760 NEW ENGLAND HIGHWAY, Tenterfield NSW 2372

"Seven Sixty" is a unique 9.245-hectare retreat, close to the thriving high country village of Tenterfield NSW. It features a 2 bedroom country weatherboard cottage which is stylish and recently renovated. The home is set in a natural amphitheatre of native gardens within the sight and sound of a stunning and rare section of Tenterfield creek.

The surrounds have been thoughtfully landscaped to minimise upkeep, and highlight the numerous granite outcrops.....while also affording lawned areas and a fully fenced vegetable garden. Raised beds and fruit trees offer the avid gardener hours of pottering. There is a 3 bay colorbond garage, fenced off from the house which is currently used as a rustic abode. A bespoke outdoor bathroom, complete with composting loo ....with its own deck and amazing views is waiting for some creative touches! The home is fully off grid ! What an amazing attribute in these high cost-of-living times with soaring energy bills! The system is 1.7KW capacity and the current owners manage their 2 households comfortably. The system has been upgraded in 2022 with 12 brand new 800 AH acid gel batteries. These are managed by a PL60 controller and require no maintenance. There is plenty of water provided by a sizeable dam which gravity feeds to house and garden. Also rainwater tank storage and a firefighting pump on the creek.

The house has a northern aspect , with north and west facing verandahs. There is a walk in pantry, a kitchen with aspect to die for. The living area is open plan with a lovely aspect. The well appointed bathroom and laundry serviced by a rinnai instant HWS and the internal toilet is on a septic tank with recent compliance approval from council. An electric pump provides good household pressure.

This property is being sold reluctantly. Its position, so close to town with its natural beauty and attributes ia hard to relinquish. The owners liken it to living in a national park....but 5 minutes to town. This combination makes this property such a joy to reside in....and is why we refer to it as 'the rarest of gems'.
