Rural living here is as good as it gets. This property appeals to the senses - SEE birds and animals, HEAR the quietness, SMELL only clean fresh air, and TASTE crystal-clear water. All in a climate that never gets cold.
Large, tiled open-plan accommodation in a 5-acre clearing, in the middle of your own 20 acres of rainforest.
There is a stand-alone unique bathroom with timber walls, slate-tiled floor and unusual stone work.
And nearby is a separately-fenced and compliant saltwater pool with spa.
All set in spacious grounds with colorful gardens, flowering orchids, about 60 fluffy foxtails and many golden canes for shade.
In the mornings, after a few laps in the pool, coffee is brewed over an open fire, under the shade of the big milky pine. There is plenty of firewood (you own 20 acres of forest, remember).
In the afternoons, meander through the rainforest and take in the sweet smells and sounds that the birds and the breezes make. Then back into the pool and lie over the spa to sooth the aching muscles after a hard day - ah, living life in the great outdoors, permanently.
Along a 70-metre track through the rainforest towards the river is a huge fig tree. Magnificent ! You will want to show all your visitors.
Although about 15 kilometres from town, you are certainly not isolated, with good mobile reception, mains electricity (3-Phase), and phone connection (NBN cabling along the road out front). Both sides and the front boundary are fenced.
Water supply is by a bore pumped to an overhead tank, providing ample pressure. As well, 2 huge storage tanks hold 54,000 litres of rainwater.
A high-clearance 3-bay carport measuring 10.5 X 9 metres, provides under-cover parking for caravan, boat, and car. Another smaller shed keeps the weather off the tractor and tools.
As an added bonus, it appears that the entire property has the rich, red, grow-anything, very fertile, volcanic soil. This will ultimately be of great value.
A special property that will change your life for the good, forever.
