Set amidst the grounds of what was once one of Winnaleah's most renowned farms, this property is now enveloped by mature, established gardens featuring a blend of native plants, mature and exotic trees, and its own orchard. This much loved family home has been in the family for over 80 years. The current owners are now offering the baton new occupants, inviting them to enjoy and continue the legacy of this century-old home.

Entering through the sweeping driveway surrounded by mature trees, a sense of what is to be found inside is immediately imparted. Adorned with original period features, including blackwood ceilings, timber wainscoting, tall ceilings, and blackwood fire surrounds and mantels, this home has an unmatched country style grandeur. It comprises four spacious bedrooms, each offering views of the lush gardens. The principal bedroom is particularly grand, boasting ample space and a decorative chandelier. A broad entrance hall connects to each of the bedrooms, the formal living room, and the central bathroom. Spiral stairs lead up to the fourth bedroom and an adjoining office space.

The kitchen enjoys warmth from the cosy wood fire heater and offers plentiful storage space, plus extra storage courtesy of the walk-in larder and numerous cupboards. Adjacent to the kitchen is the separate laundry, equipped with an additional shower and more storage. Two sliding doors open from the kitchen and dining space to a second, light-filled living area, which seamlessly connects to the gardens. Offering a generous footprint and unique versatility, the flexibility of this floor plan provides scope for additional bedrooms if required.

Externally, the approximately 3-acre property is encircled by mature gardens. Outbuildings include a spacious 7-bay implement shed and a double carport. Additional conveniences include solar panels, bore water, and 3 megaliters of water from the Winnaleah Irrigation Scheme. Within a short, fifteen minute commute from the world-class Derby mountain bike network and with close proximity to Winnaleah District High School, this home is the perfect place to raise a family and continue the legacy the current owners have created over so many years.
