5 Fleming Road

Opportunities like this are few and far between. A secluded ten-acre property surrounded by extensive gardens, with room to have some animals and for the children and pets to play, yet still just a short walk to town. A five-minute stroll has you seated at Max's Restaurant, five minutes more has you choosing from the range of coffee shops in Foster's main street. The only home on the road and bordered by Nature Reserve, you enjoy a real sense of serenity as you drive down the tree lined driveway and get that first glimpse of the home. Extensively renovated by the current owners, the home has a country estate feel. As you enter the main lounge, kitchen and dining area the home just reaches out and hugs you. You feel instantly at home, your eyes drawn towards the extra-large double glazed picture windows. Quality slate floors throughout the open plan living space provide an extra feeling of warmth. The kitchen is a large country style with generous granite benchtop space, two ovens, a large island with wine storage and seating and an impressively renovated walk-in pantry. A dining space housing a ten-seater table is adjacent to the kitchen and the lounge area is divided into two spaces, bathed in natural light from the skylights and with extensive views towards the gardens via those picture windows and large lead light windows. The main bedroom is a retreat, extra-large in size, with plush carpet, WIR and renovated ensuite with high spec shower, vanity and toilet. Two additional bedrooms are both good sized with BIR's, ceiling fans and plush carpet. The central bathroom has also been renovated with high spec freestanding soaker tub, walk-in shower and vanity. A large laundry / mud room is fitted with ceiling high cupboards, and a separate cloak room toilet completes the internal features of the home. Outside is an oasis of garden spaces, including a wrap-around verandah with seating and views and a wellness area, with spa and brand-new cedar sauna equipped with a medical grade redlight. The home also has recently installed solar panels and a storage battery. There are extensive bird proofed veggie gardens, fruit trees, an inviting fire pit area, a large, fenced chicken run and even an apiary. The paddocks are divided into four manageable sized paddocks, with a shed, dam and cattle race. The land is neat and well maintained and ready for someone to house some animals. There is a two-bay garage / workshop with power and concrete floor and a new carport for two cars (with water tanks servicing the veggie patch). There is also a power box connected in the front paddock for a potential second dwelling. With town water connected and so close to town, this property is an extremely rare find and will not last long in the current market. Contact our office to arrange a private viewing.
