Longing for a place for a pony, some chooks and maybe even a cow or two, not to mention a highly productive vegetable plot? Look no further than this sublime, securely fenced and private 2 acre property that has everything that anyone could ever want for modern country living. The 22 square single level home has recently been very seriously extended and updated to include all those little luxuries such as a brilliant new kitchen with high quality stainless steel appliances and reverse cycle air conditioning. It is easy to see how much care and thought has been invested here and one good example of this is the matching workbench that extends across from the kitchen to the rear wall. It can be Mum’s sewing bench, the computer desk or the place for homework where parents can easily supervise while doing their own thing.

The current owners are a young family who know and understand what Mountain living is all about and they placed much emphasis on outdoor living as they undertook the extension to the original low set brick cottage. The home now boasts a large north facing wrap-around deck which adjoins the kitchen and family living. This way there is “the adults’ deck” and also “the kids” deck where the children can have their own outdoor setting and toys. They also made a real feature of the lattice screened north facing patio that adjoins the formal lounge room. This spot is really a winter outdoor space that is extremely well protected from the winds while well exposed to the sun. There is also a smaller covered east facing recess between the front door and the carport. Another perfectly protected sunny morning nook that is also extra cool and shaded on summer afternoons.

People with animals want them to be secure in their own surroundings and much care has been put into fencing the property to maximise privacy while also ensuring that the animals are unlikely to escape. As we all know, the biggest risk usually comes from someone failing to close the gate. Well, this wide front gate is sensor controlled and shuts automatically so the beloved dogs can not wander out. The pony paddock (currently used for sheep) is also well fenced with its own entry gate.

I have already mentioned an excellent water bore. This bore has been tested for pure drinking water and supplies all farm and household needs. In fact, a previous owner did have the property licensed for water sales and the very wide entry drive with open turning area was created for the water trucks to enter and turn. New owners might like to take advantage of this lucrative income producing option here although the license would have to be renewed.
