KOJONUP LOCATION IN THE SHIRE OF CRANBROOK! 160 AMAZING ACRES!REDUCED TO SELL!
As you turn off Albany Highway and pass through the impressive gates of the 2m high boundary fence, you immediately feel the peace and quiet enfold you. The gravel drive steers you along past mature trees and re vegetated woodland of the 160 acre/63.12ha property, mainly clover of which 50 acres is pasture suitable for cropping or grazing, and 100 acres of vegetated Wandoo woodland.
Then, away from the highway, the north facing solar passive steel-framed house is surrounded by courtyards and native gardens, with a productive organic vegetable garden and home orchard laden with fruit for the table. The house itself is more than functional - it has warm and friendly atmosphere with a practical tiled floor in the spacious living areas. It consists of 4 bedrooms (or 3 plus study), lounge-dining room and a large country kitchen. The laundry is spacious with a separate composting toilet adjacent. There is one gleaming bathroom well lit by the glass brick wall and window. The hot water is supplied throughout the house from a 2 panelled solar hot water heater. The water to the house is sourced from the 2 huge rainwater tanks plus a further 3 by the shed.
Completely surrounded by verandas and a double carport under the main roof, you can pick your spot to sit and breathe in the air as you gaze over the paddocks to the 100 acres of revegetated woodland. The separate double garage is a real 'man's shed' and suitable for many projects, or alternately you could wander down to the small lake and follow the winter creek as it wanders along through the new forest where the birdlife is abundant and kangaroos graze.
This hidden paradise is part of the "Land for Wildlife" scheme and offers an alternative lifestyle away from the hustle and bustle; but with Albany Highway at the front gate, the access to s job in town or Albany is a breeze - (or: make the local farmers happy by working for them - if a job is what you want). With all the mod cons and benefits of city living hidden amongst the big farms, with neighbours close enough to visit but not visible, here is the best of both worlds.
As you snuggle up in the warmth of the fire on a winter's day (enjoying the view through the wide picture window of the lounge), or stroll through the bush spotting wildflowers in spring, you can be assured there'll be a smile on your face. Catch yabbies in the dam, shepherd some sheep, or just chill out. This property is suitable for any sized family. A veritable playground for children and access to schools with the bus right at the front gate, or ideal if you just want a tree change!
