Relaxation Elevated: Unwind with the best seat in the house

Set on 53 hectares of high-quality productive agricultural lands with river frontage, this incredible property at 2248 Yass River Road, Yass River, makes the most of its stunning location.

Known as Riverdale, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is located 35 minutes from north Canberra and a stone’s throw from Murrumbateman.

“This is an opportunity for the lucky new owners to have a turnkey property with all the wonderful benefits of rural lifestyle – the peace and the serenity – in a standout design,” says Ray White Canberra Licensed Sales Agent Chris Dixon.

The main kitchen has a 5-metre Cesar stone island benchtop, auto-touch-operated doors, an inbuilt Miele pyrolytic oven, steam oven, and combi oven, while a butler’s pantry the size of a ‘normal’ kitchen means there will be no shortage of bench space.

“It’s an entertainer’s home,” Chris says.

“The kitchen was designed as the focal point, where family and friends can gather and admire the jaw-dropping views.”

The home is set along the Yass River and overlooks the rich alluvial flats, the landscaped gardens and the rolling hills of Yass Valley beyond.

Glass stacking doors give easy access to a vast covered deck of around 200 sqm overlooking the backyard and the six-person spa.

“This property is particularly appealing because it rests on a long stretch of Yass River,” he says.

“There are beautiful sections of the river with rock faces and rock pools where one can swim, fish and have picnics.”

The property is connected to the grid with a 12.5 kW solar system. It also features 200,000 litres of rain tank storage, a Davey 3-stage water filtration system and riparian rights.

“The new owners will not only appreciate the rural lifestyle on offer, they may also want to use the space for horses or explore primary producer status with cattle and sheep,” Chris says.

Riverdale also boasts a four-bay machinery shed, a chook shed, vegetable gardens and a recently built firepit.

“There is a real sense of serenity, which is delivered by these expansive views right down the Yass Valley,” Chris says.

“You almost feel like you’re floating above the Yass Valley.”

Chris says Riverdale is a ‘must check out’ home for families looking for a community where they can settle into or those looking to have a rural lifestyle.

“You’re on 53 hectares, so there is really good separation between the adjoining properties and enough room for everyone to have their own space,” Chris says.

“This a perfect lifestyle property – it is peaceful and quiet.”

At under an hour’s drive to Canberra’s northern suburbs, you can enjoy the best of both rural living and city convenience.

“For Sergio and Kelly, the current owners, this is where they unwind and leave the day’s stresses and frustrations behind,” Chris says.

“It is their quiet space, which allows them to spend quality time with each other.”

Sergio and Kelly are selling the property with extra inclusions, meaning the spa, a quad bike and tractor, and other creature comforts come with the beautiful build.

“Riverdale means the next owner can walk in, add any furniture they want to bring and be ready to go from day one,” Chris says.

2248 Yass River Road, Yass River goes to auction Saturday 20 April 10am.
