There are properties that impress you, but very few properties that simply make you feel at home like this one. From the moment you cross the quality concrete entry bridge over tranquil Watagan Creek, a canopy of leafy Lilly Pilly trees follows the creek before the landscape opens into a beautiful private grass meadow, revealing the charming timber homestead beyond. Framed by natural sandstone rock formations, established gardens and mature trees, the setting is immediately captivating.
Perfectly positioned to overlook a feature dam and spectacular mountain backdrop, the home enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and an ever-changing outlook, including beautiful sunsets across the valley. Despite its secluded feel, the property is easily accessible via a council-maintained road suitable for 2WD vehicles.
Inside, the home has an unmistakable warmth and character. Handmade timber features, stone walls, stained glass and a central slow-combustion fireplace create a wonderfully cosy atmosphere.
A timber kitchen features a walk-in pantry, island bench with plenty of storage, oven with gas cooktop and a traditional wood stove with wet-back water heating. The kitchen flows through to a sunny dining and sitting area, where timber bay windows frame views across the gardens and surrounding greenery with native birdlife a constant feature of this peaceful setting.
The house comprises three bedrooms, a dedicated office, spacious bathroom with clawfoot bath and stone feature wall, laundry with second toilet, plus a versatile multipurpose room with additional storage. A level lawn area at the rear of the home also provides an excellent opportunity for a future extension, subject to council approval.
The property is well serviced with mains power, solar panels, bottled gas and approximately 45,000 litres of tank storage, including dedicated bushfire reserves. Watagan Creek provides another potential water source while flowing, with the semi-permanent creek also creating an exceptional habitat for local wildlife.
Platypus, wombats, wallabies, water dragons and an abundance of birdlife are among the regular visitors, while the freshwater dam provides another picturesque focal point and an idyllic place to cool off in the warmer months.
The 40 acres offers an exceptional balance of fertile valley and natural bushland, with approximately 10 acres of productive grass country rising into spectacular native bush. The upper country has a distinctly lush, semi-rainforest character, with Lilly Pilly and myrtle forest, enormous vines and magnificent, mature Grey Gums.
Adding to the property's appeal are the extraordinary sandstone rock formations scattered throughout the grounds. Together with the established gardens and mature trees, they create a landscape that feels almost sculptural in its natural beauty.
For those looking to add further improvements, a second potential building site offers an opportunity for a substantial shed or secondary dwelling, subject to council approval. An existing track leads to this level area higher on the property, while beyond this the land adjoins State Forest, providing an expansive natural playground to explore.
Private, picturesque and wonderfully authentic, this is a special Watagan property offering a rare combination of character, natural beauty, privacy and lifestyle.
