Nestled in a peaceful area, yet within walking distance to McHughs Forest and the Darfield Domain and Recreation Centre, this delightful property strikes a perfect balance between rural tranquility and community convenience.

The main house is a stunning two-storey, four-bedroom home, designed for both comfort and style.

This culinary haven flows seamlessly into the dining and living area, perfect for entertaining family and friends. Adjacent to this is a warm and inviting lounge, complete with a log burner on wetback, which beckons you to unwind. From here, step into the sunny conservatory, an ideal space to enjoy your morning coffee or relax with a good book.

Ascend to the upper level, where you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, complemented by a versatile hobby or rumpus room ideal for various uses, from a playroom to a home office. The property also features two well-appointed bathrooms, one conveniently located on each level, ensuring comfort and privacy for all family members. The other two bedrooms are located on the ground floor, as well as a large, separate laundry with excellent storage capacity.

In addition to the main residence, this property boasts a separate, self-contained two-bedroom cottage. Accessible via its own entranceway, this charming cottage features an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, complete with a heat pump for year-round comfort. A delightful veranda extends from the cottage, inviting you to bask in the tranquil surroundings.

The external features of this property are nothing short of impressive. The large outdoor entertaining area or sunny patio are perfect for summer barbecues, while the beautifully landscaped gardens provide a serene backdrop and ample privacy, thanks to established plantings and hedges.

You will appreciate the two garden sheds, a tunnel house, a glass house, and raised vegetable beds alongside a small orchard - perfect for those wishing to cultivate their green thumb. The property also includes two paddocks, allowing for additional flexibility, whether for pets or small livestock.

Vehicle access is exceptionally convenient with a double internal access garage, a separate double garage with power and a workshop as well as a large carport attached to the rear. An additional carport with a taller eave height further enhances the property's functionality.
