'Karlton Park is a gem, probably a green gem... so lets say that it is an emerald, a very, very fine emerald! Why a green gem you may ask? Two reasons, green because this prime Yass River frontage is the perfect country to grow emerald green Lucerne on and a gem because this big comfortable home, ideal farm infrastructure and top location is bound to continue increasing in value.
This is where your family will thrive, your income can increase and you will really appreciate the convenience of being virtually on the edge of town (Canberra that is, as Gungahlin is less than 15kms away!). Karlton Park has been a much-loved family property for many years and it has been a consistent pasture producer. Originally set up as a trotting stud, much of the horse infrastructure remains; it has enjoyed a long history of pasture improvement. Cocksfoot, various rye grasses and phlaris have been sewn into a number of the paddocks. Bi annual super, sewerage ash and lime have been regularly applied. You can see the results for yourselves; the grass literally bursts from the ground.
If you are going to continue the farming tradition here and enjoy the primary producer status that comes with it , then you will appreciate the large machinery shed (approximately 35x40m - with power), the skillion truck bay and the large hay shed. Cattle/sheep yards, horse shelters, machinery sheds and other farm infrastructure are in place and ready to use.
The house of rendered double brick is large by any standards - the main part has 4 generous bedrooms, a fully self contained attached one bedroom granny flat and at the opposite end, what is now set up as a sewing room, a storeroom and a large bathroom/laundry but could be used as B and B accommodation, another flat for the other granny or just more bedrooms!
The formal and informal living areas are light, airy and spacious. There is a lovely big open plan living and dining room with a bar at one end overlooking the garden and beautiful rural views beyond. The huge covered terrace is the perfect place for entertaining - barbeques, big Christmas lunches or even for a cup of tea at the end of a day in the veggie patch and orchard.
This really is the one to see, the property for your future, to grow your own everything - fat lambs, pasture, hobbies and even an income. Rent out the granny flat, turn Karlton Park into a B and B, make some hay, you could even plant some blueberries - whatever you choose as it is sure to grow here. This is also a rare gem, rarely does a 30.5 Hectare holding in this sought after area come on the market, so, call Ellie Merriman now for more information and an inspection on 0402 117 877.
