Description: Set on a peaceful 42.5 acres (17.2ha), this attractive rural property offers the perfect escape for those wanting a place to spend holidays in this beautiful area without the hassles of camping, or for buyers seeking comfortable accommodation while building their dream home.
The solar-powered weekender features a large undercover verandah complete with a slow combustion wood heater, creating a wonderful space to relax and enjoy the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside. Included in the sale are a 40ft container and Millard caravan, adding extra versatility and storage options.
Inside, the dwelling offers open plan living with three bedrooms. The bathroom and septic toilet are combined, while the laundry is located externally alongside a handy storage area and undercover parking for two vehicles. The current owners utilise their own caravan (not included) for sleeping and showering as the shower within the dwelling is not connected. Total rainwater collection is approx. 37,000 litres (approx. 8,139 gallons) - 2 x 5,000 litre tanks are not plumbed in.
For those wanting to embrace a more self-sufficient lifestyle, there is a fenced orchard featuring mango trees, a bush lemon, Brazilian cherry and established trellising for passionfruit. Animal lovers will appreciate the numerous chook pens and bird aviaries already in place. Owners have identified 40 bird species on the property and love the wallabies that visit.
Fully fenced and divided into three paddocks (with some fencing requiring attention), the property is well suited to running horses or a few head of cattle. Previously used for cattle, improvements include a loading ramp and crush. Two dams provide a reliable water source, with water able to be pumped to a concrete header tank which gravity feeds the dwelling's toilet and supplies the orchard and gardens. There is also an unused well on the property.
Ranging from approximately 63m to 71m above sea level, the land is enhanced by two seasonal creeks, one featuring an attractive stony creek bed, adding further character to the property.
If fishing and boating are among your favourite pastimes, you'll love being within easy reach of boat ramps on both tidal Baffle Creek and Agnes Water.
Adding to the convenience, the property enjoys bitumen road frontage, school bus pick-up for both primary and secondary students at the front gate, rates of approx. $1,747.50 per annum, and mains power available at the front boundary. Coles deliver groceries to your door, you have rubbish bin collection and mail delivery five days a week ensuring you can enjoy a rural lifestyle without sacrificing modern conveniences.
Whether you're looking for a peaceful weekender, a base while you build, or a lifestyle property with plenty of potential, this versatile acreage is well worth your inspection.
