42 Greenhills Road, Narrikup, WA 6326 LIVE IN HARMONY WITH NATURE

In an idyllic natural setting of original vegetation and wildflowers attracting a diversity of native wildlife and birds, this manageable rural property presents an exciting opportunity for those who aspire to a self-sufficient lifestyle.

The 13.7 ha block (approximately 34.25 acres) is mostly bushland of tall eucalypts interspersed with native shrubs and grasses, and a hay paddock taking up about a third of the land brings an annual income.

Centrally positioned on the land is a comfortable cottage with an adjoining shed-workshop, both brilliantly set up to run entirely off-grid.

An open living space in the cottage consists of a cosy lounge, dining area and kitchen with timber and white cabinetry, a gas cook-top and wall oven, and a combustion stove providing hot water all year round while heating the entire home in winter.

There are two bedrooms, a bathroom and several store rooms, a studio with good natural light, and a front patio for sitting out and watching the birds.

The impressive shed-workshop of approximately 13m x 17m has a concrete floor, high-clearance doors for big vehicles and numerous power points.

A four-bay general-purpose shed and a four-bay tractor shed with a part-concrete floor make up the outbuildings.

Electricity from the sun, drawn from solar panels and stored in a bank of batteries, provides ample supplies all year round, and water is also abundant from 10 rainwater tanks as well as a dam and bore.

One rainwater tank is dedicated to a roof sprinkler system to protect the main buildings in case of bushfire, and others feed the house, the chook runs and the orchard of citrus, stonefruit and apple trees.

Zoned Agriculture Priority 2, the land is mostly flat, with scope for cultivating a variety of fruit and vegetables, and running a few head of sheep.

This private and peaceful property is just off a tourist route to the Porongurup National Park a few kilometres away. With its renowned wineries, art events and spectacular walk tracks, it is a popular destination explored by thousands of visitors a year.

There's an inn, shop and tea rooms in the Porongurup townsite and for more specialised needs, it's only a 15-minute drive to Mount Barker and half an hour to Albany.

Please note that structures on this property, except the tractor shed, are not approved by the local authority but they are aware of this and the habitable use.

Buyers aspiring to an uncomplicated, sustainable lifestyle with a focus on environmental protection will appreciate the many established facets of this attractive holding. Contact Lee Stonell to discuss the realisation of your dream lifestyle today on 0409 684 653 or [email protected]
