The Quiet and Easy Life in Lightning Ridge
2 Bedroom House with Granny Flat
Inexpensive and Comfortable “Off-Grid” Living
Aerodrome Rd (WLL 15022) Lightning Ridge
Amazing Value - $89,000
My property gives us the feeling of living in a paradise, with its bird aviary, fishponds, colourful gardens, and vegetation. As well as an amazingly comfortable air-conditioned, 2-bed home, and, I have a self-contained granny flat for extra accommodation.
I am what they call a “camp” in the “Ridge” – a large Western Land Lease (WLL) ex-mining site now Zoned as Residential - ideal for those wanting a relaxed and affordable lifestyle. Coming to visit Lightning Ridge many years ago, my owners fell in love with “The Ridge” and established a business and reliable employment. They chose the peaceful and relaxing lifestyle on their well-equipped and well- established “camp”. Now ready to retire closer to town, into their other house, they just want to downsize and enjoy life in the Ridge with a bit of travel thrown in. Although “The Ridge” seems very remote, it offers so much opportunity for family, business, and adventure. It does not carry the name “The Black Opal Capital of the World” for nothing!
I’m fully equipped with a brand new “off-grid” electrical system including Solar Panels, Battery Storage and Generator. This means no electricity bills! This system is housed in a brand-new 3-bay shed, (soon to have a concrete floor), offering a 2-car garage with indoor laundry. 3 large Water Tanks mean no water bills. Council rates are only $493.15 per year. Western Land Lease annual renewal is around $398. How cheaper can you live anywhere else?
The main house has 2 good-sized bedrooms, open plan kitchen/dining/lounge, commercial gas stove and exhaust hood, hot water, air-conditioning and wood-fire heating. The huge bathroom has a spa-bath, separate shower, vanity, and toilet. The outside pizza oven and BBQ/cooking area is great for entertainment and outdoor living. Two garden sheds provide space for a workshop and lots of storage for tools to cultivate the vegetable and garden plots.
The Granny flat is open planned with kitchen, shower, and toilet.
My 2,485 m2 block is fully fenced, child and dog safe.
Lightning Ridge is a large town with all the modern commercial services, clubs and recreation facilities including the famous aquatic centre and Olympic diving pool. It is a mecca for tourists seeking that magical gem, exploring the underground mines, or just soaking up the art, history and culture of this fascinating place.
