1400 Old Cooma Road
Googong, NSW 2620

This grand rural estate is set on approximately 14 hectares (36 acres) of gently rolling land, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial rural property with extensive infrastructure, craftsmanship, and scale, all within minutes of Googong and Queanbeyan. The property blends comfort, productivity, and freedom, featuring a large family home, expansive workshops, rich water sources, and ample space to create an ideal lifestyle or business.

The residence is a masterclass in enduring design and quality construction, spanning three split levels and approximately 575 square meters, plus a 30 square meter verandah. Built with double brick walls, jarrah roof trusses, and concrete roof tiles, the home ensures strength and longevity.

The upper level includes four generous bedrooms, a walk-in linen room, and a spacious main bathroom with a spa bath. The main suite features a walk-in robe and ensuite with sweeping rural views. The mid-level serves as the home's social heart, with a large kitchen equipped with a combustion stove, open living and dining areas, a laundry and bathroom, an ironing/study room, and a double garage. A separate room accessed from the verandah provides ideal space for an office or storage. A grand formal lounge and dining area could easily be used as a games or billiards room.

The lower level offers independent living potential with a full-sized kitchen, bar, fireplace, dining and lounge areas, cellar, bathroom, and two additional rooms, perfect for guests, extended family, or a self-contained suite. Ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, brick internal walls, and premium insulation provide year-round comfort and efficiency.

Beside the main home stands a remarkable 600 square meter double brick workshop, built with the same quality and attention to detail. It features jarrah roof trusses, concrete tiles, dual-layer insulation, and both ducted and reverse-cycle air conditioning, making it ideal for trades, business, or creative pursuits. The workshop includes offices, a lunchroom, and male, female, and disabled amenities. Vast internal areas of approximately 200 and 150 square meters combine with smaller sections of around 50 square meters, all with roller door and internal access. There is also an approved development application to extend the workshop up to 2,000 square meters.

Access to the property is provided via two separate entrances from Old Cooma Road—one to the residence and workshop, and another to the rear of the property. A spring-fed dam of around 80 million litres anchors the landscape, flowing most of the year and supported by two licensed unmetered bores and a 400-meter frontage to Jerrabomberra Creek. Bore water is distributed across the property through underground piping to fill storage tanks. The rear boundary backs onto a biodiversity stewardship site, which cannot be developed.

Additional infrastructure includes a 150 square meter machine shed, a 150 square meter hayshed/feeding shed, a log cabin of approximately 35 square meters, and a BBQ area by the creek. The property has 30% mature tree coverage providing privacy and shade.

The property operates efficiently with a combined 55kW solar system expandable for battery storage, two power meters with an option for a third, and septic systems for both buildings. Roof water is collected and filtered for household use, and modern connectivity is provided by Starlink internet for fast and reliable service. Both buildings were tested with no asbestos present, and the stone-walled gardens and fountain add a timeless charm to the setting.

Googong is one of the region's most desirable lifestyle destinations, offering a perfect balance of country living and modern convenience. The property is just 10 minutes to Queanbeyan and 30 minutes to Canberra's CBD, combining seclusion, accessibility, and long-term value. Large, well-improved rural holdings so close to the city are increasingly rare. Whether seeking a multi-generational home, rural retreat, or business base, this estate delivers the infrastructure and freedom to bring plans to life.
