Located in a highly sought-after rural area, yet close to Canberra, 225 Southwell Rd presents an exceptional opportunity for discerning buyers. This property features a fully renovated Australian Colonial style homestead and meticulously maintained open parkland paddocks, ideal for various rural pursuits.
The homestead offers stunning views across the open paddocks to the Brindabella Mountains. Its thoughtfully designed floor plan is perfect for most families, boasting multiple living areas. One of the four bedrooms, or bedsitter, is segregated with its own ensuite, making it ideal for guests, teenagers, or extended family. The gardens are low-maintenance, with many established trees.
The current owner also has fully approved plans for a substantial additional executive residence at the northern end of the block, which are available upon request.
In addition to the tandem garage under the main roofline, a modern 200m2 Colorbond shed with power and a concrete floor provides double garage parking and a large workshop area. It also offers segregated rear access for larger machinery and/or a gym/man cave. An old underground cellar is conveniently located adjacent to the shed.
The property is divided into five paddocks with quality pasture. For equine enthusiasts, there are three steel post and rail horse day yards, each equipped with Colorbond shelters.
Water supply is abundant, with an excellent reliable bore connected to a 10,000-gallon metal holding tank and reticulated throughout the gardens & to stock troughs. House supplied from 20,000-gallon concrete rainwater tank.
