Under its current custodians, however, Stoneleigh has entered a remarkable new chapter.The home has been comprehensively and sympathetically renovated, elevating its finish while preserving the warmth and character that made it so special in the first place.European oak flooring now flows throughout the living spaces, while luxurious 100% wool carpet softens the private accommodation. The interiors embrace a timeless palette of soft whites, natural textures and layered finishes, creating spaces that feel simultaneously sophisticated and welcoming.Decorative fretwork, soaring ceilings and French doors frame picturesque rural outlooks, while formal and informal living areas invite both grand entertaining and quiet moments by the fire.At the heart of the home, the country kitchen has been transformed into a space of understated elegance. Premium cabinetry, stone benchtops and brushed brass detailing complement the iconic Falcon cooker, generous island bench and butler's pantry - resulting in a kitchen equally suited to family life and celebration.The bathrooms and laundry have been reimagined to an exceptional standard. Floor-to-ceiling tiling, underfloor heating, bespoke cabinetry and carefully selected fixtures create a boutique, retreat-like experience rarely found in rural homes.The thoughtfully designed floorplan provides flexibility for every stage of life, offering five bedrooms plus a full-sized study or sixth bedroom, multiple living areas and a privately positioned master suite enjoying peaceful outlooks across the property.Beyond the residence, Stoneleigh continues to impress.The land has been carefully enhanced through upgraded cattle yards, additional fencing, pasture improvement programs and significant water access and security improvements - reflecting a genuine commitment to both productivity and environmental resilience.Water security is exceptional, with spring-fed creeks, multiple dams, a productive bore delivering approximately 7,000 litres per hour, extensive irrigation infrastructure and additional stock water storage supporting both agricultural pursuits and self-sufficient living.Established gardens, flourishing orchard plantings and considered landscaping surround the home, while a 9kW battery-ready solar system and solar hot water further enhance the property's efficiency.Yet perhaps Stoneleigh's greatest luxury is its balance.Bush walks and camping on your own land. Picnic hideaways beside the creeks. Complete privacy without isolation. The changing colours of the seasons unfolding from every window.All within easy reach of Yass and Canberra.Stoneleigh is more than a country home. It is a legacy property, beautifully reimagined, thoughtfully improved, and ready to be cherished by its next custodians.At a Glance•\tApprox. 170 acres (70 hectares) of rolling Yass Valley countryside •\tColonial-style Harkaway Home completed in 2006 •\tBuilt by renowned local craftsman Peter Grieves •\tFive bedrooms plus study (or sixth bedroom) •\tMultiple formal and informal living spaces •\tComprehensive high-end renovations throughout •\tEuropean oak flooring to living areas •\t100% wool carpet to bedrooms •\tRenovated bathrooms and laundry with floor-to-ceiling tiling •\tUnderfloor heating to bathrooms •\tPremium cabinetry and refined finishes •\tCountry kitchen with Falcon cooker, butler's pantry and stone benchtops •\tWraparound verandahs and cobblestone entertaining terrace •\tPrivately positioned master suite with walk-in robe and ensuite •\tThree-bay garage with workshop, additional carport and storage •\tMachinery shed with mezzanine, power and amenities •\tProductive bore delivering approximately 7,000L/hour •\tAdditional 80,000L stock water header tanks •\tWi-Fi enabled irrigation servicing established gardens and orchard •\tAdditional paddock fencing and upgraded cattle yards •\tMulloon Institute consultation and land improvement initiatives •\tMultiple dams and spring-fed creeks within the Yass River catchment •\t9kW battery-ready solar system and solar hot water •\tReliable nearby Telstra coverage supporting remote work Location Highlights•\tPositioned within the tightly held Yass River district •\tApproximately 20 minutes to Yass township •\tApproximately one hour to Canberra •\tElevated outlooks toward Mount Ramsey and the surrounding valley •\tComplete privacy without sacrificing convenience •\tExceptional bushwalking, camping and outdoor recreation on your own land •\tSurrounded by some of the Yass Valley's most picturesque countryside","YearBuilt":null,"LandArea":null,"Price":{"Currency":"AUD","Amount":null,"Display":"By Negotiation"},"Bedrooms":"6","Bathrooms":"3","Parking":"7","Features":[{"Name":"Bedrooms","Value":"6"},{"Name":"Bathrooms","Value":"3"},{"Name":"Carports","Value":"7"},{"Name":"Area","Value":"68.8 ha"},{"Name":"House Size","Value":"351 m²"}],"Inspections":[],"Auctions":[],"TimeZone":"AUS Eastern Standard Time","Latitude":-34.9243634,"Longitude":149.1457974,"Agent":{"Name":"Sam McGregor","CanonicalUrl":"https://realsearch.com.au/agent/sam-mcgregor"},"Agency":{"Name":"Windrose Property - MURRUMBATEMAN","CanonicalUrl":"https://realsearch.com.au/agency/windrose-property-murrumbateman"},"CreatedAt":"2026-06-16T07:32:16.8781283","UpdatedAt":"2026-06-17T06:37:12.3570623"}
