DESCRIPTION

This property offers stunning country views across the Fingal Valley, with elevated vantage points that capture the breathtaking landscape. Just a short walk from the local school and town center, its location is both peaceful and convenient.

Having been in the same family for over 70 years, this property presents a rare opportunity. The possibilities for new owners are endless – whether you choose to move in and enjoy the serene surroundings, run a hobby farm, live on-site while building your dream country home, or rent out the existing house.

Spanning approximately 10 acres (3.92 hectares), the property is divided into six paddocks, two of which feature Pinus Radiata trees aged over 60 years, offering potential income once harvested. St Patricks Creek runs through the land, forming the boundary with the neighboring school.

The two-bedroom weatherboard house, complete with a sunroom, dates back to the early 1900s. In 2001, the rear of the house was demolished and upgraded, with new wiring, plumbing, kitchen, and bathroom. The weatherboards were replaced with flexboard for durability. The bathroom features a walk-in shower, bath, hand basin, and toilet. The living area includes a freestanding wood heater and internet connection.

A short external covered walkway connects the laundry and second toilet, which are attached to the house. This space also includes additional storage for garden tools and equipment. A charming, original small dairy shed with a split-shingle roof sits in the garden area, alongside several fruit trees that offer a lovely natural backdrop. The house and garden are sheltered from the wind by a macrocarpa hedge on the southern side and myrtle trees on the western side.

A large steel shed (9.2m x 7.5m x 2.8m), located just 20 meters from the house, features two sliding doors, a concrete floor, and a shearing board at one end. The shearing plant can be left in place if desired. Attached to the shed is an additional bay with sheep handling yards and a loading ramp.

Other outbuildings include an older garage, carport, and small workshop, situated near the steel shed. The property, offering complete privacy and no close neighbors, is located at the end of Newman Street. A gravel driveway (approx. 300 meters) leads from the entry gate to the house.
