Our two-year old home is situated on Buckingham Estate that consists of 50 homes each with their own 2 acres as well as 250 acres of common land which is grazed by cattle, horses and alpacas owned by some of our neighbours. We have a great view onto the common land from the master bedroom and you often wake up in the morning to see cattle lazily grazing over the fence 20 metres away. The house includes three large bedrooms, an entertainment room, a large modern kitchen, two bathrooms and a double garage. Ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning provides heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. We also have a two-way gas fire that heats the dining room on one side and the living room on the other. Although we have only been here less than 2 years, we’ve done a lot of landscaping and there are lots of trees, a pond and a fruit and vegetable garden.
We are situated 3.5 kilometres from the thriving and friendly village of Bungendore which has a fantastic French restaurant, a well-stocked supermarket, a couple of great pubs, a public swimming pool and a good choice of coffee shops. From Bungendore, it is a 15-minute drive to the local wineries, a 40-minute drive to Canberra (the nation’s capital), a 75-minute drive to the coast (Bateman’s Bay), a 2-hour drive to the snow (Jindabyne) and a 3-hour drive to Sydney.
We can offer a 2004 Mazda car as a car swap.
More photos of our house and surrounds are available on request.
We are retired University professors. I am a socio-economist and my wife (Barbara) is an educational sociologist. We would be interested in going to England or France somewhere around April-May 2011
