NEW PRICE The Good Life awaits...

Fancy a life that includes watching the majestic wedge tail eagles soar overhead; views of valleys and hills for miles and a driveway that meanders its way through bushland before arriving at an expansive hilltop clearing that will instil a feeling of destination upon each and every arrival. A life where glimpses of scrub wallabies, echidnas, wombats and kangaroos are a common occurrence before you've even left the front gate. Add to the mix a classic sunlit mudbrick home, designed and built decades ago to passive solar principles we are now only just adopting as good practice and you have the foundations for an environmentally sustainable life.
Perched high; overlooking the valley of the Chum Creek, with panoramic views north across the Chum Valley to Mt St Leonard and the Pauls Ranges, this home is an unexpected surprise at the end of the winding driveway. As you traverse the kilometre plus long driveway, you pass the main dam, nestled into a gully, as the sense of anticipation builds...
Upon arrival at the crest of the hill, the land opens up to a large clearing of approx. five acres, where the deceptively simple mudbrick home sits. The bulk of the land, 23 hectares approx., remains as bush. Upon entering however, you are immediately struck by the beautiful north facing light and contemporary atmosphere. To the left is a lovely kitchen, with ample bench space, and a generous pantry tucked around the corner, while the dining area makes the most of the view.
The vaulted ceilings in the spacious family room adds to the sense of space. This area is large enough for the family to spread out and have their own spaces and is warmed by a wood heater. The terracotta tiles add to the passive solar principles, acting as a heat bank. Throughout the home, recycled building materials feature, with Fremantle Wool Shed timbers, chapel glass doors, even a beautiful copper door, has been utilised. The majority of the building has been constructed using mud bricks made from the land, with the rear of the home recycled bricks.
Adjacent to the living space is the spectacular atrium, a huge sunroom with endless possibilities for use. An incredible indoor play area for children, a spectacular haven for indoor plants, a beautiful space for yoga and art...
Off this area are the three huge bedrooms, with stunning views and lovely family bathroom, which can also be accessed from the master bedroom.
Eight solar panels are currently installed, hydronic heating is available, but will need reconnecting. Approx. 120,000 litres of water storage is available through a series of tanks, including a header tank located up the hill, with gravity feed. An existing concrete tank has been converted to a shed!
Opportunities abound here to take this home to the next level and create a beautiful lifestyle. A perfect place for star gazing, yoga or art retreats, holiday lets (subject to any permitting requirements); let your imagination run wild. Acres and acres of bush to wander through and explore, an idyllic childhood or adult adventure! While there are some repairs to be made, it also allows for some different options to be explored. The foundation for a fabulous eco-friendly lifestyle has already been forged...
