SWAN VALLEY COLONIAL CHARACTER MANOR ON 10 ACRES WITH ITS OWN LAKE

The opulence of this property is evident from the moment you enter through the front double gates. This exquisite colonial character home, which sits on 10 glorious acres with its own lake (and boathouse) could be your next business venture, or retained as a magnificent family home. <br/> <br/>The current owners, who established this property, ran it as a successful Bed & Breakfast for 14 years, and it's perfectly set up for the next owner to step into the role of host or hostess. <br/><br/>There are 4/5 huge bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main homestead, with a separate cottage/studio for music, writing, painting or perhaps for a friendly care-taker to reside. <br/> <br/>There are grazing paddocks and plenty or room to ride around the grounds, an abundance of trees and English style country gardens to enjoy. The scented rose gardens are spectacular and there are plenty of quiet shaded purpose-built areas of retreat, to sit with a book and a drink and enjoy the views. <br/><br/>The homestead has been meticulously maintained by the current owners and has a grand but, at the same time, homely, feel. The way it's been designed, means that owners have their own private living zone and guests or family can enjoy the rest of the house. <br/><br/>High ceilings in all the rooms create a sense of spaciousness and the design is a combination of traditional with all the "mod cons". There is zoned ducted reverse cycle air conditioning, valet vacuum cleaner, mains water, a bore for the gardens and excellent internet/NBN.<br/> <br/>The one hectare private lake is a haven for bird life. With permanent fresh water, it has, in the past, produced restaurant quality marron. In the winter, the lakes gets so full that you can sit on the jetty of the boathouse and dangle your toes in the water!.<br/><br/>The 4 car garage freestanding in matching brickwork is massive, and contains an area for a workshop. There are some "toys" which can be included in the sale, such as a John Deere ride-on mower, a Dingo Earth Mover and a self-propelled rotary mower, by negotiation.<br/><br/>This property looks stunning, whatever the season, and we have included some photos taken in the autumn, so that you can marvel at the beautiful colours of the trees. <br/><br/>All this, and so much more, accessed via a quiet cul-de-sac, within minutes of all the attractions which the Swan Valley has to offer, whilst remaining within such easy reach of the City.<br/><br/>
