Hidden in a private valley with a north aspect, this 3-bedroom home sits proud on 50 acres (20.23ha) blending a mix of arable valley floor with stunning natural bushland surrounds. Being the last private property on Yallambie Road, peace and tranquillity are guaranteed! Less than two hours from Sydney CBD this tranquil bush retreat will make you feel a million miles away from city life. The property features an off-grid 3-bedroom home set on an elevated plateau with a large undercover verandah that takes in the beautiful bush land views.
The eco-friendly house is fully self-sufficient with solar power, gas cooking & gas hot water. The open plan kitchen is fitted with a gas stove and adjoins a spacious living area featuring a slow combustion fireplace (The Vendor has advised the fireplace may need a chimney sweep & some repairs as it has not been used for some time). The home comprises three generous bedrooms, one bathroom and has plenty of potential to expand if needed. Stepping onto the north facing verandah gives you the feeling of a real bush retreat ambience, ideal as a weekender or permanent lifestyle property.
Near-by the house is a timber alfresco area where you can sit and appreciate the prolific bird life and watch the Kangaroo's and wallabies graze on the grass valley below. Hand-made rock retaining walls and terraced vegetable gardens have been lovingly created and are situated just behind the house, with some TLC they could be revived to their former glory. There is one small dam fed by a spring allowing ample water for your gardens.
Domestic water storage includes a large house tank and one additional smaller header tank (approx. 40,000L total). While there is no mobile reception, the NBN satellite internet services are available in the area and WiFi calling can be utilised with smart phones. There is also a landline phone connection available.
The property has approximately 2-5 acres of arable land on the valley floor with the remainder being mountain bush land terrain. Some seriously impressive caves & ancient rock escarpments are situated on the property and make for an intriguing bush walk. Native flora is abundant with many rock orchids and huge gum trees.
Perfectly suitable for either a permanent rural lifestyle property or picturesque country retreat to escape the city, the choice is all yours!
*Please note the house is DA approved and built in approx. 1994, however it never had its final inspection sign off.
