Comprising 107 acres of undulating, picturesque countryside, centered around a north-facing four-bedroom brick residence. Abbots Brae presents a genuine New England lifestyle opportunity, located just 10 minutes from the regional hub of Armidale. The property enjoys a private, elevated rural setting with the majestic Mount Duval as its backdrop.
Constructed in 2006, the home showcases quality finishes throughout, a testament to the design and investment made by the current owner. The open plan layout connects the kitchen, dining, living, and sitting areas, creating a warm and inviting space designed for everyday family living and effortless entertaining.
The country-style kitchen features hardwood timber benchtops, profiled shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a central island prep bench, perfectly combining practicality with charm. Adjacent, the north facing sitting area is bathed in natural light through expansive windows, enhancing the sense of space.
The main lounge is spacious and comfortable, anchored by a double sided wood heater and finished with plush carpets underfoot. Accommodation includes four well sized bedrooms, all with built-in robes. The master suite functions as a private parents' retreat, complete with walk-in robe, ensuite, and French doors opening to the sun drenched courtyard.
A dedicated office provides the flexibility to function as a fifth bedroom if required.
The main bathroom is designed in a three way configuration, offering a clawfoot bath, shower, separate toilet, and heated towel rails for added comfort.
Additional features include a heat transfer system to efficiently circulate warmth from the fireplace and solar hot water via evacuated tubes.
Outside the home is beautifully finished with unique touches including locally manufactured Cedar feature doors, a sandstone paved courtyard and concrete slate inspired slate tile roof.
The home's exterior is framed by established, low maintenance gardens, thoughtfully planted with ornamental pears, structured hedges, and seasonal plantings. Outdoor entertaining is effortless, thanks to a purpose built covered alfresco area with inbuilt pizza oven(imported from Italy), BBQ area, and stunning exposed timber rafters.
A four bay garage provides secure, powered parking along with ample workshop or storage space, easily accessed via a formed gravel driveway.
Abbots Brae's acreage is a balanced blend of productive grazing and stands of native eucalypt hardwoods that gently roll down to a private stretch of Puddledock Creek, providing clean water for livestock, recreation, or simply soaking up the tranquility of rural living.
With the current owner relocating, Abbots Brae now awaits its new owners.
