Sustainable Lifestyle in Mud Brick Home

Welcome to your dream rural escape! Nestled into the natural contours of the landscape, this truly one of a kind home was thoughtfully designed and built by a local engineer using local timber, stone, and earth. A cherished family home for almost 40 years, it is full of character, comfort and connection to its bush surrounds.
Set on 50 acres, this tranquil property backs directly onto the Avon / Mount Hendrick Natural Features and Scenic Reserve, south of the renowned Avon Wilderness Area. Just 3 kilometres down the road is the beautiful Avon River complete with walking tracks, swimming holes and abundant birdlife.
The majority of the property is thriving native bushland, home to towering red ironbark, stringybark and box trees. You'll find native grasses, wildflowers and all kinds of local wildlife from kangaroos and wallabies to wombats, echidnas, gliders, goannas and numerous native bird species. The cleared area around the home offers open views across a dam and surrounding forest a perfect spot to relax and take it all in.
You will feel a world away, yet you are within the active and welcoming communities of Boisdale, Valencia Creek and Briagolong. Nearby bus routes provide easy access to schools in Boisdale, Maffra and Sale.
The home is a standout original, eye catching and perfectly in tune with its surroundings. Designed for comfort and sustainability, the passive solar layout includes 2 octagonal wings, linked by a spacious, welcoming entry porch. North facing living areas soak in the sun through beautifully crafted timber windows. Established deciduous vines provide shade and natural cooling in summer and allow the winter sun to warm your living space.
Thoughtful design is everywhere from the lofty double glazed clerestory windows and cross ventilation through doors on all four sides, to the insulation that keeps things cosy in winter. A slow combustion wood stove provides ambient warmth throughout the cooler months.
Safety and sustainability are both top priorities here. The home is positioned on the south side of a gentle hill with the surroundings cleared to reduce bushfire risk. It features a roof and under-eve sprinkler system fed either by pump or gravity from a hilltop tank. Water storage on the property is provided by 4 dams and 4 rainwater tanks.
You will also enjoy full off grid living with a stand-alone solar power system (with backup generator), ensuring a reliable and environmentally friendly lifestyle year-round.
There is ample shedding, including a three-bay shed for machinery, two workshops, and a separate guest space with ensuite perfect for visitors or extended family. There is even a separate office area for those wanting to work from home in peace and quiet.
If you've been dreaming of an eco conscious lifestyle surrounded by wildlife, clean air and nature's beauty - while still enjoying the comfort of a thoughtfully built home - this is the property for you.
