'The Woods/1A Woods Close Murrumbateman, 2582 NSW
'The Woods' 36.72 Acre Block – 5 Minutes to Murrumbateman Village - 8 Bedrooms over 2 Residences
Forested properties come with an exhilarating sense of Australiana, adventure and discovery.
Aussie native woodlands have a fabulous set of natural atmospherics that quite simply can't be found anywhere else on the planet.
You'll never see a burly echidna trundling across your path in London, or trees peppered with white cockatoos in Berlin.
Located just 25 minutes from Canberra and 4km from Murrumbateman village, 1a Woods Close not only provides you with a broad set residential flexibility, it's also secluded without being remote.
With a total of 8 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 17 covered car spaces distributed over its 2 dwellings this amazing tardis of a property suits a big extended family, or a large family looking to create income via a cottage lease option.
Firstly, the 352m2 main residence comes with 5 bedrooms including a 45m2 master bedroom with a large walk-in-robe and ensuite, 2 additional bathrooms and an 81m2 open plan living area with direct connectivity to a massive 82m2 covered alfresco deck with its views over the gardens and kids play area.
Additionally, there's another 55m2 sunken TV lounge/sitting room that's an ideal segregated breakout zone for the kids.
The home's country kitchen features plenty of meal-prep space, storage and large walk-in-pantry.
Secondly, the 224m2 cottage provides you with 3 bedrooms, an eat in kitchen and a 28m2 living room with its own foot warming fireplace. The views over the forested block from the cottage's 75m2 covered deck are superb. Whether it be during the early hours at dawn, or the stillness of sunset, this is the place to watch the resident mob of roos over a great coffee.
1a Woods also has a great array of sheds.
One of these is a nostalgic c.1950/60's relocated ex-schoolhouse that has a large school room area and 3 end rooms for the teachers where they would have dispensed both kind guidance, and a disciplinary 6 cuts of the best. It's a reflective experience mulling over how these walls once echoed to a chorus of Advance Australia Fair and God Save the Queen.
Whilst there's also an array of utility sheds including a barn, the 36x6m 6 bay farm shed takes pride of place. There's plenty of space for your trucks, caravan, boat and cars.
The Wood's magical 36.72 acre freehold block is all about privacy and adventure. With timbered blocks you let nature set the lifestyle course; you just fall into line with nature and enjoy yourself. There's room for walking, biking and horse riding, and it's also ideal Dorper grazing country if you want to graze a few sheep.
Yes, there's also enough cleared spaces to add stables and other equestrian/livestock infrastructure too.
To help you settle in, there's a list of farm maintenance items that stay with the property as inclusions to the sale.
Essentially, there's a lot happening at 1a Woods Close, but there's plenty of scope for you to add your own personal touches.
If you have a larger active family that enjoys being part of nature, 1a Woods Close is for you.
