Overview
Serene Bushland Retreat – Self-Sufficient Living Awaits!
This expansive property is a serene bushland retreat offering a self-sufficient lifestyle in the picturesque foothills of the Newry district in Gippsland. Covering an impressive 53.25 hectares, it provides a private sanctuary for those seeking a sustainable and nature-connected living experience.
The residence, constructed nine years ago by skilled local builders, is thoughtfully designed for comfort and durability. It features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, complemented by three spacious living areas. The home boasts a beautiful mountain ash timber kitchen and verandahs at both the front and rear, allowing residents to enjoy sweeping views of the tranquil landscape.
Designed to operate off-grid, the property is fully self-sufficient with a 4.5kW solar panel system, supported by twelve 1000 amp hour 2-volt batteries, and a 37kVA backup generator installed three years ago. This setup ensures reliable power supply independent of the grid.
Ample storage and workspace are provided by three large sheds measuring 6 meters by 12 meters each, along with carports, garden sheds, and animal shelters. Water supply is well managed with multiple tanks and dam water sources, servicing the house, gardens, and stock troughs efficiently.
The land itself is gently undulating and predominantly covered with native trees, approximately 90% treed, creating a natural habitat for local wildlife. A fire break surrounds the perimeter for safety, and the property includes two seasonal creeks contributing to the thriving ecosystem.
Located near Lake Glenmaggie Weir and surrounded by numerous 4WD and adventure trails, this property offers a unique combination of seclusion and easy access to outdoor recreational activities, making it an ideal retreat for nature lovers and those seeking a sustainable rural lifestyle.
