As the name suggests there is a population of Superb Fairy Wrens everywhere, darting here, darting there, darting everywhere. The Tookayerta Creek flows steadily by and feeds the natural bushland habitat which provides the wrens and a myriad of birdlife with an environment safe from predators.
The rural lifestyle afforded by the 4.06 hectares of land surrounding the home which is located suitably off the main Tooperang to Mt Compass Road. Pastures border the bushland allowing open space and grazing to complete the picture.
The comfortable 3 bedroom home is sheltered from the road and any severe weather conditions by a narrow strip of native vegetation. Open plan living with ducted air conditioning with a verandah at the rear and large timber deck at the front to soak up the atmosphere and views. Approximately 40,000 litres of rainwater is held in 2 tanks with an electric pump servicing the house.
The views – sitting on the front deck is a sight to behold. The native bushland sits a comfortable distance from the house and provides the perfect habitat for the multitude of bird species therein including the Blue Wrens. The area surrounding the house has a sprinkler system installed to water the lawns and natural grasses and which is mowed to provide a safe area and improve the outlook. The sprinklers are fed by an electric pump from a permanent spring within the creek.
A near new shed approximately 12m x 8m has a concrete floor, power and lighting, a pit, sliding doors and PA door. An adjacent shed is used as a workshop. Both sheds are fully secure. A high capacity diesel generator sits next to the workshop to power the property in the case of an emergency and is included in the sale. For the enthusiast, a ham radio tower sits beside the house.
If you are looking for a ‘rural retreat’ this could be the answer. A rural location with an entrance only 200 metres from a bitumen road, permanent sprinklers set up to water the grounds at the flick of a switch, shedding, rainwater, electricity and back-up generator, and a neat 3 bedroom home on just over 4 hectares –
