PEACEFUL AND PRIVATE

Tucked in at the top of a rise, on 2.6935 hectares of pasture, lawns and gardens, high above the picturesque Orinoco Valley, this charming two-level home, with its enchanting dormer windows, covered veranda and spacious deck with built-in seating, is constructed of macrocarpa timber, grown and milled on the property.

The views are superb, as they sweep over pasture and trees to the Richmond ranges or across gardens, lawns and trees to native bush and tree-clad Green Hill.

The warm, well insulated home comprises a formal living room, family room, open-plan dining room and kitchen, three double bedrooms, a study or fourth bedroom, two bathrooms and a laundry.

In addition to solar water heating, a wood burner with a wetback warms the house and heats the water in winter.

A wide driveway and turning bay accesses a well-constructed timber and zincalume, 3-bay implement shed and an attached 2-bay lockable workshop, with extensive workbenches, all with concrete floors and electricity. Two large fenced paddocks currently contain horses.

The property is 1km up Rosedale Road from the Thorpe-Orinoco Road turn off.
