Attracting smart investors and land bankers, this north-facing 283 square metre home on 4.84 gently contoured hectares (12 acres) was newly built in 2009 by the vendors on dairy farmland owned by the family for over 70 years. Beautifully canopied by mature trees, the sealed driveway forks to separately access the farm and the home's circular driveway. Wide double doors open into the foyer leading to the fabulous open plan living areas where sliding doors spill out onto the expansive timber deck and window walls flood the space with light and views of the gorgeous garden surrounds and across to the neighbouring farm. Presiding over adjoining family living and dining, the spacious, contemporary kitchen is excellently equipped, complete with large scullery and breakfast bar. More formal occasions are catered for by a separate lounge room to the side.
The master bedroom is opulent with walk-in robe, ensuite with underfloor heating and sliding doors onto the north facing deck. Bedrooms two and three also enjoy sliding doors to the gardens while the privately positioned fourth bedroom features a dual access bathroom. There's also a spacious study, the family bathroom with bath and shower, a powder room, separate laundry and a double lock-up garage with internal access. Outdoors, numerous shedding includes a concrete floored three bay shed with power, currently serving as a workshop and wood shed; there's another double garage with single door access, a large hay barn and an old cow shed. There's also both bore and tank water, five fenced paddocks and stock yards with loading ramp. Superbly presented with exceptional architectural appeal, this is a sophisticated home of excellent indoor/outdoor interactivity and ultimate comfort, ideally positioned and zoned for future financial advancement. Inspection by astute buyers is highly recommended.
