Home attributes
This appealing, rendered brick-veneer home is nestled in the middle of well-fenced, carefully landscaped gardens designed to attract native wildlife and offer privacy, balanced with open, grassed areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors offer commanding views of the magnificent gardens and rural surrounds.
The home boasts two large, open-plan living areas. The first is comprised of a modern, country style kitchen with locally crafted, blackwood timber cabinets, solid granite-transformation bench tops, pantry and double-sized metal-sided drawers. This overlooks a comfortable lounge area with brick feature wall accentuated by a hand-crafted, stained-glass window. The second living area is used for formal dining and entertaining. Both living spaces feature rustic floor tiles with exquisite mosaic features, with ample natural light through north-facing windows and glass doors leading to a full-length, flagstone paved verandah and patio.
The master bedroom adjoins a stylishly appointed ensuite with shower, toilet and large vanity, and WIR. A second large bedroom has a BIR and direct access to the main bathroom (bath, shower, large vanity) and a separate toilet. The third bedroom is adjacent the lounge area and also has a BIR. All bedrooms have attractive floating timber floors with the two largest having direct access to the deck via glass sliding doors. Both bathrooms have skylights.

Outdoor features
Outdoors, enjoy multiple living spaces including the paved patio covered with shade-cloth, and huge, raised timber deck overlooking gorgeous native gardens and adjacent to a paved alcove with fish pond, privacy screening and fern garden. There are various outbuildings including a double carport adjacent to a single-car, lockable garage with power, greenhouse, dog/chook run with shelter, and cubby house (currently used as garden shed).
The north side of the property features a large, biodynamic vegetable and herb garden, with 6 beds fully reticulated via an automatic watering system connected to one of the rainwater tanks, and established fruit/nut trees and vines (orange, apple, table grapes, nectarine, almond). The south side of the property has many native, established trees and shrubs with a small seasonal creek and waterfall, attracting abundant birdlife.
The home is connected to town water, with the gardens served by 28,500 litres of rainwater storage. An expandable, 2.2 kWh grid-connected solar system and solar hot water keep energy costs low. The north-facing aspect and large windows keep the living areas warm during winter, supplemented by an efficient combustion wood fire. Carefully placed deciduous trees, tinted Laserlite verandah and reverse-cycle air-conditioning cool the home in summer.
