An exceptional opportunity awaits to secure a property that seamlessly blends historical elegance with premium, purpose-built equine facilities. Set at the end of a quiet country lane on approx. 20 productive acres, this immaculately presented family residence offers an unmatched lifestyle for the serious horse enthusiast - or those simply seeking a refined country retreat. This exquisite Victorian-era home commands attention with its classic bullnose veranda and superior internal appointments. The residence is a testament to quality, featuring soaring ceilings, polished solid timber floors, and striking pressed-metal ceilings that exude timeless character. At the heart of the home lies the gourmet kitchen, complete with country-style shaker cabinetry and a prestigious Falcon stove - perfect for entertaining and everyday family living. Year-round comfort is assured by a cosy wood heater and reverse cycle heating/cooling, complemented by ceiling fans in every bedroom and the main living area. The functional layout comprises four spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious master suite with ensuite and walk-in robe (WIR), along with a contemporary family bathroom, separate laundry, and a generous, light-filled living and dining space. Outside, the dedicated house yard encloses an above-ground pool that features solar heating and variable depth (approx. 1m to 1.70m), while the charming country cottage garden offers unexpected delights for children to discover. With a nod to yesteryear, the garden also features a collector's item Furphy and a wagon belonging to the original owner - pieces that add to the property's rich story and timeless appeal. Equine Infrastructure: Superior Management and Efficiency - The 20-acre (approx.) allotment has been designed with horses front of mind, offering extensive infrastructure and excellent land use. The property is divided into eight well-fenced paddocks (electric fencing), all serviced by a central and outer laneway for easy stock movement. The professionally designed layout boasts more than 40 horse-mesh gates - you will never find yourself stuck in a corner! Water security is assured with automated water troughs and two dams, which have never run dry. Five paddock shelters, including one set up as a stable, complete this equine paradise. Working facilities include a 60m x 20m Olympic-size arena and an 18m round yard - both with Treadlite (rubber) surfaces and superior drainage systems for year-round use - four day yards, a hot/cold wash bay, and secure tie-up posts. Ample shedding provides storage for vehicles, floats, feed, tack, and equipment, making management simple and efficient. A Property with Potential Beyond Horses - While this property is a premier offering for equestrian pursuits - be it as a private training facility, commercial enterprise, or agistment business - its scope extends far beyond. With its timeless homestead, manicured surrounds, and idyllic setting, it holds incredible potential as a wedding or event venue, having previously hosted a private wedding. Animal lovers are also well catered for, with two concrete kennels with runs and a large dog yard complementing the equine infrastructure. Alternatively, it could be enjoyed purely as a lifestyle property, where the possibilities are truly endless.
