A separate building houses an indoor laundry, complete with ample cupboard and bench space and more storage rooms.

There is also a large custom-built shed, 20m x 9m, with ceiling fans, mezzanine floor and verandah to the front. The solar panels on this also supply power to the house. There are other protective structures for a caravan and boat, so you have the ideal base from which to enjoy all that tropical living has to offer.

The property uses bore water and there are two water tanks. Lots of extras and options: the current owners have enjoyed the eggs from their own chickens, housed safely, and you could consider establishing stables for horses.
