Currently on TV here they are airing Wanted Down Under, and now Helicopter Heroes Down Under
In Wanted Down Under is shows people checking out relocating down under, and they view several properties, examine job prospects, work out the cost of living etc, and determine if a move is a viable proposition.
Therefore that is why I did a search regarding properties in Australia.
The site I looked into is Right Move, and there were a few of interest on there but the one that stood out was that property I posted pictures from, as for us tinkering petrol/diesel head types it offers a lot.
This is the Right Move link.

Although thinking it through, and taking into account the climate details that you mentioned addo, then it might not be so good being out in the sticks, with very high summer temperatures.
I also subsequently did some more research, and ending up doing that on the site that you linked to addo.
Here is the info on that site regarding the property I mentioned.

So it might not be such a "right move" to go for this one, so the research goes on, for something similar in a more bearable location.
