Situated on 18 acres (approx.) of natural bush with a seasonal creek combining comfort, beauty and sustainability, this exceptional property features a meticulously designed rammed earth and granite home, inspired by David Holmgren's renowned permaculture house in Hepburn Springs.
Built with superior craftsmanship, (Ovens and King) this home showcases a passive solar design that maximises energy efficiency and ensures a comfortable living environment year-round. The rammed earth walls regulate internal temperatures, while the north-facing, double glazed windows provide abundant natural light and frame breathtaking views over the productive gardens and large dam.
The open-plan layout features a spacious living and dining area with slate flooring for superior thermal mass, exposed beams, and clerestory windows that flood the space with natural light. A glasshouse further enhances solar gain and provides the perfect environment for growing year-round vegetables.
The beautifully crafted kitchen features red gum benchtops, stringy bark convection-cooled cupboards, and a slow-combustion stove that boosts the solar hot water system. A Smeg oven and cooktop adds modern convenience to this eco-friendly space.
Three generous bedrooms, including a master with walk-through robes, share a central bathroom with a deep bath, separate shower and vanity, with a separate toilet.
A separate studio/workshop with an attractive stencilled floor, wood heater, and ample storage provides practical space for projects.
Outside, the property's self-sufficient features shine, with fruit and nut orchards, a chicken house, raised vegetable gardens, native grasses and two large dams, one of which gravity feeds to the gardens. A large, rammed earth workshop can be utilised as a garage.
Wildlife is abundant, including Echidnas, Black Wallabies and a diverse array of birdlife.
This is a rare opportunity to own a home that seamlessly blends sustainability, natural beauty, and modern comforts, all within the serene surroundings of Beechworth.
