13 Lester Close, Singleton, NSW 2330

If you're searching for a property with privacy, wide-open spaces, room for the family AND a few horses, you might expect to have to travel some distance. But no! This delightful new listing proves that this is not the case.

Only ten minutes' drive from town, this lovely home on five acres (approx. two hectares) encompasses many of the benefits of a farm-without the drawbacks. It includes extensive landscaping with private hedging, wide manicured lawns, established gardens and, at the rear, seven pony paddocks.

An all-weather verandah wraps around the house, providing enticing places to sit at different times of the day-and in every season-to enjoy the gorgeous vistas. Pretty gardens and mature shrubs fringe the verandah, giving shade and dappled light where it's needed.

A substantial alfresco area at the back of the house is a brilliant spot for entertaining and relaxing, with idyllic views of the gently sloping land and paddocks leading down to two dams. A farm shed to the side of the house is largely concealed by well-placed painted trellis and a lush green shade garden. A misting system in place above the garden ensures its vigorous growth.

At the front of the home, a formal entry hall leads into a sunny, spacious living room with a delightful view of flowering shrubs in the front garden beds; the entry also leads into a large open plan dining room and kitchen. This is a light and bright space, with chic white cabinetry, black benchtops, breakfast bar, and a glass sliding door into the rear alfresco area.

There are three light-filled bedrooms, all with ceiling fans and two with built-in robes, plus a good-sized family bathroom with double sinks, and a separate toilet.

With its beautifully landscaped gardens, pony paddocks, and brick and tile home just ten minutes from town, this property really is a corker.
