Ultimate Off-Grid Getaway

Hidden away in a remarkably private and tranquil setting, this property is all about true off-grid living—designed for those who value independence, self-sufficiency, and a simpler way of life, free from covenants or constraints.
Spanning approximately 17 hectares (more or less), the land is largely covered in native bush with pockets of grazing, creating a natural, low-impact environment ideal for anyone seeking to disconnect and live more intentionally. Elevated to capture expansive rural views, the setting offers a constant reminder of the peace and space that come with living off the grid.
At its core is a cleverly converted shed, now a fully functional off-grid home. Powered by solar energy and supported by established water and septic systems, the property is already set up for sustainable, independent living. It's a practical, low-maintenance base that allows you to step straight into an off-grid lifestyle without compromise.
Inside, the open-plan living space is warm and efficient, centred around a well-equipped kitchen and complemented by a mezzanine level for sleeping or storage. A fireplace and heat pump ensure comfort year-round, balancing rustic simplicity with everyday ease.
Outdoors, the focus shifts to living in tune with the land. A generous deck takes in sweeping views and features a firepit—perfect for evenings under the stars, completely removed from the noise of modern life. The outdoor bathroom, fully connected to the property's systems, adds to the off-grid experience while remaining functional and well-considered.
A separate lockable cabin provides flexibility for guests, extra accommodation, or secure storage, while ample space for vehicles, equipment, and stock yards supports a self-reliant, hands-on lifestyle.
A dam positioned below the home enhances both water access and the natural ecosystem of the property, reinforcing its suitability for sustainable living. Whether you're growing, grazing, or simply enjoying the land, everything here is geared toward independence and connection with the environment.
Private, self-sufficient, and thoughtfully set up, this is a rare opportunity to embrace off-grid living in its purest form—where simplicity, freedom, and the rhythms of nature define everyday life.
