Welcome

We are the owners of a 1.4 hectare block of land on the Central Coast.

The site includes areas of rainforest which have been badly overrun by non-native plants. Our project is to restore the rainforest and to build an environmentally sustainable house on the site.

This blog records the bush regeneration work we are undertaking and the progress on building the house.

Last post

It has been a few weeks since the last post because we have been waiting for two things to happen.  Firstly, for the electricity to be connected and secondly, for the Occupation Certificate to be issued.  Thankfully both were completed in the second week of December (after much trauma) and on Wednesday 21st December we finally moved in.

It is a strange feeling to be living in the reality of something we have been dreaming about for 3 and a half years.  At the start, and particularly because it was Christmas, it felt like we have gone on holiday and were renting someone else's house.  Now that we have finished the unpacking (some of the boxes we hadn't opened for 4 years!) it now feels like home.

Below are the latest photos of the house to show you how it turned out.
