Please note: This property will go to auction on Sunday, February 2nd, 2025, as part of our Summer Showcase Auction Event held at the Hyatt Hotel Canberra. The first open home will be scheduled for Saturday, 11th January 2025.
If you're looking for a manageable hobby farm on approximately 10 acres, complete with a well presented six-bedroom homestead, you've found your dream property!
Located in sought-after Wallaroo, just 5 minutes from Hall and 30 minutes from Canberra CBD, this property is perfect for families seeking an easy rural lifestyle.
The single-level homestead features a full wrap-around verandah and is rich in character, showcasing natural timbers and featuring sandstock bricks. Lovingly maintained and beautifully presented, it offers five bedrooms plus a study, alongside a spacious open-plan living area that connects to the updated kitchen, all with stunning views of the gardens and surrounding countryside.
The easy-care grounds surrounding the home are thoughtfully designed, blending gardens and open green spaces with well-established mature trees. Beyond the house paddock, there are four well-fenced paddocks with quality pasture, providing ample space for horses, large pets, or horticultural endeavors. Water is abundant here: three rainwater tanks service the house, studio, and shed; two dams cater to gardens and animals; and there's a registered bore for stock and domestic use.
No hobby farm is complete without good shedding, and this property does not disappoint. The large, high-roofed shed (9m x 10m) features workshop space, a concrete floor, power, and three roller doors. Adjacent to the shed is a newly lined two-story studio with two separate rooms, a kitchenette, bathroom, living room, sitting room and air conditioning-approximately 80m? (the shed and studio are approved as sheds).
If you've dreamed of a country lifestyle whilst working in Canberra, this property is a must-see. Don't miss this rare opportunity to enjoy a rural lifestyle so close to the city!
