The Outdoors

With no immediate neighbours, privacy is an overriding characteristic of this delightful property, which is fully fenced and gated.

From the main residence, it’s easy to imagine your evenings sitting on the deck, outside the pub-room, enjoying the view across the open grounds. Below you, the fire pit which sits below the deck, alongside the magnificent, commercial quality outdoor pizza oven.

Gardens around the house are fully reticulated.

The sense of space is unmissable. Perfect for large or extended families or those wishing to establish a home-based hospitality business - which it has been in the past.

The large, main residence is complemented by a two bed, two bath, cedar clad chalet, as well as the original homestead (which requires some renovations to restore it to its original glory), and a complex of charming railway carriages set up for group accommodation, complete with separate ablution block, volley ball court and surfaced cricket pitch.  

Great for the kids!

The history of this property includes having been a successful Holiday Retreat with a Special Use consent from the Shire. The chalet, original homestead and railway carriages remain from that past life, which could quite probably be revived.

Alternatively, the additional accommodation could supply much needed housing for your extended family, friends or tenants.


The Main House

The Main Attraction!

An indulgence of space, comfort and a sense of well-being. That will be your introduction to this extremely comfortable, family home, as you enter from the paved driveway through the welcoming front entrance.

The wide entrance hall leads past a spacious office / study / 2nd Lounge Room to an open-plan living / dining / family space. From this lovely space, with central slow combustion burner, wide glass windows and doors open onto a covered patio and, beyond that, the garden waits for you. The patio opens onto the pool deck.

The kitchen is well appointed with a large, walk-in cool room and pantry. 

From the main living area, the home has the main bed, office and a games room / pub to one end of the house, and the other end is a complete wing with three bedrooms, spacious and well equipped 2nd kitchen / diner, and an amazing upstairs loft across the whole width of the house. Splitting the house into two independent living units, each fully capable of standing alone would take little more than locking a door! 

Features include solid timber flooring to the main living areas, carpeted bedrooms and a stunning en-suite with private outside spa and sauna.

The Chalet

The homestead does require renovation to be fully functional and liveable again, but the charm and character of this house are still clearly evident. 

This could be a lovely home again.


Railway Carriages

These were obviously established when the property was being used for Holiday Accommodation and would have been suitable for active youngsters or family groups.

Two carriages have a covered area between them with a brick built-in BBQ at one end. One carriage has 16 bunk beds, two have 8 each and one is a communal and games area.

There is a separate, ablution facility for the carriages.

And don’t forget the chook coop. Just waiting for the chooks.
