House For Sale
Are you looking for a home with nothing to be done? Do you need space for the kids of all ages?
This is the home for you. It is the perfect family home, to suit all ages. It is set on three and a half acres, perfectly positioned to enjoy rural living but only minutes from town. It is an entertainers dream with 3 entertaining areas and salt water in ground pool, to cool down in the hot summer.
There are five well sized bedrooms, four with built ins and ensuite to main. The fifth bedroom could be made into an office or teens retreat with own entrance. The large main bathroom boasts a corner spa to enjoy after a long day at work.
Large well designed kitchen and main living area. The kitchen boasts a double wall oven and a large area to cook up a feast. Heating and cooling is not an issue in the home. Winter is covered with Under Slab floor heating, reverse cycle air conditioning and a large wood fire in the main living area.
In summer you will be kept comfortable with reverse cycle ducted air conditioning. The kids will be sorted with their own lounge/rumpus room and a cubby house in the large back yard which is secure and fenced off.
With the inside taken care of, the outside also has lots to offer. There is a two car garage with internal access at the front of the home. Around the back is every man’s dream- a six car garage with workshop space, and three phase power- perfect to make a man’s cave!
The outside has had the hard work done for you, with established trees and gardens that are self-maintained, with the trees on dripper systems. The house sits on two acres and one and a half acres out the back is fenced off to run a few cattle or sheep.
With a 5kw solar system connected to house, power bills won’t be a headache.
NBN Wireless has been installed and the property utilises a Bio Septic System.
This property has everything you could want for and nothing to be done, except move in and make yourself a home.
