Eleanor Estate is an impressive 100 acre property with panoramic water views and is fully self-sufficient and off the grid on Beautiful French Island, Victoria which is only 1.5 hours south east of Melbourne. With a recent price adjustment this magnificent home is sure to exceed your expectations of value.
Being off the grid, there are no power bills, no council or water rates so any ongoing costs are kept to a minimum. A reliable power supply is via standalone Solar panels that are backed up by a diesel generating system. A 48-volt battery storage (deep cycle batteries) ensures that there is off-grid self-sufficiency capability and a 110,000 litre rainwater storage tank for residential use that will provide plenty of water.
The generous 100 acres (approx. 40ha) with its rolling pastures and large gum trees is home to many different wildlife species including koalas, wallabies and various bird species as well as some rare species of plants. The property runs Angus cattle as well as sheep and alpacas on the rich pastures which have been kept free of fertilizers and superphosphates.
It's a magical place where you can build a life away from all the hustle and bustle or enjoy it as your own private holiday destination!
