Experience the pinnacle of sustainable living without compromising on modern luxury
Whilst the land has been transformed from a dairy run off into a forming tree filled oasis, there is still plenty of room for animals - pets, beefies, sheep … you name it , the paddocks are well fenced and also have secondary chicken netting to help with lambs .
The whole design is well considered, with 80,000 litres of water storage . 50,000 litres gravity feed to the house providing great water pressure even if the power is out .
With the addition of the gourmet wood burner , if you lose power you will still have heating , cooking and hot water . That’s resilience .
The fruit trees are just beginning to show the results of structured pruning , bearing good crops of stone and pip fruit , with the grapes following closely behind . There are abundant citrus plantings which have been tenderly nurtured so that they can flourish in a semi protected environment.
All the trees have been planted for your ongoing shelter and privacy , and two wood lot sections have also been planted out for future harvest .
The trees are young . All the expense and effort already expended for your future enjoyment. This place will just keep adding to its own beauty .
When clients or guests arrive they always comment on the peacefulness and outlook . It really is quite a jewel , which must be viewed to be appreciated.
