Because of its unique location, away from other homes and bordering protected crown land, this approx. 10 acres property has become a sanctuary for wildlife. A family of wallabies share this amazing property, regularly feeding within a few meters of the house. Kookaburras, echidnas, possums and more have found a haven among the natural bush and adjacent creek. It has distinctive rock foundations formed millions of years ago that would be one of the best examples in the Hornsby Shire. It provides a magnificent entertaining area ... with a difference. Three generations of the family have enjoyed this spectacular property. The children can experience the freedom and safety to play in Australian bushland, all on your own land with a 15 min. bush walking track. The main 5 bedroom house has been run down and requires a major renovation or knock-down/rebuild. This is reflected in the asking price and it allows you the opportunity to build your own grand design in this very special environment. The separate air-conditioned granny flat has a large main room, two bedrooms and toilet/shower. This would make an ideal temporary accommodation whilst you renovate or rebuild. Then revert to games/family room or office later. Outdoor features include in ground pool, BBQ, 3 car garage, private courtyard and views across to Glenorie. The property is a few minutes’ drive to Galston shops and only a little more to Hornsby or Castle Hill. It is only a few minutes’ walk to Northholm Grammar, or a short drive (or bus) to Redfield College, Pacific Hills, Galston High and Arcadia Primary.
