Experience a self-sustainable way of life, amidst the convenience of the quiet Kelmscott suburbs.

Not only does this property come with a jaw-dropping garden complete with overflowing fruit, vegetables, herbs and water tanks, it also offers not one, but TWO self-contained units.

With 2 fully self-contained granny flats and an expansive main house (large enough to divided into separate living quarters if you desire), this property provides incredible opportunities for large families, at-home businesses, side income from renters/lodgers, and enough space and privacy for happy multi-generational living.

This home truly has limitless potential for the right owner.

Let’s start with some of the highlights of this highly unique property.

THE HIGHLIGHTS

If you enjoy being in the garden, it’s likely you will never need to buy your fruit, veggies and herbs from a store again!

Since the owners purchase in 2013, a lot of love has gone into this property to create a garden with all of your favourites. Large mangoes, navel oranges, figs, grapes, apples, pineapples and pears just to name a few of the things you can help yourself to throughout the day (see the staggering list of what’s available below).

Best of all, all produce has been grown ORGANICALLY with no unnatural pesticides or synthetic fertilisers used in the garden.

Two large water tanks supply the property with fresh rainwater, so despite being a quick walk from the town centre, you have all you need in your own backyard.

From the road, the main home has a classic Australian appeal with a verandah, wood floors to front of the home, a kitchen with a lovely country appeal, and classic styling throughout.

You will be amazed at the size of the main house that seems to expand on and on, with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and large entertaining areas.

If nature walks are your thing, the home is close to beautiful river walks through the state forrest, as well as a short walk to all major conveniences, plus train, bus, school, preschool, agriculture school.

The home has been well-maintained by a woman with a deep love and respect for nature, and passion for sustainable living, and she hopes that the new owners will share these interests and make the most of the homes potential.
