APPLETHORPE VIA STANTHORPE - 'COB' HOUSE + 10 BUILDINGS AND 8 DAMS ON 127 ACRES
Much more than just a house, this property is the result of a 'lifetime' of work. The structures are inspired by South American heritage and designed to blend the lines between indoors and outdoors - still with all of the modern conveniences and plenty of grand touches.
The main residence as well as 10 other buildings have all been constructed by hand with locally sourced rock, mud and hay. The current owners spent close to a decade creating this extraordinary place to live, and in that time, they've thought of everything you could need and implemented it all.
The house itself, is built in harmony with big natural granite rocks which it uses as the foundation and provides features throughout the building. Much of the space is inspired by this and built to compliment it. Most notably, the bathroom has been built on the lower level with access from an internal rock staircase and features a shower nestled amongst the Granite rocks, free standing bath and lavatory with big windows offering plenty of natural light and great views.
The main entrance of the house leads into a spacious mudroom. The entire living then opens up and your eyes are immediately drawn to the feature Granite Rock structures and the floor to ceiling windows and the views beyond.
This large open plan living, dining and kitchen areas intersperced big granite boulders is a beautiful living space.
Stepping out from the main living area you'll find a big undercover outdoor entertainment space with 2 built in pizza ovens and 180-degree views.
Across the rest of the property there are 9 more buildings, some with bathroom and kitchen amenities. The bulidings are a mix of 'Cob', straw bale and mud brick construction.
These buildings include storage sheds, workshops, and additional accommodation. There are also utes set up with fire fighting equipment, tractors, generators, pumps, log splitters and various other tools and implements.
There are 8 good sized dams, some of which are very big and used to pump water up to tanks that feed the house.
This is a very unique property that has everything included for you to continue living the serene lifestyle that has been created around it.
