Country character - Natural beauty - Genuine versatility
Set amongst the rolling landscapes of the New England high country, this exceptional 38ha (approximately 94 acres) property offers a rare combination of character, privacy, infrastructure and versatility.
From the warmth of the rustic main residence to the established equine infrastructure and expanses of open grazing and mature Australian hardwood forest, the property presents an enviable rural lifestyle with the flexibility to accommodate horses, livestock, guests and family alike.
The north facing three bedroom, single bathroom main home is rich in rustic charm, featuring beautiful timber flooring, custom timber windows and a welcoming wood-fired heater.
An elevated position takes full advantage of the surrounding landscape with a generous wrap-around deck extending along the northern and eastern sides of the home, an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining, morning coffee or simply taking in the tranquility of the property. A separate covered southern deck provides another sheltered outdoor living space, giving the home an abundance of options throughout the seasons.
Adding considerable versatility is a stand alone one bedroom granny flat, complete with kitchenette, bathroom and covered deck overlooking the surrounding New England forest. Perfect for extended family, guests or additional accommodation.
A separate recently completed guest suite provides another private retreat, featuring contemporary finishes, a beautifully appointed ensuite and air conditioning.
