Situated in a quiet rural position on the edge of Newstead township is this warm and friendly five bedroom rammed earth and mud brick home on approximately 1.9 HA or 4.5 acres. With generous proportions and high ceilings the home is spacious and light and sits in a beautiful and fruitful garden.

A barn style garage is accessed from the circular driveway and comprises two vehicle parking bays, a storage mezzanine and plenty of room for a workbench.
