There's something special about a home that instantly makes you slow down.
Perhaps it's the rolling green hills stretching into the distance. Perhaps it's the quiet country mornings, the horses grazing peacefully in the paddocks, or the knowledge that this is a place where life can be enjoyed at a gentler pace.
Whatever it is, this charming country cottage captures it beautifully.
Proudly presented by Carolyn Drane - Acreage & Lifestyle Property, this much-loved property is now ready for its next chapter as the current owners have simply outgrown what has been a wonderful place to call home.
Set on approximately five picturesque acres in the heart of Clifton Creek, this unique lifestyle property offers an opportunity that's becoming increasingly difficult to find: an affordable acreage with established equine infrastructure, character and room to create the lifestyle you've been dreaming about.
Pumpkin's Rest - Originally known as the Bowden Homestead, the charming three-bedroom cottage sits proudly on an elevated ridge, taking in sweeping rural views across undulating farmland towards Mount Taylor.
Rich in country character, the home welcomes you with a traditional front verandah, a cosy wood heater for the cooler months, gas cooking and a warm, inviting atmosphere that reflects its heritage while offering comfortable everyday living.
Outside is where this property truly comes into its own.
Thoughtfully established for horse breeding, training and breaking, the infrastructure allows you to move in and immediately enjoy the property while adding your own personal vision over time.
