This property will absolutely delight you, right from the stone walls and gated entry ascending the drive up to the home just oozing charm and flanked with very mature plantings. A fabulous sized land holding of 10 acres split into a wonderful area around the home and a second road crossing to access the bulk of the block which is of a very even contour. Perfect for grazing, and further development. This substantial home had European inspiration by the creators, enjoys large wrap around verandas and a significant central living space which spills onto the terrace and beyond to expansive, lush lawns with decorative features that anchor the home. Accommodation is via wings, either side of the central living space. One has 2 large bedrooms which share a bathroom. The other has a main bedroom with adjoining bathroom and cosy family living room. Linked to the central living space and overlooking the pool area, is a spacious, original kitchen with pantry. The first floor has two rooms currently configured as separate sleeping areas but could be redeveloped to a master suite or further family living area. The home has an adjacent "Cottage" which provided accommodation for the original owners of the property while they built the main home. They had a love of bichon frise dogs, and that is noted in ornate stained-glass feature windows within the property. It is now a beautifully renovated expansive space, which could have many uses with an upstairs attic which offers extended living. The family will just love the recent addition of the pool complex, stone pavers surround an inground heated and self-cleaning ceramic fibreglass saltwater pool. The setting is incredibly tranquil and enjoys views back to the garden. There is more beyond all of this - but seeing is absolutely believing. In such a central Dairy Flat location with easy access to Albany, Silverdale, schools and transport networks you will not be disappointed. Join me for your personal tour.
