DESCRIPTION

Spacious, country home on two acres, right on the edge of Molong. Thirty minute drive to Orange with everything you need. Make it yours!
Within walking distance to the local school and a short drive to the small town of Molong, this is a great location for a family wanting to move into town from further afield or relocating to the country. A welcoming community, health centre, small supermarket, chemist and other shops provide for basic needs whilst only 35 minutes away Orange has some lovely cafes as well as larger supermarkets, private schools and much more.
Completely renovated (literally) from the ground up this 100 year old wattle and daub home has been enlarged and modernised for family living. For those who enjoy the beauty and character of older homes some lovely original features remain such as rustic door frames, brick work and two fire places. The rest of the home has been made completely new: A large kitchen/ dining space with island bench and dishwasher and an adjoining family room. Lovely French doors enable this shared space to be closed off from the rest of the house. A huge central hallway/room with two glass sky windows and pitched roof exposing timber beams, could be used as a playroom, piano or office space. Two huge bedrooms for the children, and another next to a cosy sitting room with original open fireplace. The home has a clawfoot bath with overhead shower, toilet and laundry in one spacious room as well as a practical entry room to store muddy boots and coats.
A brand new fireplace in the kitchen/dining area for heating, and ceiling fans in the bedrooms and kitchen help with cooling. In addition, the home has been fastidiously insulated with glass wool under floors, and in the ceiling and walls. With an intent to maintain the character of the original home, the ceilings are high with ceiling roses, period cornices and skirting boards. Wool carpets in the bedrooms and polished cypress floor boards throughout plus some other quality features provide lasting value.
A gently sloping, cleared backyard gives the option for a horse or the pursuit of other hobbies!! The property boasts a huge shed (8 x 16m with 4.2m wall height) which has been insulated and is ready for a partial conversion into a granny flat or office space should one wish. Plum trees, apple and pear trees are established.
There is scope for beautiful gardens and landscaping as well as flexibility in the layout of this home to make it well worth viewing and considering.
