Featuring natural river frontage, the home is set on an elevated one acre fenced block that sits over 3m above the river. There is 107 metres of water frontage with plenty of room for your own jetty STCA and boat docking area. The Finniss River is peaceful; a sanctuary for the amazing local birdlife and wildlife including pelicans who glide in and out each day to their rookery nearby, resident black swans, herons, native birds of all types and various birds of prey. Relax in the alfresco area while watching yachts sail past and listening to the abundant sounds of nature. There is all year round, fun times ahead, whether it's fishing or enjoying water sports from your private lagoon area. Simply make your way down the raised purpose-built track to the waterfront which is where you will also find the water pump that is used to utilise the water licence allocation. The custom designed, brick veneer homestead was built for the current owners in 2016 by Fairmont homes and has been finished in style with attention to detail. It is perfectly designed to embrace a seamless transition between the indoor living area and the large outdoor alfresco area, while maximizing the use of natural light throughout.
