Are you looking for a chance to be self sufficient whilst eliminating your reliance on mainstream services?
The 8.09ha (20 acres) is suitable for raising your own animals, growing fresh produce or simply just getting away from the hurly burly of modern life. It is just over 2km from the centre of Mount Pleasant yet seems like miles away from anywhere.
Almost hidden from view is a 20 year old mud brick house built for the current owners as a weekender. It has been designed with energy saving principles in mind, with the living area facing north and wide eaves to keep the summer sun off the windows.
The large open plan kitchen/dining/lounge area is warmed by a slow combustion heater and has sliding door access out to the garden. There are 2 bedrooms with provision for built in robes and down the end of the hallway is the bathroom with shower and plumbing for a washing machine. A solar hot water system is already in place.
The owners have installed a 12 volt solar powered lighting system and have a generator for other power needs and with all the new technology available now, you have the opportunity to say goodbye to ongoing power bills forever.
The mainly flat land has a good coverage of mature gum trees, flowering natives and numerous fruit trees. There are also 2 dams.
Two concrete and one corrugated rainwater tanks allow for over 140,000 litres of rainwater storage.
This property is something out of the ordinary, so if you are looking for a chance to break with tradition, call Peter Girke on 0402 845 941 to arrange an inspection.
