History, charm, and country style

History, charm, and country style await you here amid glorious established gardens atop of Nether Hill. Sweeping views set the scene for a character home filled with warmth that is surrounded by peace and beauty. Key features include a gourmet kitchen, solar, abundant water, and great shedding. <br/><br/>Originally identified as the stables for Nether Hill farm, history dates the stone portion of the building to C1834. Converted to a residence in the 1920's, the present owners have lovingly extended and renovated the home over the last 10 years. One of a kind, it uniquely provides the opportunity for 2 families to live together, or the perfect Air B&B given its location and outlook. <br/><br/>Entertainers will adore the country themed kitchen located in the heart of this family orientated home. Polished beams and terracotta floors add texture to a functional space brimming with extensive cabinetry (there is so much storage here!). Graze at the island bench or dress your dining table for the next family celebration. Move guests into the living area where you will find enormous picture windows framing the outside world. Flooded with glorious natural light and overlooking the gardens, it's a spot you will not want to leave. <br/><br/>Climb the timber staircase and you will find the loft. What a fabulous spot for your home office/art studio, guest bedroom or exclusive parental retreat. All bedrooms are luxurious in size and the bathrooms/laundry beautifully appointed. Given the floor plan, this is a home with multiple options for one big family or two who require independence as there is a 2nd kitchen at the opposite end of the home. <br/><br/>Gently sloping, the land is all useable and provides views that will capture your heart. Fenced into 5 paddocks, the current owners have approval to keep 2 horses. Water is provided from multiple sources including a low sanity, equipped bore that grows everything here including strawberries. 4 tanks provide storage for both rain and bore water plus there is a dam. External improvements include a fantastic outdoor entertaining area, 15m x 6m workshop/garage, lean-to woodshed, and a chook house.<br/><br/>There is just so much to see and explore here. Come and savour the fresh, clean air, take a summer dip in the dam then wander back up to the cool shade of mature, leafy gardens. Gorge on the delights of your own fresh grown produce and soak up the sound of no traffic – it's just you and the birds.
