A Celebration of Country Living

Bring up your family in the country, pick fresh fruit and vegetables, gather eggs from your own chooks, get creative in the shed and revel in tranquil natural surroundings.

If this is the life you crave, you will be bowled over by this delightful property.

Less than 20 minutes' drive from Albany, it's a private retreat consisting of a versatile family home on a 1.2ha block with a big, powered shed-workshop, established gardens and a paddock for keeping a horse.

The charming home is very well presented, with some polished timber floorboards and a new wood fire enhancing the comfort and welcoming ambience.

At its heart is an open living space incorporating the lounge, a big family or games room and the dining area, complemented by a sizeable, paved and covered rear patio looking onto the gardens.

With ivory cabinetry, gas cooking and attractive tiling, the kitchen is a practical area with a corner pantry.

All four bedrooms are doubles, the master with a wall of built-in robes.

There's also a study, which could be a guest room as it's near the bathroom, featuring a bath, shower and vanity, and the separate toilet.

Just as the home is in great shape, so is the block – it's clear every aspect of this property has been well loved and maintained.

A major drawcard is the 11m x 7m, three-bay powered shed-workshop with high-clearance doors and a double, high carport at the front. There's space at the back for secure stowing of the caravan or other big vehicles.

The land is mainly flat, sheltered by native trees and bushes at the boundary and mostly in grass for straightforward maintenance with a ride-on mower.

There's a paddock suitable for a horse and good fencing around the house and gardens, with one section of raised vegetable beds, another with citrus, apple and pear trees, and a chicken run. A garden shed and woodshed make up the outbuildings.

Water is plentiful from a 90,000ltr rainwater tank and a bore and soak for the gardens.

The city is a pleasant drive away, the school bus passes the main road nearby and there's a general store just up the road for fuel and last-minute supplies.

Buyers hankering for self-sufficiency with good infrastructure in place may find it a perfect fit for their dream.
