Stunning Passive Solar Off-grid Cottage.

***CLOSING DATE FOR OFFERS 4pm THURSDAY 5th DECEMBER (unless sold prior)***
The little house many might dream of but don’t find - truly one of a kind.
Architect designed with beautiful craftmanship, and artwork built into it from recycled and ethically sourced materials, the cathedral ceiling and open plan with wood cooking range, loft and alcove make for spacious but cosy living. Meanwhile the separate studio and insulated two car garage/workshop with loft, offer further options for living and working.
Perfect for those wanting to live a simple, lower impact, more self-reliant life connected to nature’s rhythms, this energy efficient cottage hasn’t had a power outage in ten years, and energy company bills are a distant memory. The house and the spacious but manageable garden with fruit trees, berries and many food plants and herbs have been a labour of love and exploration. The kitchen has evolved to be very low in energy use, with one small woodfire in the cooking range in winter providing space heat and hot water automatically along with beautifully cooked food and using your favourite energy efficient benchtop appliances to give great flexibility at other times. Add more storage, traditional appliances or a mix of both! The choice is yours.
Features:
• Passive solar designed house to maintain a comfortable temperature year-round. No power bills for heating and cooling!
• Small off grid solar electricity system with mains grid in the street if needed.
• Wood cooking range with wetback
• Hot water supplied by excess solar power about 2/3 of the year and backed up at other times with the wood cooking range wetback.
• Old fashioned ‘cool cupboard’ larder that draws cool air from underground to help store food with less refrigeration.
