Escape to the country with this inspiring estate spanning 110ha (271 acres) just 10minutes drive from Gundaroo Village. With a commanding hilltop position the residence affords panoramic rural vistas and is enveloped by beautiful established landscaped gardens. With a solar passive design, families will appreciate the two separate living areas, master suite with sitting room/library and generous sized secondary bedrooms, each with garden views. Double glazed windows and doors are an essential these days while the Eureka wood stove in the lounge and ceiling fans throughout the home will ensure year-round comfort.
Stepping outdoors to the courtyard and you will be mesmerised by the inspirational views across the surrounding farming land and the Yass River valley beyond. The commitment and thought the current owners have invested into the design of the gardens, has paid off with extensive plantings creating a private oasis where you could easily wander for hours admiring its beauty. With a mix of deciduous and evergreen plantings there is always an impressive display of colour - a garden for all seasons.
'Pickwick' is a special property which will appeal to those seeking a farming property to graze, ride horses or just immerse themselves in nature yet still be within an easy 40 minute commute to Canberra. The 110ha is spread across 9 paddocks and there's excellent water with 10 dams, with garden water reticulated from a bore and large dam close to the house. While 'Pickwick' is lovely as is, there's also the potential to subdivide (subject to council approval) meaning you could house the kids too down the track. Gundaroo village is only a short 10 minute drove away and offers all you need with its local shop, excellent primary school, celebrated cellar door and award winning restaurants and eateries.
Don't miss your chance to secure this superb rural estate distinguished by undulating hills, open pastures, lovely forest section and creek line to explore.
