Most people drive out to The Rock for the view. This family gets to wake up to it.
Set on 40.25 acres right at the foot of The Rock Nature Reserve, this is the kind of place you start picturing your life in before you've even parked the car. Kids on bikes down the drive. Horses in the front paddock. Long lunches that turn into longer evenings while the light turns the rock face orange.
The 2024 renovation and extension has done something clever here. It hasn't erased the old homestead, it's given it a partner. On one side are high raked ceilings, a wall of glass and a kitchen made for actually cooking in, with a butler's pantry to hide the chaos. On the other you get ornate ceilings, French doors and the kind of character you can't buy new. One house gives you two moods, and both have a view.
There's room for everyone, and room to get away from everyone. Five bedrooms plus a sleepout, two bathrooms and a second living area so the kids can have their own space. There's a wood heater for winter nights, and ducted heating and cooling throughout so the seasons never get the upper hand.
Outside is where this place really earns its keep. A big covered alfresco sits between the two wings. Over by the shed there's a second entertaining area with festoon lights, pointed straight at The Rock like it was built for sunsets. Add a 14 x 6m powered shed, a half court, a fenced house yard, a dam and open paddocks running up to the bush.
And when Monday comes around, Wagga is only 20 to 25 minutes away for work, school and everything else. It's just a very different drive home.
