Jan Ladmore of All Real Estate NSW is proud to offer a very special property situated in Bywong. This lovely property is set up for horses and is in a great location not far from Canberra. The driveway is tarred and fully fenced. The Home: This property has a sprawling country-style family home situated nearer to the front boundary and overlooking the large dam and across the paddocks. The home consists of five bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a separate toilet, three living areas and a large entertaining outdoor decking area set amongst some magical gardens. The kitchen has plenty of bench and faces the entertaining area. The living areas all flow seamlessly and were designed with a large family in mind. The large dining room could be utilized as another living area as it leads out to a spacious and well-designed entertaining area complete with an enclosed spa room off to one side of the deck and just outside the master bedroom. The home is well insulated and there is also two slow-combustion wood fires, one in the kitchen /family room and the other in the lounge room to warm the whole home. There is 12 solar panels on the roof. The main bedroom and sunroom are at one end of the home and the other end has four other bedrooms with living areas between the master and other rooms. The entertainment deck compliments the gardens and tennis court with an amazing outlook to take in the views. The Gardens: Wow, the gardens! Not often do you find such lovely gardens on a rural property, I was very impressed with the layout and thoughtful design of these well-established cottage gardens around this home, they are very pretty, with plenty of colour amongst green lawn and space to enjoy, there are places to sit and relax, and places for children and pets to run about. Really nice. Plus......if your into a good game of chess then HELLO....the biggest outdoor chest set ever! So have fun. 😊 There are the Gardens and then there is the “Vegie Garden”: What can I say? It’s a great set-up for a home veggie patch, it is well thought out, fully enclosed & protected from pests, close to the house for convenience, the water is close and its easy to maintain. I was really impressed with this thoughtful layout and any person who loves cooking (or enjoys eating food 😊) would definitely appreciate this garden. The orchard has various fruit trees. Horse Facilities: As you drive into the property, there are two well-placed shelters with holding yards facing towards the arena. The adjoining shelters are of a good size. There is water to the yards and the horses will be happy as the property has some good soft pasture. A decent round yard is near the shelters and holding yards, working well in conjunction with the other horse facilities. There is a 25m x 50m sand dressage arena in a good position central to the property and below the house and stables. There is a shed at one end of the arena and fenced side paddocks. Shedding & Facilities A double garage is beside the house. Near the garage is a single space carport with a workshop area. An American style barn shed is near the stables and stores the horse float. There is various shedding & storage including a work-shed, tack room, tool shed, potting/green shed and the house yard is fully fenced and could be used as dog enclosure within the garden with plenty of shade, and a chook pen. The property: The property size is 7.92Ha or 19.57ac and is divided into several good paddocks for horses and stock. The plentiful grasses are soft, and the ground has good topsoil. The property itself has some level paddocks and some with some gentle undulation at the back of the block on the Brooks creek. There is an old shed towards the back of the block near the old cattle yards. Water: Water for the home is from a 100000 lt concrete tank discreetly fenced to keep from the house view and two other tanks A large dam with a good catchment, is central to the property can be viewed from the homestead and located below the home. Not only practical for water needs but makes for a very pretty outlook from the house gardens. Running through the property is Brooks Creek, it runs along the rear boundary at the back of the block. With some permanent holes through the watercourse, there is always plenty of water for stock, interesting places to walk with the pets, and is an exciting adventure for the family to have some fun and explore. Along with plenty of tap outlets, there is also a pop-up water system through the gardens at the homestead for irrigating the gardens.
