Overview
Set on a substantial 2,236 square metre (approximately half an acre) freehold block with surveyed boundaries and no easements, this highset home offers a rare blend of space, practicality, and self-sufficiency. The property's generous land size ensures ample outdoor area ideal for families who appreciate privacy and room to pursue hobbies or gardening.
The home's solid lower level provides functional versatility, including an additional bedroom, office or study, and a clever storage nook beneath the staircase, allowing adaptable living arrangements. Upstairs, the beautiful timber flooring complements a kitchen thoughtfully designed with timber overhead cupboards, modern electric appliances, and a dishwasher. An open-plan dining and living space flows seamlessly onto a large timber entertainment deck, enhanced with a built-in bar and kitchen servery, framed by inviting rural vistas. This layout caters well to those who enjoy indoor-outdoor living and entertaining.
Three bedrooms upstairs, two equipped with built-in wardrobes and all fitted with cyclone shutters, emphasize security and comfort. The bathroom and separate toilet have recently been refurbished in 2024, offering updated amenities for family convenience. The property includes a single lock-up garage with adjoining laundry, adding to the home's practical features.
Outdoor facilities distinguish this residence further with robust shedding and boat storage options: a 9 by 6-metre shed featuring two roller doors (one remote-controlled) and a 10 by 7-metre boatport with generous clearance height. Established gardens benefit from comprehensive three-sided irrigation and include a greenhouse, supporting sustainable water management and gardening pursuits.
The provision of a bore with a new submersible pump, three rainwater tanks holding a total of 75,000 litres, a 3.5 kW solar system, and a septic sewage treatment system underpin the property's self-sufficiency in water and power. This combination is uncommon and advantageous for those valuing independence and sustainability in a rural setting.
While every feature meets practical needs, the property also embodies a lifestyle attuned to family living, outdoor hobbies, and eco-conscious infrastructure, making it an exceptional opportunity within Preston. Inspections are recommended to appreciate the full scope of offerings and potential.
