The three-bedroom, one-bathroom property is an off-grid, recycled build, and is on offer for $565,000. This is one third of Sydney's median house price of $1,578,099.
On a sprawling 15-acre lot near the historic gold mining town of Braidwood, the cabin is marketed as an idyllic weekender away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

The cabin is self-sufficient with a wood fireplace, a gas hot water system, a fully operating kitchen, pergola and deck.
It uses solar energy which is not only beneficial to the environment but also helps to reduce day-to-day living costs.
The more solar panels you have installed at home, the more energy you produce and the less of a reliance on Australia's electricity grids.

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy gives an explanation of how solar energy works on its website.
"When the sun shines onto a solar panel, energy from the sunlight is absorbed by the photovoltaic cells in the panel. This energy creates electrical charges that move in response to an internal electrical field in the cell, causing electricity to flow."
Interiors ooze rustic charm with barn-style doors, stacks of timber logs by the walls and black accents.

It's also stated on the listing that there's building entitlement, meaning the buyer could build an additional property or their dream home on the site.
The cabin is just a 25-minute drive to Braidwood, a town in the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales.
It's the halfway point between Canberra and the New South Wales' South Coast and is famed for its truffles, boutiques, galleries, pubs and cafes.
