This character filled weatherboard cottage between two rivers in Uriarra Village was the original Ranger's residence. If you're looking for a 'tree change' and thought that you couldn't afford a character home with enough land to have your own market garden and still some to spare, then think again!
Set on a beautiful flat block just shy of 1,400m2 with extensive established vegetable gardens and sweeping views to the Brindabellas, this home has all the charm of yesteryear. Think timber sash windows, high ceilings, picture rails, timber doors and flooring, all with an open plan feel and vistas in all directions. A lovely slow combustion heater warms the entire home and the original open fireplace remains in the main bedroom to add a bit of romance. After the 2003 bushfires swept through the village, the cottage was given a complete makeover which included facelifts to both kitchen and bathroom, new roofing, guttering, electrics and plumbing. A solar hot water system was added 6 years ago and a covered rear pergola offers a space to entertain with stunning mountain views across the village horse paddocks.
There's a lock up garage and workshop plus a double car port, so vehicles will be looked after and loads of potential for extension or further development. The village has a real sense of community & the buyer will be able to avail themselves of common facilities such as the swimming pool, gym, tennis courts, Community Centre and horse adjistment. The area offers many outdoor recreation activities on your doorstep such as bushwalking, horse riding, cycling and camping, and it is only five minutes drive to two of the best river areas in the district for swimming, picnics and fishing. A local bus service provides transport to nearby schools each weekday.
