The Oldmill at Badgers Creek.
Previously the site of a timber mill in the early 80′s, the Old Mill is now known for it’s privacy and wildlife. Boarded by both National Park, State Forest and two creeks, the Old Mill is in an elevated position with distant views.
The main structure itself has been adapted from a 360sqm saw mill into a home using local hardwoods, stone and glass. The seven huge glass windows and other natural elements give a feeling of being outdoors while comfortably inside. Other key features include the newly built hardwood deck, the massive iron bark beams that span over 25 meters each, self sufficiency with solar power, satellite tv, Next G phone and internet, shipping container, a gas hot water system, huge rain water tanks and a large “rumford” fireplace with an antique French tourne broche you can spit roast on. The bedroom includes a bath area, combustion heater and French doors leading out through a pergola to the vege gardens and the plumbed outdoor toilet.
The kitchen area is again large and includes a solar powered family fridge and gas stove. There is also an undercover 170sqm concrete slab which adjoins the deck and main house which could be used as either a creative space, a workshop, stables or for more bedrooms. Currently it is used for games and guest accommodation.
The 129 acre property has two dams, a natural spring you can swim in, iron bark cattle yards with loading ramp, two creeks, bush tracks to many parts of the property and various hardwood trees. The private access to Bakers Road holds great value to the property as it acts as the gateway to the west which offers dual access.
Putty is a very special and yet a mainly undiscovered valley 1.5 hours north of Windsor. The property would suit hobby farming, weekenders or a creative space.
