Overview
Located within the serene environment of the Wallaby Road Community, this property comprises an approximate 8-acre parcel, offering a rare opportunity to live in harmony with nature while enjoying privacy and self-sufficiency. The land is embraced by mature gardens, a spring-fed communal dam, and natural wooded areas, presenting a unique combination of rustic appeal and practical off-grid living.
The present owners have invested in numerous significant enhancements to improve the functionality, comfort, and reliability of the property while preserving its rustic character. Notable upgrades include the installation of an instantaneous gas hot water system, comprehensive plumbing improvements, enhanced driveway access, upgraded electrical systems, significant earthworks, ongoing general maintenance, and valuable refurbishments to the kitchen, living spaces, and outdoor decks. The energy setup is noteworthy, featuring a 6.6kW solar array supported by a brand-new 6.5kW Victron inverter/charger, Victron charge controllers, a touch monitoring system, and a battery storage capacity of 14.4kWh from Pylontech lithium-ion batteries.
The cedar-clad residence, constructed in the 1980s, exudes warmth and character throughout. It boasts high cathedral ceilings, exposed timber beams, slate flooring, and natural materials, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. The flexible layout includes a bedroom on the ground floor, with an additional loft-style bedroom above the living area. This design fosters a peaceful and light-filled retreat space that overlooks the home's central areas.
A modern extension, connected via a breezeway, adds substantial extra living space, which can be utilized as a third bedroom, studio, or creative workspace. This area features insulated ceilings, floating timber floors, and contemporary lighting. The main bedroom is equipped with a Panasonic air-conditioning system, providing direct access to both the main entertaining deck and a private balcony. Additional comfort is delivered by a second Panasonic air conditioner and a wood heater within the lounge room, ensuring year-round climate control.
The kitchen combines practicality and style with timber bench tops, a gas stove, dual sinks, and a walk-in pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a bright, well-appointed bathroom finished in crisp white shades, with pleasant views of the surrounding greenery.
Outdoor living areas are exceptional, with a main entertaining deck overlooking well-maintained, park-like gardens. The deck features glass balustrades and an insulated roof with an outdoor fan, complemented by durable hardwood decking. A small pavilion on the grounds offers a quiet spot for yoga, meditation, or relaxation. Additionally, the property includes a spacious greenhouse, extensive under-house storage, a large storage shed, and multiple flat excavated pads, which provide excellent facilities for gardening, various projects, or future development.
Water supply is secure and abundant through two substantial cement water tanks, providing approximately 54,000 litres in total. The main tank services the house, accompanied by a second identical header tank. This system is supplemented by a spring-fed community dam, connected via a pump that feeds the secondary tank, enhancing water reliability in an off-grid setting.
The property's productive edible garden features mature fruit trees such as mango, custard apple/atemoya, guava, loquat, mulberry, citrus, and coffee plants. There are also seasonal edible vines along with blueberries, cassava, and sweet potato. The established food forest is designed to provide seasonal harvests for much of the year and holds significant potential for expansion into a larger permaculture or regenerative garden, supporting a sustainable lifestyle.
