20 Acres: Two 8* Homes: Stables: Creek: Perfect City Escape or Rural Retreat

This beautiful property has so much to offer the discerning buyer. The main house on this glorious 20 acre grazing property was extensively renovated in 2015, and a brand new two bedroom home was added. Both dwellings offer incredible 8 star energy efficiency; they are both north facing, super insulated, double glazed, creating the perfect opportunity for easy and low cost multi generational living, home business or accommodation income. This unique property was designed by Light House Architecture and Science to accommodate three generations in an idyllic rural setting. In addition to achieving an 8 star energy rating, the project received a commendation in 2017 in the ACT Architecture Residential Alterations & Additions.

With multiple water supplies, modern sheds and established brick horse stables, it's ready to stock and move in. The creek is a wonderful bonus, offering domestic water rights, and there is a stock reserve filled with wildlife and offering a buffer from the highway on the north eastern boundary The main house has been designed for busy family life, with a flexible floor plan that offers extra living or accommodation depending on your needs.

You will love the airy cathedral ceilings, earthy tones and natural materials throughout this country style retreat. Natural brick and wood glow in the sun that floods in the large north facing windows that run the entire length of the house. With a beautiful slow combustion Nectre fireplace and floor to raked ceiling library in the main living area, you will not find a cosier room to spend an afternoon as you watch the shadows lengthen on the rolling hills beyond. The kitchen offers a large dual oven Falcon range, island bench of recycled Tassie Oak designed by Thor's Hammer, and excellent storage with an adjacent generous dining area that creates the perfect focal point. One end of the home houses two bedrooms and a large multipurpose room currently used as a TV room - perfect for the kids to entertain friends. The kids wing also contains the main bathroom, with freestanding tub and separate toilet. There is loads of built in storage, pelmets on most windows and blockout curtains to maximise comfort. The main bedroom is positioned at the opposite end of the house next to the living area and a small study nook, and is part of a suite including a walk through robe and generous ensuite, providing the perfect parents' retreat. The pocket doors which enclose the two sections ensure privacy and quiet for both ends of the house. Running almost the entire northern elevation is a steel pergola which is covered in wisteria from late Spring, providing protection from the summer sun and creating a beautiful shady spot for a cold drink. The second home is as delightfully light-filled, and offers contemporary open plan living, a sunny north facing terrace, plush carpets and two good sized bedrooms. The two homes share a large and useful laundry room come boot room; perfect for muddy boots, dogs, and tack.

There is also a greenhouse and garden shed in the separate, fully fenced veggie yard. Three water tanks offer a combined capacity of 170 kilolitres of water storage - you will never run out of water for the house or for stock.
