Renovated Character Home, sheds, river, income

This fully renovated 1910-character bungalow delivers the best of rural living with modern style, just minutes from town. Set on just over three hectares of flat, fertile land, the property offers space, privacy and productivity, with a stunning avocado orchard coming into production and future potential for kiwifruit conversion thanks to the favourable contour and low altitude.

Privately positioned among established grounds, the setting is idyllic—deciduous trees, vegetable and fruit gardens, and a gully of mature natives create a natural playground for kids and adults alike. A rocky-bottom stream completes the picture, perfect for summer swims, feeding eels or relaxed evening BBQs. All this, just a five-minute drive from town, with the convenience of Rea Road having a roundabout, making commuting easy.

The beautifully restored 170sqm bungalow is instantly captivating. Featuring three generous bedrooms plus a separate office, the home blends classic charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Stylish finishes, quality appliances and contemporary comforts complement original features throughout. Expansive wraparound decking with a large timber playhouse and outdoor power to set up your spa pool, making outdoor living effortless and inviting.

Light-filled living areas flow seamlessly to expansive wraparound decking, complete with a large timber playhouse and outdoor power ready for a spa pool—making outdoor living effortless. Inside, polished native timber floors, a stunning bay window daybed, and a well-appointed kitchen create a warm and inviting heart of the home. The main bathroom is a standout, with underfloor heating, a freestanding slipper bath and oversized tiled shower, while heat pumps and a wood burner ensure year-round comfort.

A key feature of this property is the extensive shedding and additional accommodation, providing outstanding flexibility:
•Large 5-bay steel portal frame shed
•One bay converted into a fully self-contained one-bedroom flat with bathroom, kitchenette and separate bedroom
•Additional two-bay pole shed for storage or equipment
•Separate single garage
Whether for extended family, guests, home business, or additional income, this infrastructure sets the property apart from others in the area.
The land includes a well-established 5-year-old avocado block, now approaching productive maturity. While not yet at full commercial yield, it offers future income potential or the option to explore alternative horticultural uses, including kiwifruit.
Whether you're seeking a high-quality lifestyle property with space and flexibility, or looking to unlock future land potential, this property offers multiple options in a tightly held location.
