OFF GRID PARADISE

Above the seaside settlement of Parapara, secreted away on a 34 acre lush bush block, this fabulous family home is only 15 years old and without rival in this area. Self-sustainable in every sense of the word without compromise on modern comforts.

Native bush cloaks most of the karst landscape, exploration is invited on tracks and trails, there's even glow worms! Enjoying an enviable microclimate, the home garden hosts an arboretum of established exotic plants and raised vegetable beds. Further up the hill, a bountiful orchard is a veritable food basket. Also being harvested, is solar power, enough to be completely off grid! Water is also prevalent, with no less than three plentiful water sources.

Built in 2009, this award winning architecturally designed home features high ceilings, wide verandas, and the double-glazed joinery frames the views over Golden Bay. The bespoke cherry timber kitchen features a butlers pantry and versatile Rayburn wood stove, with five radiators. Day to day cooking is with gas and no special appliances are required for this off grid power system. The lodge-like interior includes two work-from-home offices, a mud room with shower, family bathroom with spa bath, and a private self-contained guest suite - perfect for entertaining family.

Drive on access leads to a large gravel parking area behind the house. Here, in addition to the internal access garage, a tilt slab 2-bay shed provides extra lockup storage for vehicles and ample workshop space.

Living here, off grid, and with multiple water sources, you achieve independence seldom attained in a location 20 mins drive from town. You also get to enjoy river swims and bush walks all on your doorstep. Parapara beach is nearby too! And, as this property has been shared with family, there's a privately positioned humble habitable shack up on the hill…..you will need to enquire for further details.
