Dual dwellings on acreage on the edge of town
Two dwellings combined as one - on a fabulous farmlet of 3.5 acres. Live in the main dwelling and rent out the single bedroom unit for additional income! The unit is very practical for elderly parents or teenager still living at home and finding it hard to get into the rental market.
Best of both worlds - semi-rural living on the edge of town. At the end of Forest Road, Orbost sits a well-presented double storey, double brick, five-bedroom home including a one bedroom self-contained unit on 3.5 acres (also an option to buy an additional adjoining 10.7 acres of semi-rural land - POA). Buy both allotments combined or purchase the house on the 3.5 acres for $850,000 - $899,000 with a long sprawling driveway leading to a two bay garage under the house and also wraps around to an open four bay powered shed and cattle yards. A mixture of modern living with a rural feel.
The home is around fifty squares under roofline including wraparound balconies and verandahs and was built approximately fourteen years ago. Built with a Northerly aspect and enjoys amazing rural valley views from its wrap-around balcony which surrounds the home, with double glass sliding doors inviting the inside to the outside. As you enter the home you are greeted by a large open plan living design. There is a generous dining area adjoining a modern kitchen with a large walk-in pantry, abundance of cupboards, a gas cooktop with an electric oven, plenty bench space and breakfast bar. The spacious lounge area includes a slow combustion free-standing wood-fired heater and 10 KVA Reverse Cycle Slit System air conditioner, creating a comfortable temperature for all seasons.
The rest of the home is designed with separate wings separating the kids from the parent's area. The western wing of the home is where the master bedroom is located and boasts a large walk-in robe and a separate full bathroom with a shower and bath and a separate toilet and separate laundry. The southern wing located off the living area has three additional bedrooms (two with built-in robes and one currently being used as an office), a large bathroom, a separate toilet, and a walk-in linen press, great storage area.
Internal stairs lead down to the large two bay garage and laundry and a fabulous self-contained one-bedroom unit with its own private access. The unit comprises of a spacious separate loungeroom/games room, kitchen and adjoining dining/family area, a large bedroom with built-in robes and a generous bathroom with a shower, toilet, linen press and vanity. The unit would be ideal for dual living for an adult child or an elderly parent to have their own living space or would be a great source of income to rent out as AirBNB accommodation or long-term rental.
Other features of this home include-double glazed windows and doors, block-out blinds and a 4.6KVA roof-mounted solar system which help keep power bills low. Plenty of parking for all your vehicles, trucks, caravan or boat and all your family, friends and visitors. Landscaped gardens enhance the home frontage while the grassed backyard is an excellent spot for kids to play. This lovely acreage is the perfect property to enjoy a country lifestyle while still being in town. Enjoy sitting on the balcony relaxing after a long day with a glass of wine or a beer and watch the sunset.
