FREE and Easy - Live Off the Grid

Embrace this complete green sustainable lifestyle package where living off the grid has never been easier. The thoughtful and smart choices by the vendor have made this a very appealing, self-sufficient haven set on 1.8501 hectares of flat, grazeable land, where the grass is lush, sunshine keeps money in your pocket, and food is fresh and bountiful. From the moment you arrive, you'll feel a sense of freedom and simplicity where the 'good life' makes the most of nature's resources. The sun for solar, the rain for water, and the earth for growing an abundance of food in all seasons. Producing your own power and living independently not only feeds your soul but leaves your money in your pocket. This modest solid 1960s home has sun-drenched decks to the north and east, inviting you to embrace rural living - watch your stock roam, the grass grow and your produce thrive.

This sustainable, off-grid haven operates effortlessly with 12 ground-mounted solar panels, a wetback system, twin 30L water tanks, and a UV filter providing clean water to the entire house. A dedicated shed houses a backup generator for added peace of mind. Solar electric fencing and sheep-proof paddocks make it perfect for grazing livestock or securing animals, complemented by a livestock trough and a chicken coop. A shipping container provides generous storage and houses the solar inverter batteries, while a brand-new 8x9m shed is ideal space for vehicles, a workshop, or weekend projects.

Step inside to open-plan living that feels relaxed and welcoming. The lounge and dining areas flow together effortlessly, warmed by a closed fireplace and supported by a heat transfer system. Both the kitchen and lounge open directly onto the deck, where indoor comfort and outdoor living become one. It's the perfect spot for a farm-fresh breakfast, a quiet book, or stargazing from the outdoor bath. The kitchen, fitted with a gas cooktop and wall oven, is practical and easy to use - perfect for cooking up garden-fresh meals from your home-grown produce. Two double bedrooms and a single provide space for the family, with the master bedroom enjoying its own deck access. A well-appointed bathroom, separate toilet, and laundry add everyday functionality.

Whether you dream of a slower pace, want to live more sustainably, or simply crave a place where you can live off-grid, this property puts quality back into life and works with what nature does best. This property isn't just a home - it's a flourishing food basket, where your environment works for you year-round. Contact Monique today to discuss further.
