Set on a generous 1817sqm north-facing block, the home is a beacon of energy efficiency and natural living. At its heart is a lush, lovingly cultivated 634sqm organic garden – a decade-long labour of love, transformed from bare earth into a thriving edible oasis.

In the cooler months, gather in the cosy lounge, warmed by a Gourmet wood heater with oven and water jacket – ideal for both comfort and cooking.
The home is cleverly plumbed to run on rainwater, mains, or a combination, and solar panels for electricity and hot water ensure minimal utility costs. A newly upgraded Ekodeck deck offers a stylish, maintenance-free outdoor space for entertaining or simply soaking in the peaceful bush views.
For the practical-minded, the property also includes a double garage with electric roller doors and awning, a 20sqm garden shed with its own awning, and a well-thought-out fire safety system, including a petrol fire pump, impact sprinklers, and a 36m hose reel.
