Full of character, history, and heart, this early 1900s home is a true country classic. Nestled in the
peaceful Valley on a sunny, north-facing 1.17-hectare section, this is a property that’s been cherished
by its current owners for the past 26 years - and it's easy to see why.
The home retains all its original charm and period features, from timber floors and sash windows, to
stunning Kauri ceilings and the warm, welcoming feel that only a true character home can provide. It
features three bedrooms, including a spacious main bedroom with a beautifully refurbished ensuite. A
refreshed kitchen, which retains the original coal range, opens out to one of two decks, making
indoor-outdoor living easy.
Living is spacious and flexible, with three separate living areas. One offers the warmth of a cosy open
fire – perfect for quiet evenings with a good book – while another is positioned to catch the afternoon
sun and opens out to a deck, ideal for summer BBQs and relaxed entertaining. A built-in bar adds a
fun and functional touch for hosting. Year-round comfort is ensured with multiple heating options,
including the open fire, a log burner on wetback, and a heat pump. Thoughtfully maintained over the
past couple of decades, the home has been rewired, had a new roof installed, and was completely
stripped and repainted outside.
Outdoors, the lifestyle dream continues. The land is divided into two fully fenced paddocks, and
there’s a chicken shed and run for your own free-range eggs. A spacious 9x6m garage/workshop
provides versatile space for storage, hobbies, or workspace needs. Water won’t be a worry, with two
30,000-litre tanks plus an additional two smaller tanks for garden irrigation.
If you’re a nature lover, you’ll appreciate the remarkable birdlife - over 20 species have been spotted
here - and green thumbs will delight in the abundance of fruit trees. You’ll find plums, pears, apples,
citrus, figs, avocados, and feijoas flourishing here, and these are complemented by raised garden beds
ready for your seasonal produce.
This is more than just a property - it’s a place to settle, grow, and create lasting memories. If you’re
after a peaceful lifestyle with heritage charm and modern comforts, 121 Pretty Bridge Valley Road is
waiting to welcome you home.
