Butterflies and frogs abound in this oasis of permaculture only 10 minutes out of the city. The house sits comfortably in the middle of the 539m2 block and is virtually hidden from the street behind established trees and tropical plantings. It is approached via a raised timber deck which opens into a spacious lounge / dining room and adjacent kitchen. The three bedrooms downstairs all have magnificent views into gardens with green walls of passionfruit and butterfly vines; a secluded piece of paradise. Climbing the structural internal timber stair under which is found an amazing storage unit with 1.2 metre deep drawers and a hinged bookcase camouflaging the under stair storage. At the apex of the stair you enter into the primary whole-of floor suite. This is a massive space in the rainforest canopy with banks of glass louvres, external bird perches and amazing views down into the front frog garden with heavily disguised above ground pond and other water features; a true sanctuary for the world weary. The rear garden is a permaculturists delight. A couple of inground direct composting bins and a chicken coop provide most of the nutrients the garden needs and it is planted with a myriad of established fruit trees and raised vege gardens for the kitchen menu. Built in 1991, this architecturally designed timber home stretches over two levels. More recently clad with solar cells it has become a self-contained haven with four, discreetly located water tanks. It is walking distance from the waterfront restaurant, local shop with post office & fuel bowsers, hairdressing salon, international cigar importer and Mayhems Café.
