The property offers ample space for outdoor activities, with a large garage (7m x 4.7m), a greenhouse and separate utility and log shed. The surrounding cottage garden was designed by a landscape architect and features a large 4-square vegetable garden edged by fragrant lavender, and an abundance of fruit, nut and olive trees. A trail winds its way through a mature woodland featuring Eucalyptus and flowering Acacia, in addition to a wide variety of indigenous shrub and understory trees that provide habitat for a diversity of birds and pollinator insects. It is ideal for those interested in embracing self-sufficiency and enjoying fresh seasonal harvests throughout the year.
