An entrance that is stately, the circular driveway through double gates – you know this substantial family home has a lot to offer and explore. Sweeping veranda’s embrace the elevated, north facing brick home of 4 double bedrooms and generous living areas. Each room captures a different aspect of the gardens, creating a calming environment, inviting you to stay and sit awhile. This home is balanced, very private on 1.02ha of parklike gardens, yet just minutes from the township of Shearwater. Independent to the home, a granny flat of 2 bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and laundry adjoins the double garage, games area, office and 4th toilet. Surrounded by expansive lawns, established trees, garden rooms and a small orchard of various fruit trees, vines and fruit shrubs, developed and nurtured over 20 years, the property is a rural retreat that is peaceful and endearing. 3 useful garden sheds for potting, propagation and storage with an additional workshop/ studio secretly nestled amongst the orchard. A home of significant size with options of Air BNB and private residence for the extended family. Some updating may be needed but this is a substantial home. Take the time to explore this well designed and custom built property that you may never want to leave.
