A Midlands Escape with Space, Serenity and Possibility

Embrace relaxed Midlands country living on 16.3ha near Piggly Wiggly — room for livestock, spring-fed dam, off-grid 24-panel solar, 3-bed main house, 1-bed cottage.

Set in the sought-after heart of the Midlands, this beautiful smallholding offers a wonderful opportunity to embrace a slower, more rewarding way of life. Just 5km from Piggly Wiggly Farm Stall, the property enjoys a tranquil country setting while remaining within easy reach of the Midlands’ many attractions, schools and amenities.

This is an amazing place to raise a family, enjoy the outdoors and experience the pleasures of farm life. Whether you dream of keeping animals, creating a productive smallholding, growing your own produce or simply having space for children to explore and enjoy, this property offers endless possibilities.

The comfortable 240m2 main home provides a warm and inviting family environment, with three bedrooms and a dedicated office. There are two bathrooms, including a beautiful en-suite bathroom overlooking the lush garden, creating a peaceful and private retreat. The welcoming living areas provide plenty of space for family time, while the country atmosphere makes the home particularly inviting during the cooler Midlands months.

A spacious 90m2 one-bedroom cottage adds valuable versatility and is ideal for extended family, visiting guests, rental income or a private work-from-home space. The property also offers four staff rooms with a communal kitchen, providing practical additional accommodation.

The outdoors are where this property really shines. There is generous grazing, a large, well-stocked natural spring-fed dam and a smaller runoff dam, creating excellent opportunities for livestock, horses, farming projects or simply enjoying the natural beauty of the land. Two large sheds and a smaller shed offer abundant space for equipment, storage, workshops and all the necessities of country living.

Adding to the property's appeal is its impressive degree of energy independence. A 24-panel solar installation with a 20kW system supplies power to the main house, cottage and staff accommodation, with a backup generator providing additional peace of mind.

With its combination of comfortable accommodation, abundant water, grazing, outbuildings and off-grid infrastructure, this is a property where you can truly make your country-living dreams a reality.

Bring the family, breathe in the fresh Midlands air and enjoy the freedom, space and simple pleasures of farm life.

This is not simply a property — it is a place to build memories, create a lifestyle and call home.

Come and discover your own piece of Midlands heaven.
