GREEN FOOTPRINT RURAL COTTAGE ON 45 ACRES - Nature is calling!
Here is a unique opportunity to own a sustainable piece of Australia's design heritage on a rambling 45 acres. Set well off the road beyond an avenue of olive trees lies the heart of this property. On the high ground and surrounded by scattered mature Eucalypts and peppercorn trees is the corrugate and red brick residence, 4 bay machinery shed, olde shearing shed, 40' container which is semi converted for use as a studio / study, chook run or dog compound and stock yards. The rolling country is in 3 paddocks and needs some fencing completion, has a good sized dam and is currently in 2 titles of 20 and 25 acres.
The residence has been largely repainted inside, much rewiring and replumbing, new upright gas stove and a brand new off grid power PV system. There are 3.6kW of new roof mounted panels, new generator in the detached mudbrick laundry plus a new inverter. Two large water tanks fill from roof collect for domestic usage as well as dam water storage for the outdoors.
