People who love the natural environment and dream of bringing up the family on a few acres will find all they need at this idyllic 2.87 ha (7.09 acres) holding with a two-storey homestead, sheds and good grazing pasture for sheep or horses.

Zoned General Agriculture, the established hobby farm promises a tranquil country lifestyle, yet it’s only 10 minutes from the centre of town and a couple of minutes from a major shopping centre with a Woolworths supermarket and Bunnings warehouse.

Tucked away from the road behind a pocket of native vegetation, the Hardiplank and Colorbond home enjoys privacy and a stunning outlook over the block and beyond to rural land, bushland and Mount Martin.

Inside, timber is the hero in floors, window frames, stairs and balustrading.

A wood fire in the newly carpeted lounge also heats the adjacent dining space, while the good-sized kitchen has gas cooking, a wall oven and dishwasher.

French doors from the lounge lead out to a sizable, covered deck, which extends around three sides of the house for sheltered outdoor living options.

Also on the ground floor is the laundry and a bathroom, while a shower room upstairs serves the three bedrooms – two big singles and the master a king-sized room.

New carpet is fitted in the bedrooms and the upstairs hall, where there’s also a study.

About half the land is in bush and the remainder is the grassy house block and a fenced paddock of lush grazing land. There’s plenty of scope for running few head of livestock and keeping chooks, while the natural setting is enhanced by abundant birdlife and a family of resident kangaroos.

Water is plentiful from a permanent freshwater creek flowing near the far boundary and three rainwater tanks supplying the house and gardens, including an orchard of avocados and mixed fruit trees.

An 8m x 6m shed with power, a two-bay carport, an open, high-clearance machinery or general purpose shed and a woodshed make up the outbuildings, all of which are in good condition.

This is an exciting opportunity for those with a penchant for hobby farming to start enjoying a country lifestyle many would envy.
