A comfortable home in a peaceful rural setting in the beautiful Clarence valley, yet only 35 minutes on a sealed road to all the amenities of Grafton. Copmanhurst village a short drive away, has a general store / post office, a pub, child care & primary school. High school is in Grafton. Both school buses pick up at the gate.
The home features open plan living areas with raked ceilings, freshly painted inside & out with lots of glass for a light & airy feel. It is positioned to take advantage of the winter sun, & a wonderful outlook over a water lily covered dam, from the north facing veranda. A wood burning slow combustion heater keeps you toasty on cool nights. Air conditioning & ceiling fans help the insulation on those hot summer days.
2 bedrooms; main has air conditioner, ceiling fan, en-suite & access to covered rear deck. Recently updated kitchen has island bench, & lots of cupboard space.
Power, phone & satellite broadband are connected. Outside is a large shed / workshop & the very productive organic vegie garden is fenced & drip irrigated.
This home is on a 40 ha multiple occupancy, (Council approved, & held tenants in common, with only 8 shareholders). Each share has a designated home site of 1.5 ha. A wilderness area, & sustainably managed wood harvesting lot makes up most of the balance.
On-site drinking water collection, dam & bore water for garden use, solar water heating, and wood harvesting for heating makes this a very cost efficient property.
$55 a month takes care of communal responsibilities, rates, garbage collection, maintenance of access roads & public liability insurance.
This is a wonderful small community of non-intrusive, but supportive neighbours & is managed in an environmentally friendly way. A perfect retreat.
