Set on a beautifully established 8,717sqm block in the heart of Murrumbateman, this timeless country residence captures the charm of classic mid-century design while offering the comfort and warmth of a true family home. With its soaring ceilings, light-filled interiors, and lovingly maintained cottage gardens, 10 South Street is a home that radiates soul, space, and serenity.
Welcome home, to 10 South Street, Murrumbateman.
Privately set behind mature trees and flourishing gardens, the home presents with understated elegance - its façade framed by flowering plum and pear trees, wattle and gum, and an established orchard that shifts colour with the seasons. A dam at the front of the property adds to the idyllic rural appeal, offering increased water storage for stock or gardens, ambience, or the potential to be filled for increased useable space at the front of the property.
Inside, the home embodies warmth and functionality. The main living room is defined by tall, peaked ceilings and exposed timber beams - a hallmark of its architectural era - creating an airy sense of space and light. A north-facing aspect ensures sunlight streams through the large windows, bathing the living and bedroom areas in natural warmth.
The layout is generous and well-considered, featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two master suites, each with walk-in robes and private ensuites. The primary master, added as part of a later extension, offers an expansive retreat-style space ideal for parents or multigenerational living. Two additional bedrooms are serviced by a large central bathroom, ensuring comfort and practicality for family or guests.
Living spaces are plentiful, with a formal living and dining area complemented by a casual dining zone that adjoins the kitchen. The original kitchen - functional, spacious and perfectly in keeping with the home's classic charm - offers the ideal base for a modern refresh while maintaining its retro appeal.
Outdoors, the home continues to impress. Established cottage gardens wrap around the residence, dotted with flowering garden beds, native shrubs, and mature trees. To the rear, an attached covered patio provides additional entertaining space, along with a detached paved patio or carport - while the large four-car steel garage ensures ample room for vehicles, storage, or workshop use.
Sustainability is a highlight, with two oversized poly water tanks, an unmetered bore supplying all external water needs, and a large solar system ensuring energy efficiency year-round. The block's size, layout, and infrastructure provide scope for further improvement, expansion, or simply the chance to enjoy the peaceful rural lifestyle it already offers.
Blending architectural character, established beauty, and everyday functionality, 10 South Street represents a rare opportunity to secure a lifestyle property that feels like home the moment you arrive.
