31 Curralea Lane, Forest Reefs

Rural

A storied farmhouse reborn – eighteen acres of charm, productivity & peace
Set high in the rolling green of Forest Reefs with sweeping views to Mount Canobolas, Old Curralea is a rare blend of history and modern comfort. The circa-1935 double-brick farmhouse on bluestone foundations has been lovingly renewed while preserving its soul. Pressed-metal ceilings, polished boards, ornate fireplaces and cedar windows tell its story; sunlight, space and thoughtful renovations make it an effortless home for today.

The front bullnose verandah perfectly frames the home giving every reason to pause with a morning coffee or watch the evening light fall across the paddocks. The home is perched proudly on the hill, approached by a beautiful driveway that opens to a generous, level house yard - a flat, useable setting ideal for children, gardens or future extensions as your family grows.

Beyond the home, beautifully maintained fencing divides the property into a large front paddock with a dam and four smaller stock paddocks, ideal for sheep, a few cows or horses. An established orchard brims with heritage fruit trees - apricots, cherries, apples, pears and stone fruit - all irrigated by a reliable bore.

The shedding is exceptional: the main shed is set up for entertaining with a wood fire, sink and full bathroom, creating the perfect venue for family gatherings or rustic celebrations under the stars. Three additional sheds and stables add outstanding function, while a large solar system keeps running costs low and the school bus conveniently stops at the front gate.

Inside, four generous bedrooms and two living zones create easy family flow. The north-facing sunroom soaks in all-day warmth and sunset colour overlooking the magnificent lawns and heritage trees. The kitchen pairs country style with function - Victorian Ash benchtops, a quality Smeg stove and garden outlook - while the bathroom features under-floor heating and there's a second toilet in the renovated laundry.
