DESCRIPTION
Set privately above the sought-after Grasslands Estate, this welcoming country-style home, designed by a respected local architect, enjoys mountain and rural views - with a few sparkling glimpses of the ocean toward Long Beach and the Bay. The classic Australiana design, complete with wide verandas on all sides, brings the timeless charm of days gone by. As the sun shifts through the day, so do the warm, sheltered spots around the home - creating a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere that instantly feels like home.
Spread over just above 2 hectares of native gardens, the property is a haven for birds, wildlife, and anyone seeking a peaceful, low-maintenance escape. Inside, the home has been tastefully renovated, blending character and modern comfort. Soaring raked ceilings with exposed beams frame the oversized open-plan living area. The kitchen ticks all the boxes for the home chef - generous stone bench space, soft-close drawers, quality appliances, loads of storage, and a big fridge nook. It's functional, stylish, and ready to cook up a storm. There are four well-sized bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in robe and a generous ensuite. The main bathroom is spacious, with a separate W/C, and there's a built-in European-style laundry with ducted dryer - every inch of the layout has been thoughtfully planned. There's also potential for a second dwelling or dual occupancy on the property, subject to DA approval.
Comfort is year-round thanks to a fully ducted 17kW Mitsubishi 3-phase reverse cycle system. Plus, with 44 roof-mounted solar panels, your power bills stay in check. Step outside and you'll find a full-sized clay tennis court, a lit swim spa for evening soaks, and the entire area around the home can be floodlit if you wish.
Tinkerers, tradies and enthusiasts will love the American-style barn, fitted with benches, a 3.5-tonne four-post car lift, great lighting and 3-phase power. There's an adjoining 12m x 4m carport with 4.5m clearance and a concrete floor - a proper workspace, not just a shed. A second 9m x 7m carport sits in the centre of the circular drive with 3.4m clearance, ideal for a big van or boat - with room to park by the front door.
Water storage is sorted with an 82,000-litre main tank, a 30,000-litre tank, a 22,500-litre tank, and a dam for garden irrigation.
Access is easy via a sealed road and pebble driveway. You're only around 3 minutes to Batemans Bay CBD, the Bay Pavilions aquatic and arts centre, and a great selection of public and private schools. Catalina Golf Club and the Soldiers Club are just down the road, with restaurants, beaches and the marina all within a 10-minute drive approximately. Canberra is about under two hours away, and you'll hit southern Sydney in around three and a half.
If your wish list includes space, privacy, and lifestyle without compromising on convenience - this one might just be it.
