Overview

Welcome to your tranquil, cosy, comfy homestead on 40 acres of regenerating forest.

Phone Enquiry ID: 236823 Imagine waking in the morning to your own birdsong, collecting food from your garden, drinking fresh rainwater and knowing that your power and water are secure. This is a place for people who want a simpler, more independent way of living a genuinely off-grid lifestyle with the infrastructure already in place, surrounded by forest, gardens, birds and an abundance of growing things. The three-bedroom shed house is comfortable and practical, with electric blankets for the cooler months and air-conditioning for summer. It is a home that could be enjoyed exactly as it is, or gradually transformed and personalised by its new owners. And then there is the garden. Around the home is approximately 1.5 acres of landscaped gardens, with mature flowering trees, edible plantings, established fruit trees and an active herb and vegetable garden. King parrots and red-winged parrots are regular visitors, while the plantings support bees and a wonderful variety of birdlife, many of which nest and raise their young here. Your own food-producing garden. The established orchard includes: More than 20 avocado trees, with six already producing 3 Mangoes producing Macadamias producing Cashews producing Mulberries producing Moringa producing Chocolate sapote about to produce Olive tree No production yet Cumquats, oranges, limes, grapefruit and pomelo all producing Lychees - still babies Elsewhere around the property are: Bananas Passionfruit Lychees Mangoes Macadamias Lemon trees Many pineapples seven were harvested last year An active herb garden Four large above-ground vegetable beds Multiple shade houses There is plenty here for someone who loves growing food and would like to take an already-established garden even further. Space to explore The 40 acres include driving and walking trails throughout the property, two dams along a seasonal creek, and the peace and privacy that come with having plenty of room around you. The property is above the flood line, with bitumen to the gate and a driveway in very good condition. The gardens around the home are fully dog-fenced, with remote electric gate access. Both long boundaries are cattle-fenced; the two shorter boundaries would benefit from some tidying to maintain cattle fencing. Plenty of infrastructure There is extensive storage, workshop and machinery space, including: Three-bay machinery shed Three-bay carport attached to a fully covered 20-foot shipping container 2 bay carport Three additional undercover utility/workshop/storage areas Very large fully fenced chicken area Two large chicken houses, including one with a solar-powered electric door Multiple storage options Septic system with flushing toilet Old composting toilet, currently not in use The property is designed for independent living, with approximately 85,000 litres of water storage, a wind turbine contributing to the off-grid solar system, and: 2.45 kW solar panel array paired with a 36.48 kWh battery bank. There is also an on-demand gas hot water system. Included in the sale The following are included in the purchase: 40 HP Dongfeng 4WD tractor and slasher 5-in-1 bucket Brand-new 5-foot heavy-duty slasher Two 12/24V fridges, both in good working order BA Ford Falcon utility with 1,000L water tank, 30m retractable hose and solar pump for watering Petrol generator Washing machine Clay pizza oven Three large composting bins A place to make your own This is not a suburban property where everything has already been decided for you. There is space here to grow, create, experiment, build, garden, keep animals, walk, explore and simply breathe. Enjoy, Independence, abundance, birdsong, growing things, quiet, space, and freedom The essential infrastructure is here. The gardens are established. The water is abundant. The power system provides independence. The forest provides privacy. And there is enough land to allow your own ideas and dreams to unfold. Most of all, there is privacy, peace and the space to do your own thing. We are only leaving this blessed place because of ill health. It has been a wonderful lifestyle for us, and we hope it will become an equally wonderful beginning for someone else. Unimited Potential.
