Wake to the view, grow with the land.
Where an established family home meets a productive, private block - sunrise views, a mineral pool and an orchard of your own, on 6,776 square metres in Murrumbateman's Merryville Estate.
Welcome home, to 5 Lupin Place, Murrumbateman.
The day starts with the view. East-facing, the home wakes to sunrise over the hills and paddocks, and that light follows you through the kitchen, the dining and the family room as the morning warms. Inside there is room for everyone - five bedrooms and a study across generous living, with a formal lounge and its fire, a separate family room, and a dining area beneath coffered ceilings. The primary suite keeps its own wing, with a walk-in robe and a spa ensuite, while the kitchen - walk-in pantry, a 900-millimetre Westinghouse oven, gas cooking - sits at the centre of it all, looking out to the green.
Outside is a life in itself. A heated mineral pool, set in coloured concrete, waits for summer; an outdoor pizza oven and a broad deck are made for the long table; and an orchard of more than fifteen fruit and nut varieties - apricot and peach, plum and cherry, fig, citrus, apple, pear and quince, feijoa, walnut, hazelnut, almond and olive - keeps something in season the year round, alongside berry bushes and vegetable gardens with years of establishing behind them. The kind of garden you grow into, not just look at.
There is room to work and play, too. The garage has been finished as a light-filled studio - a dance floor, a gym, a rumpus, whatever the season asks - and still opens as a garage when you want it, while a large detached shed takes the cars, the trailer and the projects. A 10-kilowatt solar system and generous water - a 90,000-litre concrete tank, a second tank and estate water across the property - keep the running costs low and the gardens green. And it is all close: minutes to the Murrumbateman village and the cellar doors, around 15 minutes to the ACT border, and half an hour to Canberra.
5 Lupin Place will suit a young family wanting room to run, swim and grow among the gardens - and appeal equally to anyone drawn to a quieter rhythm of sunrises, homegrown produce and starry nights. Either way, this exceptional home is ready for its next custodians to take a swim as the afternoon softens, pick something from the orchard, and settle in to the view.
