Property Description

Constructed around 1910 and set amidst rich, arable farmland, this charming home is a true sanctuary from the busy world. Peace and quiet abound, with morning birdsong as your gentle alarm clock. Fully irrigated olive groves and an orchard bursting with a wide variety of fruit trees complement sweeping lawns and specimen plantings, creating a private, tranquil setting to be envied.

Inside, the home is both well-presented and practical. It features three generously sized bedrooms, a central bathroom, a formal dining room, and a spacious living area - perfect for family living or entertaining. Comfort is assured with a freestanding log burner (on wetback), a heat pump, and nightstore heating. A 5kW solar system further helps to significantly reduce power costs.

Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a sheltered patio flowing seamlessly from the living area - ideal for entertaining family and friends in your own botanical oasis. Those working from home or pursuing creative hobbies will appreciate the separate studio, which can also provide additional sleeping space when required.

The established grounds offer everything needed for a self-sufficient lifestyle. Raised concrete vegetable gardens and a chicken area with coop nestled beneath the olive trees add to the idyllic country atmosphere. Mature hedging ensures the garden remains beautifully sheltered.

Packed with practical features, including garden sheds, a private well with pump shed, and a 3-bay shed with concrete floor and power. Two entrances make the layout functional while maintaining privacy and charm.

A modern three-car garage with a fully self-contained flat upstairs provides an excellent option for extended family, a long-term boarder, rental income, or Airbnb guests.

Cherished by the current owner, this much-loved property presents a rare opportunity for lifestyle buyers, retired farmers, or anyone seeking a self-sufficient rural life in a peaceful and picturesque setting.
