Country Living within minutes of suburban creature comforts!
This charming Circa 1900 Character home is situated on 4.51 HA of gently undulating land.
From the moment you drive off the main road you get the feeling you have driven miles out of the city when in reality you are only a stone’s throw from major shopping centres, schools, Drs surgeries and other essential conveniences.
The Land:
There is 4.51HA or approx. 11.14 Acres of gently undulating land which could be used for stock/horses or for cropping. The boundaries are fenced except for part of the front north western side. The gardens are beautiful and the house yard is fully fenced to keep in children and dogs.
The House:
This home oozes charm and character with the original stone section built with local stone from the quarry in Craigmore.
The home consists of 3 large carpeted bedrooms with high pressed tin ceilings. The lounge area has both a Reverse cycle Fujitsu Inverter split system and a slow combustion heater in the old fireplace. The huge country kitchen has easy care vinyl flooring and is a chef’s delight with not only a modern gas stove but also the added charm of a Stanley Comeragh Deluxe wood fired large capacity roasting oven.
That in itself heats the whole home! There is also an abundance of cupboard space.
The back part of the home consists of a void with cupboards that could be utilised as a computer room/study or storage area. The renovated bathroom is situated off this room.
The enclosed lobby houses the electric hot water service which services the bathroom, whereas the kitchen is serviced by a gas hot water service. There is another room off of the lobby which could be utilised as a 4th bedroom/utility room.
Improvements:
There is a spacious 4 bay partially open garage/carport with a 5th bay that is closed to store rubbish bins etc.
3 garden sheds and a workshop/toolshed will provide plenty of space for storage.
Also included is a 6m x 12m shed with dirt floor and very wide opening which could be utilised for a number of options. A huge fox proof chook shed is situated near the sheds.
The main backyard also offers an outside rumpus/living room with a verandah, with a magnificent view of the countryside and the ocean down to Outer Harbour.
A 1.9 kw solar system with good feed in tariff ensures your electricity bills are kept to a minimum.
There is a glass house for the florist/garden enthusiasts.
Approx 95,000L of rainwater services the house and the garden and toilet/laundry are serviced by bore water from the communal bore.
