They don't come much more idyllic than this utterly charming early 1900 home. As you come up the driveway, you can't help but instantly fall in love. The home sits proud amongst its own gardens overlooking the rolling green pastures that surround it. There is an old barn up the back that oozes character, with deciduous trees scattered around some big old gums, setting the most perfect country scene. Sitting amongst a gorgeous rural setting with sheep and horses that visit you along the fence line will make you feel like you own a farm, yet the 1940m2 (half an acre) is an ideal easy-care property to maintain.

Inside, the renovations have preserved and even enhanced the gorgeous period features of this lovely home. The timber floors throughout are simply stunning, along with the high ceilings, the ornate cornices, beautiful lead-light glass and the many open fireplaces. The spaces flow wonderfully to create a flexible floor plan depending on your needs. There are enough rooms for up to 5 bedrooms if you need them, otherwise ideal as 3 bedrooms 2 living spaces, a sunroom and separate studio or home office.

The main living is open plan to the dining and kitchen. Here there are large picture windows that look out over the pastures and let sun flood into the space. A cosy wood fire will keep you snug in the cooler months and the reverse cycle air-conditioner will keep you comfortable all year round. A heat transfer system cleverly carries the warmth to other areas of the house.
