The Wagawn Homestead
This beautiful home is designed to complement the magnificent natural environment. The design of the home is all about celebrating the surrounding nature and where appropriate, bringing the outside in. Almost every door and every window in the house naturally flows opens out to the stunning views and the wide Australian-style verandahs, adding plenty of additional living spaces. For security, there are Crimsafe security screens on every opening. All these doors and windows also create the ultimate cross breezes and natural breezeways.
The quality of the build of the home is outstanding. The best materials available were constructed by a master builder. In total, there are four, full size bedrooms, each with an ensuite. New Guinea Rosewood timber is used throughout for the bespoke cabinet work, as is the use of Mongolian black marble for benchtops. There is also a full security CCTV security system installed throughout, protecting the home from every angle.
Water, Water, Pure Water Everywhere
Importantly, Wagawn has plenty of that most precious of commodities; water. Wagawn has two distinct titles that enable the extraction of up to 22 million litres of water a year. And not just any water - this is unfettered access to some of the purest water in Australia, from the Great Artisan Basin that is estimated to be more than 300,000 years old.
There are two active bores that pump 12 litres per second or 43,200 litres per hour or over a million litres in a day. To put that in perspective, it takes two and a quarter million litres of water to fill an olympic swimming pool. In total, Wagawn has five bore licenses. There is a total of 250,000 litres of stored water across 6 tanks. Whether you want to use water for domestic or commercial use, and given the reality of climate change, the security of this natural resource is inestimable. As well, there is a sumptuous Saltwater pool - that is ideal for relaxing in, during the long, idyllic summer months.
