Tucked away on approximately 25 acres and just 15 minutes from the CBD, 43 Ponts Road is the kind of property that quietly takes your breath away.
Home to the same family for nearly 60 years, it offers that rare combination so many buyers dream of but rarely find - genuine rural serenity paired with the everyday convenience of being close to town. Whether you're drawn to the idea of a hobby farm, a horse property, a produce-growing lifestyle or simply a peaceful family escape with room to move, this property has the bones and the space to make it happen.
The 4-bedroom brick home has a warmth to it that's felt the moment you walk in. It's a home that has been well loved and well lived in and it shows in all the right ways offering a cosy, homey feel rather than a cold showroom finish.
The spacious main bedroom is complete with ensuite, ceiling fan and hydronic heating offering a private retreat at the end of the day, while the remaining bedrooms are equally generous in size, each fitted with built in robes and their own hydronic heater for year-round comfort.
At the heart of the home is an eastern facing kitchen, thoughtfully modernised without losing character, featuring stone benchtops, a custom rangehood over the slow combustion stove and gas cooktop, a gas oven, a walk-in pantry and a separate preserves cupboard - ideal for the home cook or anyone keen to make the most of the property's own orchard and vegetable patch. Exposed timber ceilings and cork flooring run throughout, adding texture and warmth, while the loungeroom, with its oil heater, air conditioning and soft downlighting, is made for cosy nights in. A separate formal dining room captures the same beautiful outlook as the kitchen, flowing out to a deck draped with an established ornamental grape vine, the perfect spot for long lunches, quiet mornings with coffee or simply watching the light change over the paddocks.
A dedicated study and a separate storage room add flexibility for work, hobbies or family overflow. It's worth noting that while the kitchen has been beautifully updated, the rest of the home retains its original, homely character. It's completely liveable as is, with a main bathroom in great condition, and the added convenience of a bidet toilet and shower in the laundry, but there's plenty of scope for the new owner to add their own stamp if they wish.
Step outside and the potential of this property really opens up. A four bay lock-up garage with electric roller doors sits beside a versatile storage room that could easily become a tack room for horses or a dedicated wine store, plus there's a separate workshop complete with its own toilet and sink for those who love to tinker, create or simply need their own space. For anyone with cattle or a rural lifestyle in mind, the property is already well equipped, with working cattle yards and a crush, a hay shed and cow bale ready to go and gravity-fed water troughs to every paddock. Water security here is a genuine standout with three dams, a bore, and numerous rainwater rainwater tanks with a combined approximately 130,000L capacity supplying the home and water troughs and giving real peace of mind whatever the season. Wander further and you'll find a mature orchard offering pears, apples, peaches, nectarines, figs, plums and a variety of berries, alongside a vegetable patch, a charming bird aviary and a kids' cubby house tucked into the garden, the kind of details that turn a property into a place where memories are made. The level, approximately 1-acre house yard, included within the total 25 acres, provides a private, family-friendly setting, while the surrounding acreage offers space to breathe, explore and grow into over time.
Properties like this offering land, lifestyle, water security, established fruiting trees, quiet mornings and genuine serenity all within easy reach of town don't come up often.
43 Ponts Road is ready to be enjoyed today, with plenty of room to make it your own for years to come!
