Last Listing description (April 2020)
A Magnificent Eco-Friendly Garden of Eden.
This amazing eco-friendly 71 hectare (176 acre) rural lifestyle holding is nestled between the Watagans National Park and the Corrabare State Forest. Unique in every way the property has been thoughtfully and strategically designed to fit in with the natural surrounds. Bounded by green pastures of long established cattle properties, the property has unspoiled woodlands and is positioned between two ridges with three creek lines. Hosting native 500-year old grass trees, Ironbarks, Grey Gums, Spotted Gums, rare native hibiscus and orchids. Described as the Garden of Eden is an understatement.
The exceptional 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom colonial barn style home made entirely from mud bricks/rendered earth manufactured on-site with material from the property is surrounded by 5 acres of fully fenced mature gardens. Inspired by Edna Walling, one of Australias most influential landscape designers, the gardens consist of many rooms with a mix of native and European trees and flowers. Environmentally designed with a clear intent of a low carbon lifestyle, the home boasts a large solar-array producing 7.9kWh in summer and 5.4kWh in winter with its high-end battery bank. The home is a completely off-grid system with a 4-day usable energy battery storage capacity but backed-up by a Briggs & Stratton elite generator when the rare need arises.
Two sheds compliment this gardeners paradise: a small mudbrick copy of the house and a larger timber barn.
Landholdings like SubRosa are few and far between. Congewai is only a 10-minute drive to the nearest convenience store/post office, 30 minute drive from the world-renowned Hunter Valley vineyards and local townships, approx. 60-minute drive from Newcastle and 2 hours drive from Sydney CBD.
