25 acres of rich basalt soil form the basis of this gem of a property. Fully fenced into 5 paddocks, with about 5 acres of bush included. A beautiful garden surrounds the house including many rare and unusual plantings. A productive orchard provides all your fruit needs and a fruitful veggie garden more than supplies your vegetable requirements. There is also a poly tunnel and a soft fruit cage to help keep you well fed! The paddocks currently run a few cattle, sheep and goats for meat and a little profit, but would be just as suitable for horses or ponies. The house overlooks the Forth valley and river and the outskirts of the village, the primary school, shop/post office, garage and pub are all within easy walking distance, 700 metres. The 19 sq brick and tile house has been completely refurbished including new bathroom, kitchen and laundry. The kitchen now has a combustion stove with a wetback to boost the hot water when the solar hot water panels are not working at their best in winter. The gas stove is for summer use. The ceiling and under floor insulation backs up the double glazing in the main bedroom and helps keep the house cosy using the wood heater. The large deck at the front has a shade sail for summer shade and the glassed-in entertainment area at the rear is great for entertaining in the cooler months as there is a wood heater installed here. The house is powered by 1.65kw solar power installation which is currently "stand alone" but could easily and economically be converted to a grid connect system as grid power comes up the driveway to power the workshop, barn and studio. A wind generator backs up the solar panels during the winter months so there is no need for a back-up petrol or diesel generator. This system has easily supplied all our power needs for the last 4 years. There is so much more, sheds, barn, studio, views of Bass Strait (from the top of the block) a dam supplies water for the garden and stock and a large pond/small lake is just off the garden complete with French style swing seat and small jetty (as in the picture)plus plus plus!! Must be seen to believed. All ready for you and your family to enjoy.
