Did someone say desert oasis?

An acreage property has hit the Alice Springs market with dirt bike track, in-ground pool, outdoor kitchen, fire pit area and modern family home with a wraparound veranda.

Plus there’s a granny flat, solar power and a huge shed with kitchenette, bathroom and office.

Set on a 1.81ha block, 20 Chateau Rd, Connellan, is on the market for $1.375m through Drew Hendriks and Toni Rowan of Alice Springs Realty.

Ms Rowan said “the dream rural property” offered a perfect blend of functionality, sustainability and leisure.

“The wraparound verandas provide stunning views of the surrounding landscape, and having solar panels is not only environmentally friendly but also a great way to save on energy costs,” she said.

“Having a granny flat is a convenient addition, offering flexibility for guests or extended family members.

“The outdoor kitchen, fire pit and swimming pool are ideal spaces for relaxation and entertaining.

“Plus, beautifully planted arid climate trees and shrubs add a touch of natural beauty while requiring less water, which is perfect for a rural setting.”
