The cosy KITCHEN has a Thermolux wood stove which also warms the home, there is room for a gas stove. The laundry and bathroom cabinets are solid recycled jarrah and pine with Federation style green and cream tiles in all wet areas. Relax on the elevated front verandah and enjoy views onto farmland and water catchment dams.
SOLAR POWER SYSTEM has an extensive solar panel power system complete with storage batteries that also feed into the power grid - rather than paying bills, this house MAKES YOU MONEY! A new Rheem SOLAR HOT WATER SYSTEM has also recently installed.
WATER to the home is suppled totally from two 22,713 litre rain water tanks at rear of house. A smaller tank on the front roof supplies water for the fenced veggie patch which has a gravitated irrigation system. The sewage system is a Dean Cameron design Biolytix that irrigates the orchard to the left of the house.
DAMS - Two on the property, a white clay dam which is used to pump water to the water tanks, and a brackish dam at the front of the property which is used for marron (freshwater crayfish).
