Features
...which make this rural investment property unique.
The features which really make this investment “a dream come true” are:
- 33 hectares (95 acres) of private Australian bush with vast expanses of tall, magnificent gums and wattles.
- A charming, architect designed, professionally built, mud brick home. The welcoming lounge room, with cosy, combustion wood fire, dining area, bright, airy kitchen and high, 3 metre (10 foot) ceilings throughout, combine to provide a spacious feel. Two large, double sized bedrooms are serviced by a tiled bathroom and excellent laundry.
- Floor to ceiling windows on the North side, plus large sliding doors in the lounge and bedrooms bring the surrounding countryside to you. You'll never get tired of sipping a cup of coffee under the verandah looking on as the native birds come in to feed.
- The northerly aspect, sweeping verandas to all sides and natural energy efficiency of mud bricks, is enhanced by double insulation overhead (ceiling and roof), to ensure the home stays comfortable throughout the year.
- Two large 20,000 litre (5,000 gallon) concrete rain water tanks deliver water self-sufficiency. The “top tank” gravity feeds to the house. The “bottom tank”, with 3 times the catchment area, has an automatic water pressure pump.
- Two large, steel framed sheds. The “top shed” has a brick floor, sink and outside toilet — 6m wide, 12m long, 3m high. The “back shed” has a granitic sand floor and a shearing platform in the rear — 6m wide, 12.4m long, 3m high.
- “Stalag 13”, the 6m wide by 14m long, securely fenced compound for dogs to reside in.
- Three large earth wall dams provide plenty of water for stock and wildlife. The “front dam” features and old ski boat and a shade shelter. It makes an excellent, very large swimming pool. The “middle dam” is a black water dam, in a secluded, quiet and still setting. The “back dam” features its own ‘white beach’ and many an excellent feed of yabbies has been caught there.
- An all weather driveway, climbs away from the front gate, taking you through the trees and just over 500 metres to the house.
- There's an abundance of secret picnic spots to explore around this wilderness retreat, including the “meadow” where the kangaroos like to feed. In one special spot you'll find “Bucking Bronco”. Looking innocent and welcoming, all who try to ride come crashing to the ground.
Not
to mention the opportunity to develop your own
Vineyard or Olive Grove in the “front paddock”,
with water supply from the large “front dam”.
The area is becoming renown for its production of premium
quality, extra virgin olive oils. Or perhaps you'd prefer
to be able to produce your own home grown, home made wines.
