Located in the ever-popular Jiparu Estate, just 20 minutes from Canberra's north, Stonehaven gives you an ideal mix of an easy commute to work, and an exclusive place to tuck yourself away on weekends with family and friends.
Stonehaven is a confidently composed echo of our true Australian way of life. It's a cleverly amalgamated property that bundles 2 homes, an indoor swimming pool, garage/workshop shed, and large block of land into 1 sensational lifestyle package.
Stonehaven's main 460m2 45-bedroom homestead with its textured stone block and corner quoin construction, enveloping bull-nosed verandahs and extended architectural perspectives is quintessentially country in both look and feel. It effectively captures the local rural spirit.
The home's long list of spatial features covers a massive 64m2 open plan kitchen, dining and family/lounge room, 4 spacious bedrooms with robes including a fully segregated 30m2 master suite, a home office or 5th bedroom, and a 30m2 rumpus/living room.
All this available space creates uptake flexibilities, and the rumpus/living room could be used as the master bedroom's parents' retreat. This would give you a massive 60m2 of master bedroom area.
The modern country-style kitchen has plenty of stone-topped meal preparation bench spaces, soft-close cabinetry storage spaces, and excellent appliances.
Stonehaven's fully detached 60m2 stone block coach house studio provides you with the perfect large family or future rental income solution.
Designed to visually harmonise with the main residence, its layout spans a kitchen/meals/living area, laundry/storage room, 18m2 bedroom & ensuite, has its own house water tank, car parking pad, and is separately power metered from the main house if you ever choose a lease option.
If you're into aquatic fitness and poolside entertainment, there's a 16x6m Colorbond pool shed that houses a fantastic 12x3m heated lap pool and sauna. The pool is 1.4m deep and has easy access steps, making it ideal for any age group.
Stonehaven's magical 3-acre block is ideal for horses and other larger animals or extending the existing range of fruit trees. It's mostly cleared of trees except for a mini privacy forest along the front boundary. Interestingly, one of the larger trees is a Federation era beauty that would have been a reedy sapling back in 1901.
Garaging and weekend tinkering wise, Stonehaven's main residence has a whopping 60m2 attached garage, and there's a 9m x 6m Colorbond double garage/workshop adjacent to the home and studio.
Essentially, Stonehaven is a superbly presented country property and the beginning of your new life story!
