Cape Schanck

Architect-designed and sustainably built, this striking rammed earth residence stands proudly at the end of a private 800-metre drive, surrounded by sweeping paddocks and uninterrupted rural tranquility. Every element of the home has been crafted for longevity, comfort, and energy independence, combining refined natural materials with innovative off‑grid capability. The thick rammed earth walls provide year round temperature stability, complemented by double glazing, a Lopi wood burner, and reverse-cycle air conditioners for seamless climate control. Inside, premium Queensland blackbutt flooring, granite benchtops, and Stringy Gum timber decks reflect coastal craftsmanship and timeless design. Entertaining flows easily from the gourmet Miele kitchen to open-plan living and bluestone paved verandahs overlooking landscaped gardens and the 10‑metre heated pool. Flexible zoning allows the guest wing and rear bedrooms to be separately locked off ideal for multi‑generational living or seasonal accommodation. Sustainability underpins every feature: 40 solar panels deliver 15 kW of power supported by a Tesla Powerwall 3 battery, ensuring uninterrupted off‑grid capability and a network of rainwater storage totalling over 190,000 litres along with rare access to Mains water connection. Practicality meets purpose in the expansive infrastructure. Two secure coded gates lead to a drive through three bay shed, dual double garages, and a network of fully fenced paddocks with mains‑fed troughs. Designed for flexible use, the sheds offer heavy‑duty construction suitable for machinery, stabling, or workshop projects. The property is fully fenced with 2.4‑metre kangaroo‑proof boundaries an exceptional rarity in the region ensuring privacy and protection for both livestock and landscaped surrounds. Beyond its architectural brilliance, the property supports a productive rural lifestyle. Approximately 300 established Eucalyptus tetragona trees generate a seasonal wildflower income exceeding $10,000 per annum, while well‑fertilised pastures comfortably carry up to 25 steers, with hay production and cattle yards in place. These operations offer both lifestyle flexibility and ready-made agricultural revenue, with established local contacts available for ongoing management or partnership.
