About nine kilometres south-east of Nowra and an easy drive to multiple seaside towns is Greenwell Point - a farming community in a picturesque rural setting.
New to the market is a large parcel of land that backs onto Salt Pan Creek and offers 103 acres, which has already proved itself to be a valuable business opportunity. The property has been owned by a long-established Pyree farming family sine the 1950s.
The Crookhaven River and surrounds are known as an NSW state secret, with the aesthetics and amenities having become second to none. Here you have a blank slate to start with, to immerse yourself into the surrounds. Recreational fishing, swimming, yachting and boating are only a small part of this area, the rest is marine and mangrove sanctuaries protected by the State, wetlands that will never be altered in this landscape, preserved forever, providing drought refuge and habitat for a broad range of endangered species.
Currently, the property is an agistment site with an arrangement with a local farmer. With fencing surrounding the property, it is historically rich with pasture feed and has water access via Salt Pan Creek - a watercourse of the Crookhaven River catchment.
Salt Pan Creek, which was recently awarded a government grant, is an important open space corridor for the region, with important ecological communities, mangroves, wetlands, recreational facilities and walking and cycling trails on both sides of the creek.
Nearby properties run sheep, dairy, and beef cattle, however this property has versatility. Regarding zoning, 95% of the property is RU1, covered for most kinds of commercial primary industry production.
Pyree's and Greenwell Point's picturesque town has eateries, a marina and boat ramp, children's playground a community hall and grounds, which host a local farmers and craft market. Beyond this, it benefits from the tourist footfall of Kiama, Berry, Gerringong, and Jamberoo, which have regular and popular markets that bring visitors from across the State.
