Solid home on 1 acre allotment
Located on Plummers road on a wonderful, large allotment of 4000sqm (1 acre). This parcel of land is separated into several yards and pens, specially fenced to house an array of native and introduced animals and the perimeter fencing is a specialty, chain link, high clearance barrier, with electric top wire, designed to keep predatory animals out and protected animals safe.
A cluster of eucalyptus trees were planted some years ago to attract Koalas, these also provide ample shelter across several of the enclosures. The front garden is very well established and has been cleared of several aviaries, hutches and small enclosures, however, the garden would respond well to a hefty prune. There is also a beautiful, significant Camellia tree situated in the front garden along with a hefty fig tree, two immense palms and several other established plants and shrubs.
The formal entrance to the home reveals high ceilings, hardwood flooring and lead light detail surrounding the door. The two front bedrooms, both also offering hardwood flooring are both of good proportion, likely being the first original rooms of the home. Along the entrance hall is a walk in storage closet which is quoted as being the original bathroom.
The entrance hall leads through to the lounge room which offers tiled floor, original fire place (currently not in use) and ducted heating system (currently not operational) plus wall mounted air-conditioner. The master bedroom links off from the lounge room and offers large proportion, tiled floor plus eight door width floor to ceiling robes.
The kitchen and combined dining area features a rich timber Alby Turner & Son kitchen, which offers a lifetime warranty. There is a built in combined Chef Electric oven, griller and microwave, double stainless steel sink, large copper range hood and the floor is tiled. Toward the rear of the home is the bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. Hot water is provided by a gas instant hot water system.
The large shed, measuring approx. 14m x 14m is partially lined and offers six separate sections including rumpus room, lined craft room and ample storage including mezzanine storage. Rain water storage is ample with two x 27,000 litre tanks (approx) and 4 x 2,500 litre tanks (approx). Providing a total of some 64,000 litres of rain water catchment (approx).
The home consists of the original stone section, mud brick render and later rendering, plus a double brick extension completed in the 1980?s. The home offers part return verandah and good privacy screening behind the well-established front garden.
All in all, a wonderful, large offering perfect for animal enthusiasts with infrastructure already in place or first home buyers and prospective purchasers looking for a lifestyle property offering peace and privacy.
***Please note - The property does require a clean-up, walls washed and painted, and the bathroom would respond well to renovations, however the home is livable and functional.
