Seclusion and priceless views in Dargo

by
12 May 2025
in Local News

Conveniently located just three kilometres outside the Dargo township, this is country life at its finest.

The beautiful brick two bedroom (plus study) character home offers privacy and stunning north-facing views towards the Dargo township and Mt Birregan from every room.

The elevated property is set on 38 acres of cleared and native bushland with an array of wildlife regularly seen.

The property has dual-access for more convenience, and includes a grazing licence along the dividing road. The driveway meanders to the well-hidden homestead, crossing a small, picturesque creek along the way.

Live fully off grid with the stand-alone solar power including an auto-start 7kW

backup generator.

Brand new 15kW of lithium batteries have just been professionally installed.

Continue the off-grid lifestyle with an energy efficient designed home, raised veggie garden beds, grape vines, olive trees, an abundance of fruit trees, chicken enclosure and lots of rain water storage.

The main homestead is constructed of handmade mud brick and features slate floors, floor to ceiling stone fireplace and hearth, handcrafted cabinetry plus marble kitchen and bathroom benchtops and shower base, combustion stove (with water jacket), beautiful high raked ceilings, bamboo wall coverings and a rooftop sprinkler system which add to the unique character of this high country escape.

Outside is a huge undercover alfresco with outdoor fireplace and stone pizza oven, plus a large shed with concrete floor and power as well as extra parking space.

The insulated bungalow could be used as a teenager retreat or crafting room and is well insulated with a kitchenette, wood heater and lots of storage.

There is also a cabin which will come fully furnished so you can effortlessly continue the AirBnB listing which is a great little income earner.

The cabin features an open plan living/bedroom with kitchen, bathroom and toilet and quirky features plus an outdoor camp fire with seating and a verandah to kick back and take in the incredible views.

The property has one dam, two smaller paddocks, two larger paddocks and a new set of small-animal yards.

The front 19 acres is fully fenced, well maintained and currently running 20 goats.

The rear 19 acres is natural bushland providing a generous supply of firewood for the home’s wood heaters.

If a peaceful life where you can draw in the crisp fresh air is what you’re looking for, then this off-grid, bushland oasis is ready to welcome you to a world of possibilities.
