Set amongst 5501m2 of beautifully established, park-like gardens, 98 Bournda Road is a home with genuine character and a wonderful sense of space. From the crepe myrtles lining the driveway to the home beyond, there's a lovely sense of privacy and calm that feels perfectly suited to its Wallagoot setting.
Step through the spacious entry and the home opens into a beautiful, light-filled living space. Soaring ceilings, exposed timber beams and feature gable windows give the room its character, while concealed uplighting highlights the roofline and creates a lovely ambience in the evenings. Large windows and doors bring in an abundance of natural light and connect the living areas with the gardens outside.
The kitchen sits at the heart of the home with stone benchtops, gas cooking, an electric oven and a large walk-in pantry. The adjoining dining area is surrounded by windows overlooking the gardens, while the sunny lounge with its own bar provides another relaxed space to sit and enjoy the outlook.
All three bedrooms have their own ensuite, a feature that makes the home very comfortable for family and guests. The master is generous in size, opening directly onto the main deck with an open ensuite featuring above-bench stone basins. The breezeway leading to the master is one of the home's more unique features, with glass louvres on either side and a calming water feature running beneath. Bedroom two also enjoys direct access to the deck, whilst bedroom three has access to a private sitting area at the back of the home.
There's a separate sunny study, reverse cycle air-conditioning, a wood fire and ceiling fans throughout for comfort, as well as a generous laundry/mudroom with plenty of storage and space.
Outside is where this property really comes into its own. The large covered deck overlooks the heated mineral pool and level lawn, with plenty of room for an afternoon wine, a long Christmas lunch or simply watching the kids enjoy the pool and gardens. The grounds are beautifully established and full of birdlife, with kookaburras, magpies and colourful parrots regular visitors. There's also an orchard with lemon, mandarin, apple and lime trees, along with a covered vegetable garden with raised beds.
For anyone who loves a good shed, studio or workspace, there is a triple garage with two bays providing vehicle accommodation and the third has been converted into a workshop, with plenty of room to make it your own. There's also additional shedding at the rear of the property.
Set separately towards the back is a cabin with its own covered deck, three rooms, along with a separate office. While the cabin is not approved as a dwelling, it provides a versatile space for visitors, hobbies or working from home.
The property is well set up for its two-acre surrounds, with an approximately 90,000L water tank as well as a bore - ideal for keeping the gardens watered and topping up the pool. The home is insulated underneath and throughout, has gas hot water, and there's even an outdoor sink by the back entrance, perfect for cleaning the day's catch after an afternoon on the lake.
And then there's the location. Scotts Bay is approximately 2km away, Wallagoot Lake and Bournda National Park are virtually on your doorstep, Tathra is an easy drive for the beach and a coffee, and Merimbula is close enough for everything else.
This is a truly beautiful home and a lovely place to live.
