Glorious oasis with studio apartment, workshop & shedding
Offered to the market for the first time this stunning Bali-esque lifestyle property offers a lush watering hole for the family that thirsts to be nourished; to grow and to thrive in a freshing environment that provides a connection between indoors and out, between nature and comfort, work and pleasure.
Only 10 years young with an appealing mix of dark grey brick, colourbond and feature ironbark posts set within 9023m2 of flourishing established garden opening up to sculptured bushland. The workshop with 3-phase power and high clearance carport also incorporates a studio apartment with downstairs kitchenette, bathroom and loft bedroom for your teen or visitors.
Approached via a sealed road and driveway, lined by magnificent acacia and Japanse maples and circling past the house and workshop to the large machinery and storage shed beyond. Boats, trailers, caravans, equipment and machinery can all easily be manouvered and accommodated here.
The house itself instantly feels like home combining the modern build with earthy rustic elements such as the feature grade mixed Australian hardwood flooring. A double sided coonara set on a stone hearth heating both the dining and kitchen space and the lounge room with vaulted ceiling which opens up to an undercovered deck overlooking the garden and often shared with a king parrot or two. The kitchen offers solid stainless steel bench tops, a bamboo island bench for all your food prep and plenty of storage with the double pantry. The master bedroom with WIR and ensuite also opens on to a large deck for your morning meditation or yoga practice and evening debrief and calm down. Zoned separately, the further two bedrooms are generous in size and share the main bathroom and a separate toilet. Downstairs, and also accessed directly from the 2 car garage, is the mudroom/laundry and the home gym.
Outside, there is so much to explore – a fire-pit area, flat lawn for kids play, there is even a back yard aquaponic system ingeniously integrated into a children's cubby house, all ready for the new owners to grow their own trout-powered veggies to add to the thornless raspberries, plum and pear trees already established. A total of 6000 litres of water is harvested and stored in the two water tanks.
A second access point off Terara Street and zoning that allows for subdivision (STCA), this property offers potential for future development.
