Property

In the rural village of Gundaroo, the architect-designed <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">25 Morning Street</a> is almost hidden by leafy trees. You could be forgiven for thinking the rest of the home is as unassuming as its humble facade, but this is quite a property.“It has that classic Australian double-fronted design, with French doors on either side of a main door and a verandah,” says<a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/ray-white-bungendore/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ray White Bungendore</a> selling principal <a href="/agents/ellie-merriman/">Ellie Merriman</a>.<img alt="25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-image-0-20240403070203819003-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-imag.width-800.jpg" width="800">“This home is quite unassuming from the front, but once you go inside, the appeal only continues.“It was designed by the architect to be not only really impressive but also really functional.”Three-metre ceilings give a sense of scale, while large windows let the natural light flow in.“You come into an open-plan living room that is filled with light because the windows face the north, and you look out over the fig trees,” Ellie says.“The kitchen is a very modern design with white marble and chrome.”<img alt="25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-image-0-20240403070158216863-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-imag.width-800_zt3Ncdm.jpg" width="800">Each of the four bedrooms has high-quality wool carpets, while the master suite has a fully tiled ensuite and walk-in closet. The remaining three bedrooms are queen-sized.Sales agent <a href="/agents/ava-merriman/">Ava Merriman</a> says the current owner is an interior designer who has used her skills to make elegant additions to the architecturally designed home.“Everything, from the paint choices to the finishes in the kitchen, has been really thought through,” she says.“This home is an example of a property that has been crafted by someone who is a professional.”<img alt="25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-image-0-20240403070200450796-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-imag.width-800_PWwRPuE.jpg" width="800">The 2023 sqm block boasts beautiful landscaped gardens, reminiscent of a storybook.“This is a bigger block, and this property would be great for someone who wants to have a nice garden or sit outside in the sun,” Ellie says.Ava says the home was built on land that used to be part of a strawberry farm, so it’s very fertile and water drains really well.“It has a lot of beautiful, flowering native and introduced flowering plants.”Fully irrigated, the gardens include an established vegetable garden, fruit trees and a chicken run.People can enjoy the green views in their backyard from the outdoor courtyard – or cook dinner in their pizza oven.“You walk through the door, and it feels like everything is in order after a long day,” Ellie said.“It makes you want to sit outside and have a cup of tea or a glass of Pimm’s because this property is a quiet, very beautiful space.”After a long day, a dip in the 2-metre heated pool (tiled in blue Italian mosaic tiles) is sure to be a common occurrence. A 19th-century galvanized shed has been converted into a pool house and rustic retreat from the main house.Solar panels, offset to the grid, add a sustainable touch, while hydronic in-slab heating throughout the house will keep you cosy when the mercury drops.<img alt="25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-image-0-20240403070157782949-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711-imag.width-800_NFgKeZr.jpg" width="800">Ava says the timeless features bring luxury to the home, while the property’s size means there is room for everyone to find their space.“The home is very classic. It’s not a ‘hit you in the face’ kind of design,” she says.“Every part of the house has been thought about and designed to be simple but rich.”Moving to Gundaroo brings easy access to rural living in a close community.“We meet a lot of people looking to move to a property on a small acreage and have a more rural lifestyle,” Ava says.“Gundaroo was first settled in the 1820s, so it is an excellent example of a historic place with historic buildings and more modern conveniences.“I’ve seen people chatting with their neighbours, and the village has a cheerful, friendly vibe – you don’t get that everywhere.”25 Morning Street, Gundaroo is for sale for $1,990,000 - $2,190,000.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/25-morning-street-gundaroo-nsw-2620-98711/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/storybook-home-in-morning-street-in-gundaroo-is-quite-the-eye-opener/763848" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

From Strawberry Farm to classic Australian Charm

It’s hard to know what’s most spectacular about this Wallaroo property: the incredible bush surroundings and river frontage, the breathtaking build that makes the most of the setting or the stunning interior design features.<a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/ray-white/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ray White Canberra</a> licensed real estate agent <a href="/agents/mark-johnstone/">Mark Johnstone</a> says this riverside home at <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">156 McCarthy Road</a> in Wallaroo is the height of lifestyle properties.<img alt="156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640-image-0-20240402233215670455-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640-imag.width-800.jpg" width="800">“This is a property for the discerning buyer looking for a peaceful lifestyle,” Mark says.“It is distinctly different from anything else on the market because of the river views, where there’s about 240 metres of river frontage.”Visitors arrive at the architecturally designed home by passing through native bushland and driving up the sealed road frontage to the entryway.The main home has been built in a contemporary style with a solar passive design.“A clever use of angles, ceiling heights and positioning of the property on the block means it seamlessly blends in with the surrounding bushland,” Mark says.“The interior and exterior flow incredibly well and you can step through the home and find ample room for any activity.”<img alt="156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640-image-0-20240402233218605751-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640-imag.width-800_Wj4Z7uo.jpg" width="800">Built in 2009, the home was named the Housing Industry Association’s country home of the year for the ACT and southern NSW.It features four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.Two other bedrooms are on the same level and a fourth is downstairs.At this home, the natural world is never far away. It starts with the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, which offer seamless views to the outside world.The kitchen boasts stone benchtops and an expansive butler’s pantry.“The lounge room, the family room and kitchen are all north-facing to capture as much of the winter sun as possible,” Mark says.“The floor-to-ceiling windows give everyone a chance to see the magnificent views.“Meanwhile, the spotted gum solid timber floors through the home really do bring a lot of character and a sense of warmth.”The new owners can take in the expansive views from a viewing platform, which the current owners have termed The Terrace Bar.“Access to the treetop deck opens from the lounge room and also from the master bedroom on the other side,” Mark says.“The view places it right among the treetops.”At this property, the surroundings of the home are as beautiful as the inside.<img alt="156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640-image-0-20240402233220273833-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640-imag.width-800_EwjIHYx.jpg" width="800">The approximately 7-acre block boasts trails right down to the Murrumbidgee River.“There’s a good portion where the river is quite accessible, and the owners and guests can cross a rock hop to a beautiful, sandy beach,” he says.“That part of the property has been the current owners’ favourite spot over the years – they relax with the family and do a spot of fishing there.”A separate three-level studio gives extra space for hobbies, relaxing while taking in the river views or for working-from-home. It includes a bathroom, kitchenette and stunning furnished sunroom with a combustion fireplace.“It’s quite rare to find a property of this smaller size. Compared to other surrounding properties in the Wallaroo area, this is an ideal lifestyle property,” Mark says.“This size is very easy and manageable for the person who doesn’t want to be a hobby farmer, but enjoys the native bushland and surrounds.”Mark says this is a home where a family could take some time away from the hustle and bustle without sacrificing easy access to the conveniences of Canberra they love.“The property has a feeling of being remote, but is only a short drive to Hall village and only about 35 minutes to Canberra’s CBD,” he says.156 McCarthy Road, Wallaroo goes to auction Thursday 2 May 5:00PM at the Ray White office, 14 Wales St, Belconnen.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/156-mccarthy-road-wallaroo-nsw-2618-98640/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/award-winning-wallaroo-riverfront-homestead-is-breathtaking-from-every-angle/759240" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

It’s only about 70 metres from the house, but it’s a great little spot to relax at the end of the day.”The home boasts a full house solar system with 25 kW panels, two 10 kW Fronius inverters and an 11 kW battery which Justin says will “save you thousands of dollars”.The property is just seven minutes from Murrumbateman township, 20 minutes from Yass and 35 minutes from Canberra City.6 Kanangra Close, Murrumbateman will go to auction Saturday 16th March at 2.30pm (on site).<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/6-kanangra-close-murrumbateman-nsw-2582-95820/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/soak-up-that-open-space-at-luxurious-jiparu-estate-in-murrumbateman/748251" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

'Jiparu' Estate epitomises a prestigious semi-rural lifestyle

This architect-designed home is an oasis in the heart of the Yass Valley.<a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/raine-horne-southern-highlands/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Raine and Horne Southern Highlands</a> principal <a href="/agents/matthew-anstee/">Matthew Anstee</a> says <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">752 Kaveneys Road</a>, also known as Bottega, is a 150-acre slice of tranquillity.<img alt="752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-20240213041749718632-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-.width-800.jpg" width="800">“The owners worked with a local architect and tried to model the house around a resort-style oasis,” he says.“They have three children and grandchildren, so they wanted a home where they could come and be comfortable while still being in a rural property.”On arrival at Bottega, you’ll drive through the tree-lined driveway and arrive at the two-story glass entryway.“To have a home of this size that feels like a home is hard to achieve, but the owners have done this very well.”The home has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The master bedroom includes an ensuite with a spa and walk-in wardrobe.A separate wing of the property houses the other three bedrooms, as well as a kitchenette, living area and bathroom.Inside the home, which was designed using Palm Springs as an inspiration, concrete walls and timber throughout give the home a modern feeling.“The design is totally different from anything else near it,” Matthew says.“You won’t find any other property like it in Jeir.”<img alt="752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-20240213041752294321-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-.width-800_FY1U88d.jpg" width="800">A butler’s pantry and 16-seat dining table with views overlooking the rolling hills of Yass Valley will make everyday meals feel like luxury (not to mention dinner parties or special events with friends and family).“It has a feeling of home and openness,” Matthew says.“Although there is a lot of concrete, it doesn’t feel cold or uninviting.”A home cinema will entertain you indoors, while an outdoor heated pool and covered entertaining area will be the place to be when entertaining.Bottega also boasts a self-contained one-bedroom apartment.While the home is already eye-catching, Matthew says the views are one of the property’s other wow factors.“The house sits on the middle of the block and is positioned to maximise the views,” he says.“There are those breathtaking views looking down over the Yass Valley and down to the Snowy Mountains.”<img alt="752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-20240213041751790767-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-.width-800_5J5yHKk.jpg" width="800">Matthew says Bottega would suit those looking for a family home and a community where they can put roots down.“It’s certainly going to be purchased by someone who’s looking to have that mix of a quality build and a rural lifestyle,” he says.“Most rural properties and farms are simply not like this – they don’t offer the features this property offers.”The 150 acres can run 40 breeders, and all paddocks have concrete aprons and water troughs.For comfort, the home is double-glazed and the suspended slab conserves heat. A backup generator and solar panels mean the home is off-grid.Bottega is about 30 minutes from Canberra, meaning it would suit someone who works in the city but wants to escape to the country and their slice of paradise.“It offers that rural lifestyle while being so close to Canberra,” Matthew says.<img alt="752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-20240213041753031069-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289-image-0-.width-800_2OJBadA.jpg" width="800">The property is taking expressions of interest.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/752-kaveneys-road-jeir-nsw-2582-95289/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/palm-springs-inspired-oasis-with-room-to-roam-in-the-yass-valley/744370" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

“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. It’s highly sought-after.”Number 6 Kurrajong Lane, Manton, is for sale by negotiation.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/6-kurrajong-lane-manton-nsw-2582-79259/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/yass-valley-property-offers-stunning-views-river-frontage-and-creature-comforts-you-can-write-home-about/658267" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The RiotACT.</a>
