energy independent nature retreat

Strikingly modern and crisply detailed, this five-bedroom home is nestled within a site of profound natural beauty. Delivering on space and light, the split-level interiors feature lofty depths and strategically placed glazing that invites both sunshine and moonlight. There is a lovely balance to the floorplan that effortlessly accommodates family life, with the home spilling out to broad decks that open towards rolling grazing land and the encircling mountains.

Think tree-change with a contemporary twist-where the architectural forward-thinking of a high-end city build meets absolute sustainability. In an era of unpredictable fuel crises and soaring energy costs, this property offers ultimate peace of mind and true energy independence. An outstanding 14.24kW dual solar array paired with a massive 30.72kWh battery system allows you to run the home and the reverse-cycle ducted climate control guilt-free. Better yet, say goodbye to the petrol bowser; you can power your commute to Canberra’s inner north using the dedicated 7kW EV charger, driven entirely by the sun.

The long driveway, lined with elegant crepe myrtles, welcomes you home. This is a complete lifestyle offering: fresh country air, home-grown vegetables, and space for the kids to roam free with trail bikes and horses. You can follow the sun as it moves across the day, dappling the walls with light, warming the northern deck with its endless vistas, and setting the sky ablaze come evening. The communal spaces are incredibly generous, featuring open-plan living, dining, and cooking, alongside a sequestered media room and a versatile second living area.

The kitchen is a visual standout, featuring patterned waterfall stone benchtops, textured tiling, and a sophisticated palette of midnight black and honeyed timber. Think soft grey tiling, striking timber panelling, and broad timber-look flooring. Voluminous sheer curtains drop from ceiling to floor, while slender pendant lighting sets the house gently aglow in the evenings.

Privatised to the east, the master wing spills out to the deck and delivers a walk-in robe alongside a generous ensuite bathroom. A cleverly placed clerestory window allows you to shower beneath the glow of the moon. Splayed to the west, the children’s wing serves up four bedrooms, all with excellent storage. Here, a central second living area shape-shifts as required-be it a playroom, craft studio, or study. The three-way family bathroom is perfectly designed for the morning rush, and a large internal laundry offers extensive cabinetry and direct access to the garden.

Bywong is a highly sought-after rural hamlet edging Lake George, just moments from Bungendore Village. Surrounded by rolling hills, big country paddocks, and views across the Lake George Escarpment, the area is defined by its natural beauty and tranquillity. Bungendore provides all your essentials with an award-winning IGA, great cafés, restaurants, excellent services, a primary school, and an upcoming high school. It is an easy drive to Sutton for artisan sourdough and coffee from the Little Sutton Bakehouse. For a wider cornucopia of shopping and dining, Queanbeyan is easily accessible, and you are a mere 29.7 km to Dickson and 32.6 km to the Canberra CBD.
