Period charm and character are featured in this beautiful 3 bedroom Edwardian home (circa 1910), set within an idyllic 10.5 acres (approx.) of lush lawns, manicured gardens, beautiful shade trees and flat paddocks.

The delightful home offers generous hallway with restored pine boards, three large bedrooms with ornate working fireplaces and master with BIR’s; formal sitting room with marble fireplace leading to the return bull nose front porch. Across the hall a gorgeous, light filled period bathroom complete with tessellated tiles and original claw foot bath has two-way entry to bedroom and hallway. French doors lead to the sympathetic extension combining light-filled country kitchen and family room with polished oak floors, double glazed bi-fold doors and stunning picture window leading to covered deck providing your constant distraction to the verdant views beyond. A combined laundry with lots of storage space and shower room complete the floor plan. The home has been re-wired and re-stumped and there is also plenty of attic storage space.

Outside features include: a double carport with corrugated storage rooms both sides, horse box, stable and original, old out-house still in use; dam, 100,000 litre (approx.) water tank. There is also a grey water filter system for watering the garden too. The orchard of fruit trees has old varieties of apples, blood and green gage plums; an ancient mulberry tree, as well as more recent plantings of nectarines and apricots ensuring an abundant supply for jams or picking. Bird life and native animals frequent further adding to the ambience of this restful place.

‘Wren’s Hedge’ is suited to lifestyle, horse, or hobby farm pursuits. You make the choice. And if you feel you need to drag yourself away, the big smoke is under an hour away and the airport around half an hour.
