134 Tierneys Road, Mengha, Tas 7330

Get away from the crowds and live the good life. This rare 9.11 acre property offers a totally private and self sufficient lifestyle. This property is located in the rural area of Mengha on a quiet country road which is an easy 10-15 min drive to the historic seaside town of Stanley (pristine beaches and Cafes), or the town of Smithton and only 5 mins to local shop/post office at Forest. The acreage is basically half cleared and half native forest with a beautiful manfern lined permanent creek with towering gum trees and offers habitat to a huge array of wildlife. The cleared area around the cabin is surrounded by forest and has lots of natural shelter and absolute privacy with no close neighbors. For the greenthumb, there’s 3 greenhouses, berry and vegetable patch which will keep your pantry stocked year round, plus a chicken yard with automatic door should you wish to keep poultry. Then there’s enough pasture for a couple of sheep or a horse. The well insulated home was built in 2007 and is compact and functional with 2 bedrooms, combustion oven for cooking and wetback along with backup LPG hotplates and hot water. There’s a huge covered deck area with woodheater offering sundrenched afternoons to enjoy a quiet drink, and courtyard at the rear with pizza oven. The professionally installed off grid power system has 3 KW of panels, as new Lithium battery bank and an auto start 8.5 kva genset for backup. Cleverly designed water system from 4 poly tanks – rainwater from the home and pump on creek are both pumped to elevated tanks on the property and then gravity fed to gardens and house. Other outbuildings include “the Doghouse” - a comfy sleepout, carpenters own fully equipped workshop, woodshed, 2 carports and a shipping container for storage. Most of the items as photographed are included in the sale such as all furniture, and extensive list of hand and electrical tools, chainsaws, and hydraulic wood splitter. Very hard to find property so well established with off grid systems and privacy such as this – you won’t be disappointed.
