17 Mooney Road, Dalefield.

The 4,286 square metres of beautifully established grounds unfold in layers, creating a sense of privacy and permanence that is increasingly rare in this location. Stone-paved pathways wind past flowering beds alive with seasonal colour, white roses frame a sun-drenched deck with corten fireplace and lawns stretch beneath mature trees. A willow offers dappled shade, oaks anchor the lower reaches of the site and reserve land on one boundary enhances the rural ambience. Terraced landscaping rises gently to a spa, while covered vegetable beds and a glasshouse allow owners to fully enjoy the growing season.

The home itself is deeply welcoming. A skylit entranceway and wood-panelled hallway set a timeless tone. Recent renovations, including fresh interior paintwork and new joinery, have been thoughtfully completed to enhance comfort and longevity while preserving the home’s rural soul.
