Some Background
The Cottage and Barn are on one ‘Village block’ of ˝ acre and the second block adjacent is the same.
We
purchased
another larger property in the village some years ago and this is now
our home,
hence our old ‘weekender’ of 20 years is let out as a B&B
We also have a small unit in the City as I need to still work until I
retire.
There are no buildings on the second ˝ acre. It could be re sold or
another
house constructed on it….however. Total one acre. We will not sell
separately.
We travel to and from St Albans each weekend, My partner usually mid
week and I
drive up on Friday and return Monday morning. The trip to Chippendale
NSW 2008,
Sydney is usually 1.5 hrs. never longer that 2 Hrs ....depending on the
traffic.
It is 97 km from Chippendale to St Albans
We have a real estate agent, who can arrange for you to
view the
property, provided we do not have any guests staying at the time you
wish to
view.
Consider a purchase in cojunction with family or good friends to share
the
rural experiance.
This is a good way to split the costs, again between friends or family.
Regards, Ian Richardson.
