially shelled to make way for a contemporary fitout and currently features an open-plan living area, an existing bathroom and alcove to install a kitchen or kitchenette to create comfortable detached lodgings for guests, in-laws or groundskeepers.
