Stunning Vistas; Productive Acreage; Off grid living

Experience a rare blend of character and modern self-sufficiency on this expansive 101-hectare property with exceptional views. From the original 19th-century stonework to the comprehensive solar infrastructure and panoramic outlook across native forest to the coast, this property offers a unique lifestyle opportunity for those seeking a private retreat, hobby farm, or outstanding off-grid lifestyle.

At the heart of the property is the "Little Stone Cottage," a historic masterwork built in 1863 from stone and mud. The interior retains its authentic soul, with limewashed walls, jarrah ceilings and floors, a separate lounge and kitchen, and a bathroom equipped with both a shower and bath. In 1940, the timber section was built and has more recently been restumped and re-roofed, providing two additional separate rooms that are currently incomplete.

The "Little Stone Cottage" is already approved for short-term accommodation, adding immediate value for those looking to host guests. There is a dedicated vegetable garden beside a winter creek, shaded by mature poplar, elm, and oak trees. Nearby sits an adorable A-frame, currently without power or water, serving as a perfect blank canvas.

At the top of the property, the landscape opens up to stunning views from one of the highest points in Nannup. Multiple walking trails meander through native bush, with some leading back to the cottage, and there is also a natural spring featuring a spectacular 12-foot winter waterfall.

Substantial infrastructure provides ample storage and workshop space. A main shed near the cottage features an insulated anvil floor. While currently approved as a shed, previous plans were drafted for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house on this site. Additionally, there is a small hay shed, a 9m x 13m machinery/hay shed, and a tool and light machinery shed built from two sea containers, all approved.

This property is designed for complete independence, with an off-grid system and bushfire management plan already in place. A robust solar system is housed within a dedicated sea container, featuring 16kW of battery storage and roof-mounted panels. All power is delivered via underground cabling to the main shed and cottage, while a 7kW backup generator is integrated to automatically support the system if required. Connectivity is provided via satellite NBN, with Wi-Fi points at the sea container, main shed, and cottage, all linked back to a central router via Cat 6 cabling.

Rainwater is collected in 2 x 22,500L tanks and pumped to 4 x 25,000L tanks, which gravity-feed the cottage and gardens. There are 8 additional tanks servicing livestock and the orchard of 300 lemon myrtle trees. The acreage is thoughtfully divided into a variety of functional spaces, including multiple paddocks, among them hay paddocks. Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the existing round yard and the designated area where an arena is planned to be built.

With its historic charm and breathtaking vistas, this property stands as a premier candidate for a rural off-grid sanctuary.
