This true country gem beckons you to experience the tranquility of rural living. This uniquely rare large land holding so close to the township of Lara is spread across 25 wide sweeping acres, equivalent to 10 hectares, and features a delightful home offering a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Step inside and discover a property designed for the true country enthusiast. The heart of the home unfolds with two distinct living zones. The first is a welcoming lounge with sliding doors leading to an undercover entertaining area - an ideal space for gathering with friends and family. The open plan kitchen, second living, and dining area showcase the marriage of slate and spotted gum flooring, creating a rustic yet elegant atmosphere. In the all-electric kitchen, prepare your favorite meals on lovely stone benchtops, while an under-bench oven and island bench add a touch of modern convenience. Built-in bench seating complements the ample storage, including a large pantry and a walk-in linen cupboard. The oversized master bedroom, adorned with the warmth of country hues, invites you to start your day with a breath of fresh air, thanks to its direct access to the deck/pergola through sliding doors. Bedroom three shares this delightful feature, ensuring that nature is just a slide away. Meanwhile, bedroom two boasts its own charm with a small full ensuite, offering a cozy retreat. Venture outdoors, and you'll find a haven for country-living enthusiasts. The infrastructure includes a substantial 11m x 5m garage and workshop, a single carport, and a double carport. For the equestrians, there's a horse wash bay with four stables and a tack room. The 25 acres are thoughtfully divided into ten paddocks - four smaller and six larger sectioned off with horse shelters. Extensive fencing, mostly electric, ensures the safety of your country companions. Water won't be an issue with three large tanks totalling 100,000 litres and the availability of bore water. Established trees placed around the dwelling provide shade and a serene backdrop. For those who love a dip, there's a large indoor pool and spa to enjoy year-round.
