This much loved property on Norton Road, with its incredible views and great location is now being reluctantly offered for sale. The current owners have brought up their family here and have enjoyed their horses and all the freedom a block like this provides. The block is 20 acres of very usable land, with a substantial area of cleared grazing plus a lovely bushy corner with shady mature eucalypts. A large dam, some waterholes from an intermittent creek and a bore ensures there is plenty of water for all uses.
The colonial style brick and timber family home has been sited to take advantage of some of the best views in the district. Imagine being in your lounge room, all warm and cosy, watching your horses wandering about their paddocks. The home has 3 bedrooms, all with built in robes, as new kitchen and bathroom, and has been extended so it has a large north facing living area. All bedrooms have sliding glass doors onto the front verandah. The home is heated throughout by hydronic wall radiators in each room as well as a slow combustion heater in one of the living areas.
A small orchard, with a variety of fruit trees including plums, apricots, nectarines, lemon, olives , peaches and more is just to the front and side of the house. A stable and tack room, 4 bay farmshed and other smaller sheds add to the picture. An inground pool that had plenty of use when the children were young but has not been used for a while could be brought back into full form for the summer.
The property is located towards the Sutton Road end of Norton Road. It also has the benefit of being within walking distance of the one of the local wineries and restaurants.
So, there you have it - lovely block, comfortable house, close commute to the city and the added bonus of weekend lunches at your own local café. Call now to arrange to inspect.
