Located 55 minutes from Canberra and 80 minutes to the coast is this contemporary home that provides sustainable living and a lifestyle you cant beat.

Set on 40Ha (100 acres) the house sits elegantly in its surrounds and provides a comfortable and private living environment. You will love the Jarrah floors, cathedral ceilings and the wonderful outlook from the living areas and bedrooms. Separate living areas provide plenty of space for everyone and the deep verandah is a great place for outdoor summer living and entertaining. The kitchen is well appointed and the La Germainia 5 burner stove and oven, stainless Vestfrost fridge and Dishlex dishwasher will be left for the enjoyment of the new owner.
What power bills Power is supplied through an off grid solar (1.3Kw) and Soma wind system (1.0Kw) which has been professionally installed and maintained. Windows are double-glazed, the house is fully insulated and cross ventilation ensures that you will enjoy the cooling sea breeze in summer – all incorporated to reduce power requirements.

Established gardens surround the home as well as an orchard, 35 olive trees and scattered fruit trees, and a fenced large vegie garden and chicken run are close by. Fruit includes all types of berries and currants, grape, apricot, apple, pear, nectarine, plum, pomegranate, persimmon, feijoa, cherry, quince and almond. A gravity irrigation system provides for the house block and vegie garden.
The property includes 4 dams, cattle yard, a woodlot of approx 3 acres of mainly wattle for future household heating. Land regeneration has been undertaken through 17km of direct seeding of local natives including red and yellow box. Improvements include large garage with concrete floor and power with an enclosed extended office area. A 13m x 13m hangar for farm implements had been used to house Ultralight aircraft.

There is a strong sense of community in the area and a school and pre school are close by. Its central location provides good access to the coast, trains to Sydney and an easy drive to Braidwood for breakfast. Closer to home is the local pub which is a great place for dinners on Friday nights.

If you are looking for a change of pace and would like to enjoy the benefits of a sustainable lifestyle within a friendly community this may be the place for you. Dont hesitate to contact Kim Gilbert to arrange an inspection.
