Overview

Invest in Nature, Peace and Serenity.

DEPOSIT TAKEN - If nature and wildlife are your passion, then this could be your new home. Situated at the very end of the road and perched on a ridge with far reaching views, this approximately 25 acre property offers peace, privacy and the chance to immerse yourself in nature. It would make the perfect writer's retreat and has done for the current owner for the past 16 years. THE LAND is a unique pocket of environmental wonders. It was gazetted as a wildlife refuge in 2008 by the Biodiversity Conservation Trust (BCT). In 2009 a Property Vegetation Plan was registered in perpetuity which covers 2.2ha of Northern Dry Tallowwood forest and 4.5Ha of subtropical rainforest areas. The property displays high intrinsic natural values, with the majority of the 10.12ha supporting Eucalyptus and Rainforest communities. It contains a significant proportion of High Conservation Value Vegetation, including state significant Endangered Ecological Communities and habitat for protected and threatened species including koalas. The size and location of the property, including its connection to significant areas of vegetation to the West and East, earmark it as a significant strategic property to increase landscape connectivity between the Nightcap and Mackellar Ranges. It is located in a high priority wildlife corridor. Over the years the current owner has worked tirelessly to improve the the environmental value of the property with removal of weeds over 3ha and regenerating the natural forest. His commitment to works on this property has sparked interest from surrounding neighbours who have also committed to environmental restoration projects extending the environmental connectivity in the Rose Rd area. Grants are available for the continuation of this work. The list of native plants, animals, reptiles and birds seen on this property is too extensive to include but can be obtained upon request. No less than eleven species of frogs have been identified and live happily in the 3 spring-fed dams that supply the household water along with a separate rainwater tank for drinking. Walking tracks take you through the forest under the canopy, where if you sit quietly, you will experience the daily comings and goings of the natural residents you share the land with. THE HOME is a simple affair. A one roomed timber cottage with a loft for sleeping and a balcony for catching the morning sun while witnessing the forest as it wakes up around you. It has timber floors throughout and a combustion fire for winter warmth. East facing and with great elevation, you will enjoy the cooling effect of sea breezes as they filter through the forest to your home. The kitchen has a gas stove, the bathroom/laundry is rustic and can be accessed from the house and the outside. A new double chambered compost toilet can be accessed from the balcony. A SECOND DWELLING has been commenced but stands unfinished, awaiting a new injection of enthusiasm to complete. Live simply or build yourself another home whilst living in the current one, the choice is yours. This property could also make for the perfect weekend getaway. Whatever you choose, you know that you will be investing in the future of our native flora and fauna for generations to come. * Fully off-grid with solar power * 14km to Nimbin * 13km to The Channon * 33km to Lismore * 114km to the Gold Coast Airport Call Jacqui on 0439 15 6666 or Sundai on 0413 751 184 to arrange your inspection.
