Overview

179,950 Off-the-Grid Oasis in a Tropical Haven (Requires Council Approved)

$179,950 - This Week Only ! - Expires 11 March 2026 This exciting opportunity has just become available. It offers an off-the-grid lifestyle in the finest of scenarios, and the possibilities are as awesome as the location and its unique aspects. The property is almost 550 m2, securely fenced and with sustainable living ready and waiting. Being on a quiet road, with no neighbours on either side. Privacy and open skies, combined with low-cost living, make this an exquisite and amazing alternative to island life. And the good news - it's all set up and ready for you. This is all about catering to that lifestyle we often dream about. You have a fully fenced, secure setup ready to live in, with power, water, and storage facilities waiting. The spare areas of the block are cleared, gravelled, weed-free and with plenty of open space for you. It can be an epic weekender, or a sustainable lifestyle choice for you and your loved ones to embrace. The privacy is perfect, giving the feel of a secure compound that can cater for weekends away with friends, and plenty of room for young ones to play. This is about planning and living, without the woes attributed to costly utilities. The property has power to run household items, even air-conditioning. There are water tanks with pumps, a loo and heated showers to enjoy under the stars. The raised living modules are solid, spacious and secure. Hot water and air-conditioning will delight your favourite people when they arrive. These are quality power plants that have been installed, with inverters and batteries under cover and running strong for each building. The house has two batteries (800mAh x 2) and an inverter which caters for lighting, t.v., aircon and appliances. Every detail here has been intentionally and cleverly created – from appliances to comforts. Sustainable living is a huge drawcard these days, not just for cost-reducing but also to lower the footprint of our expanding existence. This is how to connect with what truly matters, and your world here can cater to a host of exciting and guilt-free opportunities. You can host epic fishing weekends or provide an exciting, safe playground for friends and family. Make your own gym or create a productive space for hobbies, such as an art/music studio in the secure pod beside the main building. And be warned, if you bring the family to see the property – yes, that is a flying fox set up out the back and it runs from a treehouse. Also, there is a boat ramp only four minutes down the road. Council approval processes are available via the Redlands Shire, and the team here at Bay Islands Property can point you in the right direction. You may also sell off the current buildings for substantial amounts and start afresh. The two buildings, along with the existing shipping containers, would be of interest to others locally. The live-in buildings have ceilings, floors and walls and are all set for someone to grab. The land itself can be a stand-alone investment opportunity and a fresh canvas for your own design and building projects. All of these points, with more yet to see, make for an exciting and unique option up for grabs: • 546 m2 property, off-the-grid ready to use • Sustainable living – a self-sufficient lifestyle on a peaceful island • Hot water and laundry facilities • Solar, Batteries, Tanks and pumps (water tank plus a raised industrial grade ICB tank) • Massive container home with floors, walls and ceiling, decked-out kitchen with cupboards, dining area AND bedroom; steel-framed and strong • Additional building with double-glazed doors and a perfect space for a studio • Plenty of storage with existing shipping containers • 4,000 litres of water storage • Room for the car, jet ski and kayaks • Water views at the end of the street • Drop off in 6 minutes at our local State School • 4 Minutes to one of our boat ramps • 6 minutes to the Sandy Beach Recreational Reserve • 8 minutes for the shopping precinct and ferry terminal • Requires Council Approval Alternative living options of this calibre, design and know-how are rare and exciting.
