Rural Waterfront - Canoe to the Beach -

Secluded and stunning. Coastal riverfront property surrounded by a wonderland of estuarine waterways & only a short boat trip down the Bega River to the beach at Mogareeka (Tathra) or up river to enjoy secluded fishing spots.

Classic Australian, corrugated iron, architecture blends well with the setting and the house sits high on a partly timbered ridge commanding water views on either side and out to the ocean. Elegantly executed, the 2 bedroom house provides plenty of light, space and views. The property is powered by a top end solar power system. A separate studio with bathroom, ideal for an artist's studio or guest overflow, adjoins the garage complex.

Ideal for nature lovers the 19ha (47 acres) runs from the ridge top with large gums down to semi bush flats on the peninsular with the riverfront on one side and a secret wetland lake on the other. A great environment for canoeing and rich in wildlife and birdlife.

Located at the southern end of the Bermagui-Tathra "artists trail" this property offers outstanding seclusion within an easy drive of Merimbula airport which provides daily commuter services to Sydney and Melbourne. Rainwater collection/harvest is via the house and shed roofs.Current storage capability is 20Kgallons/100Klitres.In the "bush" 20,000gallons is traditionally seen as ample supply. and once full the 600millimetres of average rainfall in the Bega Valley ensures they never empty.The property has 2 septic tanks leading into a 50metre long absorption trench.One tank is dedicated to the toilet only,therefore ensuring there is never an unpleasant odour.The other tank is purely for bath,shower,washing machine etc and is available, after filtering, for garden use.
The solar system is a 24volt system powered by 16 photovoltaic panels.The panels produce a DC current which is stored in 12, 2volt dry gel low-cycle batteries.The house is a typical 240volt system standard across the entire country.When you switch on a light or appliance current is taken from the 24volt battery bank and converted to 240volt AC current via a sophisticated inverter.The inverter,complete with its own computer and battery charger,is linked to a 5KVA diesel generator.This "set-up" is known as an "interactive system" which simply means that if the sun has failed to shine sufficiently and/or too much power has been consumed the generator will automatically start up and run for an hour to provide immediate pow
