Hidden away at the end of Jinjera Road, nestled at the base of the hills and surrounded by glorious mountain and rural views, this wonderfully private 104-acre (42.34 ha) property offers the chance to escape the everyday and embrace a genuine country lifestyle.

Located around 35 minutes from the outskirts of Canberra and 8 km from Michelago Village, the property combines peace, privacy and space with the convenience of having the village within easy reach. Whether you're dreaming of horses, a few cattle or sheep, a hobby farm, or simply somewhere the family can enjoy the freedom of country living, there is plenty of potential here.

Taking centre stage is the cedar-panelled country homestead, complete with a full wraparound verandah on all four sides – the perfect place to sit back, enjoy the serenity and take in the surrounding countryside.

Built in the early 1990s, the home offers plenty of character and a great foundation for someone prepared to roll up their sleeves and add their own finishing touches. While plenty of renovation, upgrading, completion, and rectification work is required, the bones are here to create a charming rural home.

Inside you'll find three generous bedrooms, including a large main bedroom with walk-in robe, along with a combined lounge and dining area warmed by a slow-combustion wood fire. The spacious country kitchen provides plenty of cupboard space and features gas appliances, including a gas cooktop and oven, plus a gas refrigerator, together with an adjoining meals area.

For those looking to reduce their ongoing costs, the property is completely off-grid, with no mains electricity connected. Power is provided by solar panels, a battery system and generator, while bottled gas and a septic system further support the property's self-sufficient lifestyle.

Outside, the approximately 104 acres provide predominantly open paddock country, offering plenty of scope for horses, livestock, or hobby farming. Note that the land and paddocks are generally in poor condition and require improvement and weed management. The property is fully fenced and includes a large shed, a shipping container, holding yards with an old cattle race, providing useful infrastructure for anyone wanting to make the most of the land.

Water infrastructure includes two rural concrete water tanks and a header tank for domestic use, and several stock dams, along with a natural creek running through the property from the hills behind, which flows after rainfall.

Private, peaceful and packed with potential, this is the sort of rural property where you can create your own country lifestyle – renovate the homestead, run some animals, enjoy the wide-open spaces and experience the tranquillity of having 104 acres to call your own, all within an easy commute to Canberra.

Michelago, surrounded on both sides by towering mountains, is a special little rural village just south of Canberra offering so much for a family wanting to get out of suburbia. The historic local public primary school is excellent, catering for kindergarten to Year 6 while a school bus takes older students into Canberra, plus there's a great local cafe and service station.
