Private, tranquil resort-style living with income potential!

Nestled on a picturesque, beautifully landscaped approximate 1.4ac parcel of land, this unique lifestyle property pays homage to nature and the Australian bush with its construction from a selection of quality timber, slate and iron. Maximising its south-east aspect and breathtaking views of the Gloucester mountain ranges, the home offers free-flowing resort style living across multiple indoor/outdoor spaces, the timber giving a warm and cosy ambience indoors, while outdoors it merges the home with its natural surroundings. The spacious kitchen continues the country theme with timber cabinetry, gleaming stone benchtops, butler’s sink, electric cooking, dishwasher and old-world slow combustion stove ideal for baking and winter heating. Alfresco dining is a must on the spacious paved patio or in the octagonal gazebo, or the massive deck area adjacent to the outdoor kitchen with electricity, water, BBQ, rotisserie and pizza oven, this beautiful space also being ideal for wedding and function venue. With instant appeal to every family member, is the 11.4m x 4.5m saltwater swimming pool attached to a bathroom and sauna all within easy reach to the bar, guaranteeing hours of relaxation and entertainment!

There are three bedrooms, the premier with a full sized ensuite including double shower with laundry and walk in robe. The second and third bedrooms both feature BIR’s and share a centrally located family bathroom with a shower, vanity, and toilet. An additional library room would also make an ideal study/home office. A self-contained studio with kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom is a brilliant teenager’s retreat or guest/BnB revenue generating an accommodation venue. Additional features: reverse-cycle air-conditioning, ceiling fans.

The landscaped gardens feature meandering paths and water-miser native plants. Vegetable plots, potting shed, a fox-proof chicken house and boutique orchard with apple, citrus, guava, grapes, bananas, stone fruits, bananas allow for a more self-sufficient lifestyle and add a beautiful vista year-round.
