Tucked behind the beloved tree-lined approach of Common Road, just off the Hume Highway, this special 25-acre holding offers the rare chance to slow your pace, stretch your imagination and create something truly your own.
Character cottage
'Bimbimbi' is full of charm and honest workmanship, the cottage carries the warmth of history, lime-washed walls, recycled timbers and handmade touches that make every corner feel unique. It's a place ready to live in now yet inviting those with a creative eye or a renovator's touch to restore and reimagine its next chapter. Morning light filters through greenery to the covered stone terrace, creating the perfect spot for coffee, conversation or a sketchbook. It's a space where an artist, gardener or maker will feel instantly at home.
Land with potential and infrastructure in place
Gently undulating paddocks frame the property, dotted with old trees and working structures that tell a story of self-sufficiency and rural life. Two dams and a bore provide reliable water for stock and gardens, while fencing divides the land into manageable paddocks ready for horses or livestock. A two-bay stable, classic shearing shed, and a collection of farm outbuildings give the property real function and flexibility, whether your plans lean toward equestrian pursuits, a small rural enterprise or simply enjoying space to move and grow. With ample scope to shift the building envelope (STCA), you've got the freedom to imagine a new home, studio or workshop while keeping the character that's already here.
Setting meets access
Turn off the highway, follow the tree-lined drive and you'll feel the hum of the world fade away. Yet you're only ten minutes to Yass, twenty five to Murrumbateman and an easy run into Canberra or the Riverina. Peace, and privacy without losing connection.
Vintage township, creative heart
Set at the foot of historic Bowning Hill, a landmark noted by explorers Hume and Hovell back in 1824, this area has long inspired those who work with their hands and dream in wide-open space. It's country living with a creative soul.
Lifestyle possibilities
Whether you're chasing a tree-change retreat, space for horses, a small-scale farm or a rustic base for your craft or trade, 55 Common Road gives you the platform and the pace to make it happen.
