First impressions of this glorious acreage are simply impressive – hidden along a private valley the modern house appears as you’re driving in, set high overlooking the stunning rural surrounds. It does not take long to realise the quality of the acreage, boasting a timber post and rail entry fence, landscaped gardens and extensive gravel driveway with a circular entrance and covered parking at the house level.
The location is one of the best you will find in the Wollombi Valley. It is approx. 5.4km (6mins drive) to the Wollombi Village cafes, tavern and shops, or 8km (10mins drive) to the Laguna Trading Post, Primary School and community pool. The general area is popular with Sydney siders, with this property being approx. 1hr 20mins drive to Wahroonga/Sydney.
Set upon 30 acres (12.14ha) of RU2 zoned land, the property has an ideal mix of arable grass valley floor and lush mountain bush land with many striking sandstone rock features throughout. Having enough pasture for some horses or other livestock make this an ideal hobby farm for anyone looking to do the permanent lifestyle change to the country. While there is a generous amount of pastured land, the property is also relatively low maintenance and easy to care for with a good ride on mower – meaning it is an ideal weekender style property as well. Located at the end of a driveway with no through traffic, the property guarantees total peace and privacy in your own hidden sanctuary.
Stepping inside the home, you will continue to be impressed, featuring high raked ceilings and large windows flooding the house with light. Views out of the north-facing windows capture the essence of the beautiful rural landscape the house sits proudly within. The spacious open plan living/dining room includes a slow combustion wood fireplace, ducted air-conditioning and gorgeous light oak flooring throughout. Adjoining this is a generous kitchen with marble benchtops, 900mm oven, dishwasher and electric cooktop.
Three bedrooms are situated on the upper floor of the split-level home, with all of them having built in robes and the master having an ensuite. The large main bathroom includes a freestanding bath and double vanity. An internal laundry provides convenient rear access from the house to the double carport.
One of the many quality fittings of the home is a substantial solar system (approx. 9kw) as well as solar hot water with gas backup. Mains power is connected, though the solar system keeps the bills to a minimum. There is approx. 100,000L of water storage tank capacity around the property with RFS standard fittings and a dedicated firefighting tank.
A large farm/machinery shed is insulated with power connected and a double carport attached, with an extra high roller door for farm equipment, ideal for anyone with lots of toys needing a big shed. The property is well designed in terms of layout, with multiple driveways making it easy to get around with trailers or trucks not having to turn around.
A highlight of the property is a special pocket of the valley floor totally hidden away from the house area, where the Bellbirds thrive among wombats, wallabies and Lyre birds in abundance. The back valley has easy 2WD access, ideal for camping in a private setting away from the house area. An interesting feature of this part of the property is a large handmade stone wall with a fireplace inset, already providing the perfect campground BBQ area.
