UNLOCK THE DETAILS
Set on an impressive 71.61 hectares or 176.95 acres, this well-equipped rural holding delivers the space, infrastructure and comfort needed for those looking to embrace a farming lifestyle without giving up the convenience of a solid family home. The three-bedroom brick residence offers a surprisingly generous interior, centred around a large open plan living zone that immediately creates a sense of warmth and practicality. A spacious carpeted lounge provides plenty of room for everyday family living, complete with reverse cycle split system air conditioning and a substantial slow combustion wood fire for year-round comfort. Flowing on from here, the tiled kitchen and dining area is both functional and welcoming, featuring a Belling oven, induction cooktop, dishwasher and breakfast bar that makes casual meals and busy mornings easy to manage.

All three bedrooms are well proportioned and include built-in robes, while the bathroom is centrally positioned and fitted with a bath, shower and vanity. A separate toilet and laundry add to the home's everyday functionality. From the dining room, a sliding door opens to a paved pergola that runs the full length of the home, creating an excellent outdoor entertaining space overlooking the secure backyard. This area is ideal for families and pet owners alike, with the added bonus of a dedicated pet enclosure for the fur babies.

Adding even more flexibility to the property is a separate detached rumpus room, perfect as a kids' retreat, games room, hobby space or a work-from-home setup. Outside, the infrastructure is a major drawcard. Shedding is extensive, with a 9m x 6m iron garage and a huge four-bay 16mx 14m Colorbond high-clearance shed has power, lights and concrete floor. With two doors offering 3m clearance and two with openings of approximately 3.5 metres, there is ample room for machinery, vehicles, caravans, boats or farm equipment.

Four rainwater tanks service the home and with the bore supplying the gardens and stock troughs via a header tank that gravity feeds stock troughs across the property. Fenced into seven paddocks and featuring a central laneway running to the rear paddocks, the layout has been thoughtfully designed for ease of stock management. Approximately 20 acres of native vegetation provide valuable shelter as well as a beautiful natural environment for those who appreciate the presence of local flora and fauna. A timber set of cattle yards with loading ramp and crush completes this versatile rural package, making it a property ready to work from day one.
