LAND
16.16ha (40 acres). If there is a perfect location for a Mount Pleasant lifestyle property, then this is surely it. Positioned just out of town, this slightly elevated position provides serenity and outlook over the property that cannot help but be admired and enjoyed. Being on the Western side of the township nearing the Mount itself, the property receives a more than serviceable amount of rainfall, which is supported by one large dam and two smaller dams. The property has been established to provide any number of recreational hobbies, be it animal husbandry, horse riding, grazing and others. The land is fenced into five paddocks, each with their own usability and characteristics, from gum studded land, natural watercourse, lightly timbered section and more all on gently undulating fully usable land. The home surrounds begin at the entrance, where wooden fences and an automated gate provide a welcome homecoming. Deciduous trees line the driveway, which extends past the home, and the domestic fruit orchard to the amazing shed.
RESIDENCE
The architect of this home had an obvious vision, which included the merger of size, character, individuality and family living standards. Specialised brickwork, Oregon and slate are the three major components of this most impressive double storey home. An entrance foyer separates the two very large downstairs living areas. The first incorporates a large bay window, which is most appropriate when considering the outlook. The first of three split system units is positioned here and is vented through to the kitchen. The second large living room has quite a formal feel and with the casual meals area suitable enough for a large dining suite, there is versatility in this layout. A Coalbrook Dale cast iron wood heater is just one of the many features of this home. The kitchen exudes country charm, however has a dishwasher and a walk in pantry that contains a small area suitable as a cellar. Completing the lower level is the bright floor to ceiling tiled laundry, third bathroom and fourth toilet. The centrally positioned stairwell leads to a landing area, which serves as a study nook or reading area. A unique and special design feature is the access to balconies from all the bedrooms. A choice however needs to be made as to which bedroom to use as the main, as bedroom one includes a very nice ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom is very large and steps out onto a balcony that takes in the best of the views over the property. All three bedrooms have built in robes. A study provides a fourth bedroom option. The angles, high pitch of the ceiling and amazing amount of storage options and beautiful leadlight features all contribute to make this home special. In all over 32 squares of living including up to four bedrooms, three bathrooms, large living areas and so much more.
IMPROVEMENTS
Adjoining the home is a large undercover outdoor entertaining area with attractive lattice work. It is however the incredible shed that will ‘seal the deal’. This fantastic structure is a 48ft x 30ft, Colorbond, steel framed beauty. Three high clearance automated roller doors, full concrete floor, impressive lighting and large mezzanine loft that is another entertaining area in itself. This is not just a ‘man cave’, it is a garage, workshop, storage and entertainment facility in one. Further shedding is by way of a structure ideally suited for poultry, while a substantial section of the property is perfect for animal husbandry. Facilities include a 20ft x 14ft galvanised iron shed with concrete floor and power, huge undercover section which is lockable, the old dairy and more plus the cattle yards and loading ramp. It is apparent that this property can certainly accommodate many interests. Naturally there needs to be a good supply of water. The large dam supplies water to a header tank, an enormous 30,000 gallon concrete and 3 x 5,000 gallon poly tanks store more than enough water.
