Set on an expansive 9,618 sqm allotment, 71 Owlpen Lane is a testament to heritage and opportunity. Owlpen House, 1830s stone and brick residence, enveloped in stunning established gardens, offers breathtaking farmland vistas. Inside, the character-laden home unfolds over two levels, brimming with unique details that echo its rich history.

The Home
This is a unique and captivating property, brimming with heritage charm and laden with future opportunities, with the proposed development including a one into six lot Torrens Title subdivision.

The property's interior is a celebration of heritage, with 12-foot ceilings, stone feature walls, and an array of character details, including timber panelling, decorative cornices, pressed metal ceilings, and deep-set casement windows. A standout feature is the timber staircase, lovingly crafted from reclaimed timber from the Farley train station.

The ground level unfolds into multiple living areas, each radiating warmth and character. The sunroom, with its heritage stone and brick walls, bathes in natural light, offering serene outdoor views. The heart of the home, the kitchen, is a culinary haven with timber cabinetry, granite benchtops, stainless steel appliances, and a charming old-fashioned Canberra cooker. The dining and living rooms, both carpeted for comfort, include an open fireplace and French doors that lead outside. The family room, with a combustion fireplace, provides additional space for relaxation.

The residence offers four bedrooms, split over two levels. The master bedroom is an oasis of luxury with a large ensuite featuring a corner spa bathtub. Bedroom 2 enjoys direct access to the sunroom, while bedrooms 3 and 4 boast built-in robes. The property also includes a heritage-tiled main bathroom and an additional powder room upstairs.

Outside, the established gardens are a verdant paradise, with fig and jacaranda trees, cottage gardens, and citrus trees. The paved outdoor entertaining area, adorned with a timber arbour, invites relaxed morning moments and al fresco dining.

An exceptional additional feature is the converted dairy. Featuring an outdoor bar, timber deck, large swim spa, extra room and bathroom facilities, it offers an extra entertaining space as well as guest accommodation.
