Located in the prestigious Jiparu Estate just 20 minutes from the ACT, 40 Jiparu Drive is a spellbinding property.

Whilst the main residence wasn't completed, the owners cleverly established the property as an enjoyable lifestyle retreat.

Firstly, the charming 184m2 Hamptons style studio/garage features 2 20m2 upper level bedrooms with raked ceilings and gardens views, a fully equipped Hamptons style kitchen with a gas cooktop, Dublin sink and crisp white French café tiles as splash backs, a living/dining area with linkage to a north facing Juliette balcony and a beautifully appointed bathroom.

The lower or garage level is fully lined and configured as 2 large utility rooms, a laundry, toilet room and storage. The lower level has French door access to a raised timber pergola deck fringed with bird packed private gardens.

A sensational in-ground swimming pool set in sandstone tiles and bordered by a frameless glass fence separates the Hamptons studio from one of the best outside entertaining venues this side of the SCG.

Yes, there's a whopping 168m2 of semi-enclosed enjoyment!

The event-level cooking facilities include a firebrick pizza oven, electric hotplate, gas BBQ, tri-door under counter wine/general fridge, unconnected dishwasher and 3 avanti air extractor fans. The house grade kitchen benches are capped with 40mm stone tops and there's a large island bench with washup facilities.

Also, the area has downlights, a ceiling fan, circuitry provision for a future spa and sauna and a fan-forced combustion heater.

No country property would be complete without an exciting array of infrastructure and property management equipment. At 40 Jiparu you don't need to build or buy it; its already here for you.

There's a 12m x 5m workshop shed, 3 water tanks, 10kw solar power installation and property maintenance equipment all included in this sale.

The level 2.896 acre block is mostly bordered by evergreen tree lines and carefully gardened.

Well irrigated, the plotted gardens include ornamental and fruit trees, many shrubs and a fabulous 15m x 11m bird wire netted vegetable garden. There's even a paved and sheltered fire pit.

Essentially, in its current form, 40 Jiparu is a compelling choice for a couple wanting a fully established property with a smaller and character filled residence. Alternatively, its ideal for someone wanting to live on site whilst building a larger family home, or for use as an immersive weekender.
