If you've been dreaming of a place where life slows down, the kids have room to roam, and there's space for a few animals, a veggie garden and all the toys, then this could be just what you've been waiting for. Set on 1.41ha (3.48 acres) of flat fertile land in the sought-after Warepa School zone, this tidy brick home offers the best of country living without the hard work of a larger farm. Step inside and you'll instantly feel at home. The modern kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar and gas hob, is the hub of the home, flowing into the open plan living and dining area where everyone naturally comes together. A solid brick home with three bedrooms, a separate laundry, separate toilet, gas hot water, double glazing, two heat pumps and a multifuel fire, you'll be cosy through every season. With generous decking making it the perfect spot to enjoy your morning cuppa while listening to the birds or fire up the BBQ as the sun goes down after a busy day. Outside is where this property really earns its stripes. Whether you're a tradie, a contractor, someone who just wants to live in the country, or simply someone who appreciates good sheds, you'll be hard pressed to find better. There's a near-new four-bay shed with two lockable bays, a separate two room lockable shed, a double garage with large workshop space complete with a plumbed in stainless-steel bench & sink for fileting the fish or for scrubbing the grease off. And with four smaller sheds you'll have room for everything from firewood to gardening equipment. The flat land gives you plenty of options. Run a few sheep or cattle, keep a horse or pony, collect fresh eggs from your own chooks, or create the country garden you've always wanted. There's room to make it your own while still being manageable, and the 30,000-litre water tank, UV water filtration system plus creek water access keeps things ticking along. It's a place to put down roots, enjoy the fresh country air, and create a lifestyle that's becoming harder to find. If country living has been calling your name, now's the time to answer it.
