Privately nestled in an elevated position to relish the breathtaking views and cool summer sea breezes that flow between the Middle and South Brother Mountains along the meandering Stewarts River Valley to the wrap-around deck. This property offers an idyllic opportunity to create the sustainable and self-sufficient lifestyle of your dreams.
The dwelling or "the big house", has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a comfortable living area complete with a slow combustion wood heater, kitchen, dining, and a large laundry. All bedrooms include built-in robes with the master benefitting from an ensuite and walk-in robe. Other features include ceiling fans, air conditioning, and a downstairs workshop/home office room with a large workbench and expansive window making it such a cool workspace. Fixed wireless NBN supplies speed fast enough to cover most family's requirements, including business and even home schooling should you desire.
A stone's throw from the main house is the Cob retreat, which is the centerpiece of an off-grid lifestyle that has been the endeavour of the current owners. The earthen structure built along the old English Cob building method using subsoil clay, straw, and aggregate sand to make a building that is fireproof, can be easily repaired from local materials if required, and has a very high thermal mass, allowing it to maintain a constant temperature year-round.
The property has been designed around permaculture sustainable farming guidelines, with earthworks undertaken to provide a series of water catchments and interconnecting swales. This in essence provides a bowl, that retains high levels of moisture, making gardening far more productive in the highly fertile basalt loam that the property enjoys. This will allow the keen market gardener the opportunity to literally grow their own fresh produce business.
