Description
We are looking for a couple to stay in a charming mud brick cottage which has 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, large living area and large deck.
The 75 acre property is mostly bush with around 7 acres of paddock, which we’ll arrange to keep mown, no need for you to do it. The property is alive with native animals: kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, and birdlife come around every day to feed on the lush grass and enjoy the ambience. This sitting would suit someone who loves wildlife, perhaps photograpy. There are also many native flowers to delight those who love to roam the bush.
In early May, we will move out from another building on the property. We would like the property minded until we sell it.
There will be no pets. We’d ask you to help out about 4 hours a week each, initially by helping us move out. More hours help with this task could be paid. After we have moved out, we’d ask you to care for the cottage and its immediately surrounding 1000sqm or so, which is grass that will not be in growing season. And to some extent the roads if they need it, by cleaning out the gutters occasionally.
The cottage is the building on the right of the first photo. It has hot / cold water, air conditioning, and a slow combustion stove. The kitchen has a fridge, microwave, toaster and jug. BYO cooking facilities, eg BBQ, or borrow our frypan. There is a portable outdoor fireplace, and campfire cooking is also possible. We are moving house in early May, and will then sell the property. The property is 6km by dirt road from the Fuel East Lynne store. Access is best with AWD / 4WD vehicle. Electricity and water are included. Telstra mobile coverage is available for phone and internet. The road to the house would not suit a motor home or caravan. There is a site on the property to park a caravan but that site doesn’t have power and water.
All the best, we look forward to hearing from you!
