$1,950,000 - $2,100,000

Come and discover a property that’s so much more than just a home—it’s a tribute to the beauty of the Australian bushland and a celebration of sustainability. Dog River, as this magnificent 123 acre (50 hectare) wonder is affectionately known, invites you to experience a lifestyle that’s as luxurious as it is environmentally conscious.

This isn’t just any property—this is the one that won the prestigious Master Builders Australia National Environment and Energy Efficiency Residential Builder Award in 2015. Hidden from the world, the winding driveway builds a quiet sense of anticipation—and the moment you pass through the gates, it’s like entering your own private sanctuary.

This architecturally designed rammed earth home, stands as a stunning work of craftsmanship. You’ll be drawn in by the polished concrete floors and the sweeping banks of windows that frame unparalleled views of Mount Tarrengower and the dam in the valley below. And when the sun sets, you’ll forget your devices even exist—completely mesmerised by nature’s show.

The open plan living, kitchen and dining space are made for memories—whether you’re entertaining or sharing a bottle with your better half. A wood heater adds warmth in winter, while the inbuilt timber shelves throughout the home infuse it with undeniable personality.

Every inch of this home reflects careful thought. The clever Z-shaped floor plan includes 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a powder room—all designed to capture the golden western views.

Comfort is paramount here, with wood-fired underfloor heating, reverse-cycle air conditioning and ceiling fans to ensure you’re in the perfect climate all year long. Not to mention the abundance of floor-to-ceiling storage, because who doesn’t love a home with room for everything?

The outdoor space? It’s a garden lover’s paradise, with an irrigation system nourishing the mature, native plantings that attract a chorus of birdlife. There are 6 productive vegetable beds to feed your soul (and your stomach), a 4 bay steel shed and a 2 car carport—because practicality is just as important as beauty.

Oh, and did we mention the 120,000 litres of rainwater storage at the house, with an extra 66,000 litres at the shed? Plus, 5 dams holding approximately 4 megalitres of water. It’s sustainable living, done brilliantly

Safety and security? They’ve been given top priority with an accredited fire bunker, roof and garden fire sprinkler systems and an integrated security system with cameras and an alarm. And for those working remotely (or simply needing the internet for streaming), the NBN service is top-notch.

With Dog River, you’re not just buying a home—you’re stepping into a lifestyle defined by luxury, sustainability and a deep connection to nature. Off grid and on point – your next chapter begins here.
