Close to the exquisite village of Gundaroo. Never before sold. Mature windbreaks of trees and mixed hedges around improved pastures. Exquisite avian life on a working farm. Previously a thoroughbred horse breeding and sheep property, 271 Sibley Lane Gundaroo presents a rare opportunity to secure a well-established rural property just minutes out of Gundaroo. On soon to be (July 2023) all-bitumen access roads, the property is an easy 30 minute commute into Canberra's inner city, from a quiet tucked-away location. The residence was built in 1981 on architect-designed passive solar principles. Set in expansive mature deciduous gardens, it has a downstairs living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and dining area with a further three upstairs bedrooms. Orientated northwards, the slate floors capture the sun's rays and heating through the colder months via a slow combustion heater. A 5Kva off-grid battery solar system has just been installed in the last 2 years, meaning no power bills and independence. Other highlights are 5 dams which service most of the 5 paddocks, a shearing shed and machinery shed plus horse shelters with day pens. An uncommon chance.
