This unique 3 storey A frame house is located on a 24 hectare (59.3 acre) coastal property. It is only 3 kilometres as the kookaburra flies from the Pacific Ocean. On a quiet night, you are able to hear the tranquil sound of waves greeting the shoreline of Rules Beach. The property has a 500m privacy buffer of vegetation between the house and the road. An added bonus is a 3 kilometre track from the rear of the property, through state land, giving greater accessibility to the coast.
The owner has poured two and a half years of dedication into the construction of the house. Gum Top Box and Bloodwood logs form the massive frame which was assembled on the ground. It was then stood on site. Much of the remaining components of the house frame are of hardwoods milled on the property. The roof is corrugated zincalume steel. The remaining walls are hardi-flex. The house plan and septic has council approval. The inside of the home needs to be fitted out for final inspection. This is the opportunity to have the home completed to your taste.
Standing an unusual 3 stories high, and yet to be internally fitted are the 2 bedrooms, 2 studios, 1 study, 3 bathrooms, 3 toilets and 1 great big living area on ground level. In total there is 234m2 of living space. The ground floor is a concrete slab while the other two levels have hardwood flooring. On the second level, the main bedroom has a personal balcony made of hardwood planks and beautiful timber rails.
Between the house and native vegetation at the rear of the property is a large open paddock with sandy textured soil covered with thick blue couch. The property is fully fenced with a lockable gate at the driveway and is just perfect for a couple of horses. 25 acres around the home has been cleared for the orchard and paddock.
The natural vegetation on the property consists of melaleuca, wattle and gums trees. The back bush land is stunning, untouched, native palm trees, fern, and several types of gum, wattle and melaleuca.
