Overview

Experience the tranquility and charm of rural living at 705 Axe Creek Road, nestled on an expansive 5-acre property that offers a blend of natural beauty and practical living. From the outset, the property enchants with manicured paddocks, a scenic dam, and mature gum trees, setting a peaceful rural backdrop complemented by grazing Dorper sheep that enhance its pastoral appeal.

The home is thoughtfully positioned to take full advantage of breathtaking 360-degree views, providing stunning sunsets visible from the broad veranda with elegant Merbau decking—a perfect spot for relaxation and enjoying this vista. Inside, the residence is impeccably maintained, featuring three sizeable bedrooms that offer comfortable accommodation for families or those seeking space for guests.

Two distinct living areas afford versatile spaces for entertaining or quiet leisure, while the kitchen is equipped with high-quality Bosch and Asko appliances, ensuring functionality for everyday living and culinary pursuits. The recently renovated two-way bathroom includes a spa bath, adding a touch of luxury and wellness. Enhancing the home's comfort are high 2.7-metre ceilings, new carpeting in select areas, ceiling fans, and a split-system for heating and cooling, supplemented by a combustion wood heater with fan-assisted heat transfer to the main lounge to create an inviting atmosphere year-round.

Built with year-round comfort in mind, the property includes comprehensive insulation across floors, walls, and ceilings, and a substantial 6.5kW solar system that supports sustainable living alongside ample water storage solutions. This tech-savvy country home also benefits from NBN connectivity, allowing residents to stay connected without sacrificing the peaceful lifestyle.

Practicality extends beyond the house with two large powered sheds ideal for tradies, hobbyists, or car enthusiasts needing space for vehicles, machinery, or boats. One shed offers three secure roller-door bays, a dedicated workshop, and a separate electrical sub-board; the other spans roughly 7 by 14 meters, featuring four bays, automatic roller doors, concrete flooring, and comprehensive shelving and storage options.

The property's extensive grounds are equally impressive, with maintained lawns, a rose garden, fruit trees, improved pastures, and mature gums. Well-designed fencing with accessible internal gates facilitates easy movement within the property. Additional amenities include a sizeable one-megalitre dam, 72,000 liters of water storage, a chook shed, and a dog yard, all contributing to the rural lifestyle appeal.

With its generous outdoor space, quality infrastructure, and the potential to expand the residence (subject to council approval), this versatile country home offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a peaceful rural retreat that balances comfort, functionality, and charm.
