The appeal of this Wamboin property starts at its driveway with semi-mature trees and continues all the way to the luxurious modern home.“We sell a lot of properties in the area and this is a great example of a contemporary home,” <a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/ray-white-bungendore/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ray White Bungendore</a> Sales Agent <a href="/agents/ava-merriman/">Ava Merriman</a> says.“It’s luxurious, over-the-top beautiful and modern, and it has a lot of space for yourself and your family.”<img alt="33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272-image-0-20240311011721590168-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="599" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272-image-0-.width-800.jpg" width="800"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">33 Lumley Road</a> has two parts: a main house with more than 440 sqm of floor space and a self-contained three-bedroom unit.“The layout in the house is excellent, especially if you’ve got a family,” Ava says.“It’s got plenty of open-plan spaces, as well as some secret spots that are perfect for when you need a quiet moment.”Across the main house and separate unit are seven bedrooms, including a master bedroom in one wing of the home with a large walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious ensuite with dual basins and dual shower.“It is a fantastic example of a top-end ensuite,” Ava says.The other three bedrooms in the main house and the three bedrooms in the unit also feature built-in wardrobes.The living room has a large slow-combustion wood fireplace with a stone-crafted floor-to-ceiling chimney to keep everyone warm, while there are hydronic heated polished concrete floors throughout the home.End-to-end windows on two sides of the living room and 2.7-metre double-glazed sliding doors give expansive views across the valleys, dams and the northern tip of the Brindabella Ranges.<img alt="33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272-image-0-20240311011722254399-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272-image-0-.width-800_6wEparz.jpg" width="800">Principal <a href="/agents/doug-merriman/">Doug Merriman</a> says the rural lifestyle is at its best in Wamboin.The small community was joined by this nearly new home in 2020, which was then improved in 2023.“Historically, the area was a sheep farm for many decades,” he says.“It’s now a beautiful green valley with a lot of beautiful homes and it has one of the most picturesque views around.“Wamboin is very popular with people looking for a lifestyle change.“There’s a lot of horse riding and hiking opportunities, and there’s a tight community with events like trivia nights, a car club and community markets.”But the next owners won’t need to leave their property to get active – an outdoor playground with a cubby house, slippery dip, swings and sand pit will certainly serve as the perfect place to entertain youngsters (but who says adults can’t go on a slide?).The property is part of a water scheme, with more than 350,000 litres of non-potable water supplied, and it also comes with a 112,000 litre and a 108,000 litre Colorbond rainwater tanks.<img alt="33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272-image-0-20240311011726932644-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272-image-0-.width-800_lO76tZZ.jpg" width="800">For Ava, all of these features come together for a rural retreat.“It is a property where you can have the best of both worlds,” she says.“This is an opportunity to have a lifestyle property where you can have acreage – maybe a few sheep or cows, too – while being close enough to town to get a takeaway for dinner or to commute to Canberra and all of its wonderful facilities.”“You can have that lifestyle where you’re not on top of your neighbours, but also have access to the great Canberra schools.”The 2.88-hectare block also features a 12 x 24-metre shed and a heated pool.“The apartment is a big bonus to this property, and it would lend itself to multi-generational living,” she says.“A mother- or father-in-law could live in the unit, or teenage kids could use it as their own space.”33 Lumley Road, Wamboin is for sale between $2,680,000 - $2,740,000.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/33-lumley-road-wamboin-nsw-2620-97272/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/over-the-top-luxurious-home-is-one-of-wamboins-best/753858" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

Luxurious rural retreat on sprawling Wamboin property

It was East Coast versus West Coast at the auction of 2/21 Walls Creek Road East, Goobarragandra, NSW, on the weekend, as a couple from Sydney and a couple from Perth battled it out for ownership of the extraordinary property known as the ‘Earth House’.In the end, a Sydney couple looking for a ‘weekender’ claimed ownership, purchasing the off-the-grid property near Tumut, NSW, for $2.15 million.<img alt="2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-2720-93633-image-0-20240_c10eETK-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-.width-800.jpg" width="800">Featured on Foxtel’s Grand Designs, the house was built into the side of a hill at Goobarragandra by Canberra couple Trevor and Jeanette Robinson. The home’s sustainable features and breathtaking design – the roof is made of earth and grass – drew “phenomenal interest” in the marketing of the property according to sales agent Jane Macken.“It was the most interest I’ve had in a property ever,” Jane says.“It came from right across Australia. More than 60,000 people viewed the listing, which resulted in more than 200 enquiries.”<img alt="2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-2720-93633-image-0-20240_EQOPlMQ-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-.width-800_7l32C1i.jpg" width="800">In the end though, it came down to a couple from Perth who had seen the home on Grand Designs and viewed it via FaceTime, and a couple from Sydney who’d driven to Goobarragandra to inspect it twice. Bidding started at $1.95 million, with the Sydney couple claiming ownership at $2.15 million.LJ Hooker agent Andy Greenberger scored the Earth House listing after previously selling a Rivett property owned by Trevor and Jeanette Robinson. He pulled Jane Macken in on the listing for her NSW selling expertise.“We’ve spent almost every weekend out at the house, showing people through,” Jane says.“It was hard work, but the result is just outstanding.”<img alt="2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-2720-93633-image-0-20240_GRR0Hnf-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-.width-800_snYl1S1.jpg" width="800">According to Jane, the Earth House was designed to be wheelchair-accessible and off-grid, with two water tanks, an off-grid 15 kVA inverter, solar panels and a 30.8 kWh premium lithium battery bank. Its location, carved into the side of a hill, offered views down to the river and beyond, and gave it “ultimate privacy”.The Earth House was sold with all of its custom furnishings.“This is the kind of home you will never see again,” Jane says.“Every inclusion is top-notch. There are polished concrete floors all the way through and it flows really well.<img alt="2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-2720-93633-image-0-20240_JMzulhb-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-21-walls-creek-road-east-goobarragandra-nsw-.width-800_apVaWIP.jpg" width="800">“The kitchen boasts stone bench-tops, a Miele convection oven, a Teppanyaki hot plate, a two burner electric hob, an integrated dishwasher and custom joinery.”The home’s built-in solid timber dining table was a highlight for those who inspected the property, along with the home’s floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows.In addition to the main house, the property boasts a bedsit with kitchenette, accessible bathroom, double carport and a garage with a mezzanine level.

Solid Australian Yellow Stringybark timber lines the floors of the open-plan kitchen and living area, while double French doors open out to the 8ft verandah and covered outdoor area to watch the sunset.<img alt="21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image-0-20231016010305869402-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image.width-800_Gyv8WC9.jpg" width="800">The home&#x27;s established gardens include an ornamental creek.“The home has a great country feel to it,” Denver says.“The way the current owners have done the decor – the kitchen, the high ceilings, the fireplaces, the timber floors – that really evokes the country feel.“It doesn’t feel like a typical modern brick veneer home.”<img alt="21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image-0-20231016010307558993-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image.width-800_Rx8KnsP.jpg" width="800">Denver says the acre block offers the best of country charm and city convenience, with easy access to shops and other attractions in Braidwood.“The main thing with Willow Tree is the location,” he says.“This property has a rural feel to it, but there are town conveniences – you can easily get the paper, get a coffee or go to the supermarket.“You don’t get that sense of being jammed in, which is a big change for a lot of people that may be coming from a big city.”<img alt="21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image-0-20231016010309009741-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="435" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image.width-800_wFNYgYj.jpg" width="800">The block features a 9m x 9m workshop and a bay shed, both of which come with a sealed concrete floor, power and roller door access.“It does have a big yard, but it is low maintenance,” Denver says.According to Denver, the home is perfect for families looking for a larger home, retirees looking for a slower lifestyle or those on acreage looking to downsize.<img alt="21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image-0-20231016010310389536-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453-image.width-800_GE9DbHS.jpg" width="800">“It would suit people of all different ages.”With sustainability and comfort in mind, Willow Tree also comes with tank water, a 5 kW solar system, a slow-combustion wood heater, an open fireplace and ducted heating.Willow Tree is for sale for $1,350,000.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/21-solus-street-braidwood-nsw-2622-88453/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/braidwoods-big-white-house-this-rural-property-with-historic-significance-isnt-like-all-the-others/712670" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Riotact</a>.

There are also several sheds, including a Colorbond 10×10-metre farm shed with power and auto-roller doors.The home is located a short drive from Goulburn, meaning it offers a combination of a quieter lifestyle with easy access to city comforts.“Goulburn is very much a growing regional centre,” Garry says.“You’re so well located – it’s two hours from Sydney, an hour from Canberra.“You’ve got all the functions of a big city, like a new hospital, shopping centres, major stores and good employment prospects.”<img alt="1344-middle-arm-rd-middle-arm-nsw-2580-87957-image-0-20231009004722890573-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="599" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/1344-middle-arm-rd-middle-arm-nsw-2580-87957-i.width-800_PA0AiuF.jpg" width="800">Garry says this would be the perfect opportunity for someone hoping to leave a city or looking to downsize from a larger block of land.“This property has location and lifestyle,” he says.“The serenity and enjoyment of a rural lifestyle can be found here easily.”1344 Middle Arm Road, Middle Arm, goes to auction at 11am on Wednesday 8 November 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/1344-middle-arm-rd-middle-arm-nsw-2580-87957/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/26-acres-of-peace-and-quiet-and-quality-rural-living/710690" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Riotact</a>.

And if you want to relax after a long day, dip in the jacuzzi or cool off in the 12m in-ground swimming pool.<img alt="murrumbateman-2582-nsw-78142-image-0-20230821054646826601-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/murrumbateman-2582-nsw-78142-image-0-202308210.width-800_249Eim3.jpg" width="800">The three-car garage offers internal access and the property features four dams, five paddock shelters and six fenced paddocks.“The home has 360-degree views down to the paddocks and then out the back to the Brindabella and Springrange mountain ranges,” Sophie says.If the new owners can tear themselves away from their new home, they&#x27;ll find Canberra just a 40-minute drive away.<img alt="murrumbateman-2582-nsw-78142-image-0-20230821060147196042-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/murrumbateman-2582-nsw-78142-image-0-202308210.width-800_MxgdUZp.jpg" width="800">“I can see a family that wants to live in close proximity to Canberra but who also definitely have an interest in horses, really enjoying this property,” she says.“This property provides a country lifestyle, but people can still come into the city for schooling or work.“It’s pretty special that you can feel so far away from life’s stresses but be so close to a big city.

“It’s set on some of the best country we have ever seen because it’s got beautiful views and river frontage,&quot; 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.”<img alt="6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0-20230503004645558906-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0.width-800_Vsd1PXi.jpg" width="800">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.”<img alt="6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0-20230503004642197733-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0.width-800_HW9JKo2.jpg" width="800">The master suite is absolutely second to none, Sam says, with a master bedroom that&#x27;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.<img alt="6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0-20230503004643411625-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0.width-800_UEArSsS.jpg" width="800">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&#x27;s a little bit further than Murrumbateman but not as far as Yass,&quot; Sam says.&quot;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.”<img alt="6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0-20230503004643162005-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0.width-800_emdlLr6.jpg" width="800">According to Sam, it&#x27;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.<img alt="6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0-20230503004646218732-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259-image-0.width-800_sAkJcuw.jpg" width="800">“There’s probably only 15 properties, give or take, that are part of this community,&quot; Sam says.“What that means is it’s got a very high-end feel.

Roads leading to the property are sealed.The property slopes gently towards the Yass River and is relatively flat, meaning it can be used for a wide range of activities, depending on your interests.According to Miriana, Anneslie offers total freedom for its new owners to decide how they want to use the property, knowing they have a rural lifestyle with the best of modern creature comforts as the foundation of anything they want to do.<img alt="162-yass-river-road-manton-nsw-2582-76230-image-0-20230301214636449653-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/162-yass-river-road-manton-nsw-2582-76230-imag.width-800_lBA3ld9.jpg" width="800">Prospective buyers have enquired about having animals on the property and working in Yass, Miriana says.“If you wanted to have some livestock, you can; if you wanted to have horses, you can. It’s a really flexible lifestyle home.“It just depends on what you want.&quot;She says there is also an upstairs area that can be converted into a home office for those looking to work from home.“It’s got everything you need. It’s got entertaining areas, it’s got a pool, it’s got room for kids to play, it’s near the road, close to Yass but the Canberra side of Yass.”<img alt="162-yass-river-road-manton-nsw-2582-76230-image-0-20230301214633191705-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/162-yass-river-road-manton-nsw-2582-76230-imag.width-800_EenmZDQ.jpg" width="800">Anneslie could become the perfect tree change for someone looking to shake up their post-pandemic life with new challenges and new experiences, Miriana says.Number 162 Yass River Road will be auctioned at 4.30pm this Wednesday 22 March 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/162-yass-river-road-yass-nsw-2582-76230/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/indulge-your-imagination-and-rural-dreams-in-this-stunning-house-amid-rolling-paddocks/642961" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The RiotACT.</a>

Murrumbateman is totally showing off with this incredible home on six acres

The huge turnout to the first <a href="https://zango.com.au/developments/woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Woodfield Hills</a> open day reflects the growing demand for rural lifestyle properties with an easy commute to the city.More than 100 registered groups flocked to the site of the new subdivision at Bywong, located on the northern fringe of Canberra.Ten lots in Stage One of Woodfield Hills estate will go under the hammer on at 2pm on Saturday 16 July, and selling agent Chris Dixon from Ray White Canberra is expecting strong bidding.“There’s a real shortage of land within 30 to 45 minutes of Canberra,” Chris says.“This is really within the golden circle, offering rural living but with a comfortable commute to the CBD.“We’ve had strong interest from the get-go, because there’s nothing else like this on the market.“Particularly after COVID lockdowns, people are wanting to get out of town and secure a bit of that rural lifestyle.”<img alt="woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621-184-image-0-20220609055948191483-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="450" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621-184-ima.width-800.jpg" width="800">With block sizes ranging from 6.7 to 16 acres, Chris says there’s something to suit families, young couples and empty nesters seeking space and tranquillity close to the capital.“These are bigger than the blocks you&#x27;d normally find in and around Canberra,” he says.“As well as having space to have chooks, horses, vegie gardens, and for the kids to run around, you’ve also got privacy.&quot;There’s room for sheds, outbuildings or dual occupancy.&quot;Some of the blocks are level, with deep alluvial soil on the flats overlooking Black Joe’s Creek, while others are elevated, taking in spectacular views over farmland to the Brindabella Mountains. Most lots boast stately yellow box trees.<img alt="woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621-184-image-0-20220609055948058917-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="450" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621-184-ima.width-800_PVbd2rg.jpg" width="800">Chris says the blocks that back Black Joe’s Creek offer sensational spots for families to picnic and get back to nature, with echidnas, wombats, red robins and wedged-tailed eagles regular visitors.“The blocks are definitely ideal for families, and writers or artists would find lots of inspiration in the area,&quot; he says.&quot;We’ve had plenty of interest from tradies seeking a bit of extra space to work and store their gear.”Woodfield Hills is located 20 minutes from Canberra’s inner city, 25 minutes from Queanbeyan, five minutes from Sutton and 13 minutes from Bungendore township with its grocery store, pharmacy, medical centre and schools. School buses depart Newington Road to Canberra’s major schools.<img alt="woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621-184-image-0-20220609055948082275-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="450" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621-184-ima.width-800_bM0G8Gq.jpg" width="800">Each block has sealed road access to the front gate, power to the front of each allotment and fully fenced boundaries, with post and rail entrances.Chris says the blocks offer plenty of scope to go &quot;off-grid&quot;.“There’s a trend toward more people going back to their roots and wanting a sustainable lifestyle,&quot; he says.“The blocks are on rainwater and septic systems, so there’s no water rates, which is a plus.”The new estate is located on part of the Woodfield settlement, which stretched from Bywong to Lake George. The land has passed from generation to generation, remaining in the same family since 1870.“This subdivision is located within this exclusive estate, delivering 20 generous blocks yet to be shaped by the imaginations of their new owners,” Chris says.<a href="https://zango.com.au/developments/woodfield-hills-bywong-bywong-nsw-2621/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the Woodfield Hills listing</a>.Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/strong-demand-for-rural-blocks-within-canberras-golden-circle-at-woodfield-hills/567735" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The RiotAct</a>.
