$1,700,000
Set across approximately 3.5 acres of established grounds, Yarrabee presents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure substantial acreage within Orange's town limits. With dual street frontage to Shiralee Road and Cecil Road, a charming historic homestead, decades of established landscaping and exciting future potential, this is a property offering a combination of space, character and opportunity that is seldom found in such a convenient location. Ready for its next chapter, Yarrabee offers the chance to breathe new life into a truly special property and make it your own.
Dating back to circa 1880, the homestead is rich in history and architectural character. Inside, soaring timber-lined ceilings, beautiful leadlight windows, polished timber floorboards, decorative chandeliers and traditional timber joinery reflect the home's heritage. The impressive main living room is a particular highlight, featuring vaulted ceilings, a feature fireplace and a wonderful sense of space. A spacious kitchen combines modern appliances and generous bench space with a traditional cast-iron stove, while three bedrooms and two bathrooms provide comfortable accommodation. Updated and improved over the years, the home retains much of its original charm and character, with an opportunity for its next owners to undertake further maintenance, improvements and personal touches to bring it back to its very best.
Outside, the foundations of something truly special are already in place. Decades of landscaping have established an extraordinary collection of mature trees, hedges, garden beds and winding pathways, creating the framework for a beautiful and private country garden. While the grounds would benefit from some renewed care and attention, the established plantings and thoughtful original landscaping offer an incredible head start for those with a passion for gardens. A charming front verandah, garden gazebo, rear entertaining deck and expansive lawns provide a variety of spaces to enjoy. A detached garden studio offers further potential to create a wonderful hobby space, creative retreat or home office, while a huge four-bay barn-style shed with workshop space and an extra-high-clearance roller door provides exceptional versatility for tradespeople, hobbyists and substantial storage.
Beyond its immediate appeal as a character-filled acreage property, Yarrabee also presents an interesting opportunity for those considering its longer-term potential. With approximately 1.4 hectares of land, dual street frontage and its position within the Shiralee precinct, the property may offer future subdivision opportunities, subject to Council approval and all relevant planning requirements. An extract from Orange City Council's Shiralee Development Control Plan 2015 has been included within the marketing material for reference, and interested parties are encouraged to undertake their own investigations regarding potential future development.
