This architecturally designed family home sits on 5.5 pristine acres only minutes to Samford Village with its shops, schools & cafes. Incorporating three massive beams from the old bridge near the Samford Bowls Club this home is filled with recycled materials from the very fabric that held Samford together.
The bespoke nature of the residence is further enhanced by the quaint country kitchen with its recycled tallowwood bench tops, handcrafted cedar windows & doors, the external western red cedar paneling & the sandstone blockwork from Grafton.
The established vege patch & extensive landscaped gardens compliment the cottage style design. Sit back and relax on the the wide sun drenched verandahs and watch your kids & pets play in the lush country style gardens which embrace the home. Complete with a bore this property also has direct access to the Brian Burke Reserve Recreational Trail network with its walking/horse and bike tracks.
Perfect for extended family or guests this character-filled family home has three separate living zones: consisting of the Main Residence incorporating a semi-detached 2-bedroom cottage, a further stand-alone cottage & a loft area above the garage that could be converted to an artist’s studio or office space.
