In an elevated portion of the evergreen Jiggi Valley, this beautiful 15 acres has been the life's passion of the current owners to become a home of sustainable living. A true lifestyle property and oozing the fruits of creative labour, it has approximately 3 acres of cleared land currently home to two horses, many heritage breed chickens, and all manner of wildlife. The remainder of the land is a beautiful forest of tall timbers, some cabinet species, some rainforest species, some mature eucalypt. The forest has vehicle-accessible trails, two seasonal creeks, and is simply delightful. There's numerous fruit and nut trees as well as food producing gardens and the house gardens including shadehouse and versalux covered areas attached to the main dwelling are filled with an array of colourful and unusual foliage plants to treat the senses.
There are two dwellings - each spacious and purpose-built. The main dwelling is an L-shaped log homestead construction with red cedar windows and timber linings. Warm and homely it has 2 large bedrooms and one enormous bathroom as well as a third room used as a childs' bedroom. The large living space and the two bedrooms all open out to a full length verandah on the North-East, and the living, and dining/kitchen areas open out to a sheltered outdoor entertaining area complete with adjoining shade house; perfect for North Coast summers. The second dwelling is a timber L-Shaped one bedroom home with very spacious living areas opening to a wide and private patio. At the rear of this dwelling is a long and practical workshop to please any handy-person or craft worker. This is not the only work space. There are two further large colorbond sheds; one is a double lock up garage, and one is a 4 bay machinery shed. Further to these out-buildings there's a chicken coop and three aviaries. Water storage is more than adequate with a dam, semi-permanent creek and tanks. And for peace of mind the large plunge pool has been re-purposed as a storage facility too.
This is a beautifully 'connected' property, with most rooms in both of the homes opening to the outdoors whilst being connected by patios and walkways to each other. Far enough apart for privacy whilst maintaining this connection, you could operate the two as a home with a remote and private guesthouse, or connect the living spaces for large or extended families. There's mains power to homes and shedding, with a feedback to grid solar system added.
For the 'good life' this offering has got the lot.
