Set behind a sweeping driveway lined with mature exotic trees, this remarkable 16.5-acre property invites you to start a new chapter in the Southern Highlands. Nestled in a private, gently undulating landscape, the residence captures a unique blend of rural charm, lifestyle versatility, and historic legacy - including Wangaruka Berry Farm. The home itself is a solid 1970s brick veneer and tile-roofed residence, freshly painted inside and out, with new carpet in the living areas and bedrooms. Expansive wrap-around verandahs frame the home, providing peaceful views over the gardens and acreage beyond, and the layout offers both comfort and functionality for a modern family.
The heart of the home, the large open-plan kitchen, retains its original charm with Aga wood stove, electric cooktops, walk-in pantry, and ample storage - perfect for daily life or entertaining. Two large living/family rooms connected with a fireplace provide space for entertainment, family gatherings or quiet reflection. Four well-proportioned bedrooms plus a study/sunroom provide room for family or guests, with the master suite offering an ensuite and step-in robe. Bathrooms and toilets are original but functional, and a self-contained unit above the garage provides potential for guest accommodation, home office, or short-term rental.
Step outside and discover the true magic of this property. Over 16 acres of gently undulating land are framed by perimeter fencing, paddocks, and mature trees. Blueberry bushes and fruit trees hint at the property's storied past as a working berry farm, while legacy infrastructure like water tanks and machinery sheds make practical projects possible immediately. A spring-fed main dam, never empty, and a second rainwater-fed dam provide year-round water for irrigation, livestock, or equestrian use.
