Are you interested in a life style that has the potential to save you money in power and other living on the grid costs, then this property may be for you. This is completely off grid living, in a permanently cited Daimler bus that has been approved as a dwelling. This bus is connected to a newly installed sewerage system which takes care of your grey and black water waste.
There is room in the driveway to park your own motor home, if this is your lifestyle, and still have room for 1 or maybe 2 of your travelling buddies.
This off the grid property is in Duntroon in the South Island. It is on the Alps 2 Ocean cycle trail and is very close to Benmore and Aviemore lakes. Duntroon has many attractions such as the Elephant Rocks, one of the many Geosites in the area. A very popular attraction is the Nicol’s Blacksmith Shop and the Vanishing World Museum.
It is only 30 minutes from Oamaru and one hour from Timaru so an easy commute for those working people who want a quiet lifestyle at the end of a busy day.
The property will be sold As Is and comes with most things you will need to live here. It will be fully kitted out with bedding, all that you need in the kitchen and a number of garden implements to name a few things.
The kitchen consists of 900 wide full gas oven, a 2 way fridge freezer, that we run on gas. There is also a dishwasher. This property comes with plenty of storage space with a 20 foot container which holds the solar panels to run the system. The beds in both the bus and the sleep- out are built to allow storage space underneath. The sleepout has built in cupboards and wardrobes. The laundry includes a cassette toilet along with more storage and a washing machine which comes with the sale.
The bus is surrounded by decks each side which allow you the opportunity to be in the sun or the shade.
The off grid power consists of a 12 volt system which runs the lighting and toilet, with a 230 volt system for other electrical requirements. That system is set up as 48kw converter with 3 banks of 4 batteries each running in series and parellel .
