'30 minutes and you're home': Ultra-modern masterpiece with 150m of river frontage

This stunning Yass Valley property offers the best in rural living - and it’s just 30 minutes from Canberra.

MARQ Property licensed agent Sam McGregor says the 26-acre property at 6 Kurrajong Lane, Manton, has around 150m of river frontage and stunning views that would rival any postcard.

“It’s set on some of the best country we have ever seen because it’s got beautiful views and river frontage," Sam says.

The beauty continues inside the four-bedroom, two-bathroom home.

“The owners really spared no expense building the home,” Sam says.

“With high-end finishes, they’ve included everything you could possibly want to have in an ultra-modern, comfortable home in the country.”

The home was built in 2022, making it an almost new-build so the next owner can move straight in. It features an open-plan living-dining room with expansive windows to take in the surrounding views.

“It has beautiful high-end finishes with a stunning colour and texture palette,” Sam says.

“You’ve got polished concrete floors, a lot of external timber for the facades, and a neutral colour palette, which makes it feel like an earthy, homely, ultra-modern home.”

The master suite is absolutely second to none, Sam says, with a master bedroom that's twice the size of a standard bedroom. The bedroom opens onto a double ensuite featuring double shower, a freestanding bath and dual vanities.

The home is well set up for temperature control with double-glazed windows and doors throughout the house and heated floors underneath. There’s also a slow-combustion fireplace to keep you cosy when the mercury drops.

Fans in the bedrooms and reverse cycling air-conditioning mean you can customise the indoor temperature in the warmer months.

Additionally, a 19.5kW solar system, Tesla batteries and a water tank all help you live sustainably.

Sam says the home is perfectly located for Canberrans wanting to make the move to rural living.

“It's a little bit further than Murrumbateman but not as far as Yass," Sam says.

"Which means you’ve got access to all the amenities of Yass, but you can just duck out onto the highway and you’re back in Canberra in about 30 minutes.”

According to Sam, it's a strong alternative to living in suburban Canberra, even for those who want or need to continue working in the city.

“To me, it’s a really appealing rural lifestyle property. If you want a couple of horses, it’s perfect for that, or a small farm with some cattle or sheep to have fun with on the weekend, rather than a farming venture.”

The home is located in Walgrove Estate. Walgrove was a historic cattle farm in the 1800s before it was subdivided.

“There’s probably only 15 properties, give or take, that are part of this community," Sam says.

“What that means is it’s got a very high-end feel. It’s highly sought-after.”

Number 6 Kurrajong Lane, Manton, is for sale by negotiation.
