Recently renovated and move-in ready, 4 Woods Close is a stunning five-bedroom, three-bathroom home on a 10.75-acre freehold block of gently undulating land on the outskirts of Murrumbateman village.
Already equipped with a chook pen, greenhouse, dam, animal shelter, two sheds, multiple rainwater tanks and five secure paddocks, the sizable block is ready for hobby farmers or equestrian enthusiasts to bring their property dreams to life.
Sales agent John Lennie says the property is also a fantastic contender for dual occupancy.
“You’re not just getting a beautiful modern country home here,” he says.
“You’re investing in a perfect opportunity for extended family or friends to live on the same block or setting up rental income.”
The home itself has been meticulously upgraded from floor to ceiling with top-quality appliances, fixtures, fittings and finishes, and room-controlled ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning and a fan-forced solid fuel combustion heater in the main living area. An entirely new bedroom wing brings seamless flow to the practical floor plan.
Entering under a covered timber verandah, visitors are first greeted by a bright, airy lounge room. It’s an inviting space with a breezy atmosphere, which transforms into something a little more cosy when the centrepiece wood heater is lit.
To the left is the kitchen, decked out with elegant cabinetry and sleek appliances. To the right lies a tidy study/home office, a rumpus space with its own wall-mounted TV, and a versatile sitting or playroom.
John calls this an “unpack and kick back” home, noting a sense of harmony between modern upgrades and country living.
“Little quality of life touches create an ease of living anyone would enjoy,” he says.
“Every bedroom has a built-in robe, with the exception of the designer master suite, which has a spacious walk-in. All three bathrooms are just beautiful and very luxurious.”
Outdoors is where number 4 really begins to shine. The ‘play centre’ is to die for, complete with a cubby house, balcony and rock climbing walls.
A few steps from the front deck is a central fire pit surrounded by a lush lawn. Low-maintenance gardens against the house feature white roses and deep green shrubbery.
The entire property becomes drenched in colour and surrounded by the calls of local birdlife as the sun goes down.
“This block hosts a number of century-plus-year-old native trees which attract birds of all shapes and colours,” John says.
“Sunset is breathtaking. You’re treated to a symphony of birdsong coming from parrots, finches, cockatoos, and all kinds of native birds that call this corner of Murrumbateman home.
“It’s absolutely captivating.”
On a practical note, the home’s attached carport and two sheds nearby offer plenty of storage and garaging space.
One shed is fitted with a versatile room that could be used as a second office, tack shed, or games retreat. There’s also an 11 kW solar system set up and ready to go.
Murrumbateman continues to be a favourite destination for Canberrans and Sydney-siders looking for a tree change.
“The village has undergone great development over the last few years with new shops, doctors, gyms, dentists, schools, daycares … anything you could need,” John says.
“Its social fabric is rapidly expanding, led by young and growing families looking to embrace a fashionable country lifestyle close to the city.”
Number 4 is tucked into a quiet neighbourhood populated by other large lifestyle blocks. The new owners of this wonderful home will be less than half an hour from North Canberra.
4 Woods Close in Murrumbateman is priced by negotiation in the vicinity of $1,750,000. For more information or to book an inspection, contact John Lennie on 0407 417 783.
