204 Back Creek Rd, Gundaroo NSW 2620, Australia

This property is all about the spectacular North East facing views over the valley and the whole of Gundaroo with fields and hills beyond. You truly will be mesmerised by the beauty of the countryside!!

 

There are two separate homes on this wonderful block, providing a great opportunity for an astute investor or the owner/occupier wanting a second dwelling for additional income or for a generational family that needs the extra space.

 

The main residence is in much need of renovating! It provides you with the opportunity to put your own design and flair into creating a show stopper that this home deserves to be! There’s also a separate three bedroom brick veneer home with a separate entrance and driveway.

 

Set on 54 acres with a perfect mix of pastures and a shelter belt of mature eucalyptus gum trees running into open paddocks as well as 5 dams.

 

Location wise you are literally only 15-20 minutes to Canberra or 30 -35 to CBD with scenic country driving.

 

 

MAIN HOUSE:

 

 

A double brick four bedroom home where every room at the front of the house soaks up the views. The main lounge/family room has a two way centre builtin fireplace with a glass opening door.

 

The house is in need of renovating. However, strip back the carpets, polish floorboards and a fresh coat of paint would certainly freshen it up whilst you decide what to do with the old kitchen and 2 bathrooms which whilst dated are perfectly functional.

 

Heating wise the double sided wood burning fireplace provides low cost hydronic heating via radiator panels throughout the house. There’s also a large solar hot water system. With 20 solar panels on the roof, there’s a 5.2 KW grid solar system (only 5 years old) that is grid-connected keeping the electricity bills down to a bare minimum.

 

The gardens are kept nice and simple with an expanse of lawn to ensure that it captures the jaw dropping views. Plus there’s a small fruit tree orchard

 

Currently there is an old above ground 15 metre pool with a deck that needs a little extra work or replace it with a new drop edge pool. Imagine sipping a cocktail overlooking the most beautiful countryside so close to Canberra! There’s also a spa overlooking the valley.

 

Car accommodation wise, there is a double garage with adjoining lean to carport, plus there’s an oversized carport on the side of the house and a parking portico at the front of the house.

 

 

SECOND HOUSE:

 

 

Lots and lots of options!

-Earn an income and rent it out

-Move in whilst you renovate the main house

-Ideal for parents or family to live on same property as you

 

This three bedroom home is a great second dwelling on the property. It has its own separate entrance and driveway making it nice and private from the main house. It also has 2 concrete water tanks and separate electricity.

 

It’s currently rented out at $400 per week with the current lease ending in May 2021. However, the current market should fetch $425-450 per week in rent.
