This hilltop four-acre property with sweeping river-valley views has, in just four years, been transformed into an extensive and richly layered country garden. Hedges, arches, gazebos, seats, fountains and lawns frame cottage borders, ancient, old and modern rose walks, lavender banks, crabapple terraces, a grand dahlia field (in full bloom), woodland gardens, fruit, nut and berry orchards, cutflower and vegetable beds, and an antipodean retreat. The many rare plants and trees are labelled. There is so much to see and enjoy, it is well worth the short trip to the country – and if you like, bring a picnic or make a day of it with a visit to nearby Yass itself.

Step into a vibrant, productive garden where beauty and function grow side by side. Set on a large Calwell block, this thriving space blends cottage-garden charm with abundant edible planting. Wander through a landscape alive with wildlife, explore the tranquil garden pond and fern gully, and enjoy the soothing sound of water features tucked throughout.
