What to Appreciate
Set in a picturesque and secluded pocket of the Wellington Forest region, Wilyerup offers an exceptional balance of privacy, water resources, and natural beauty. A winter creek flows directly from the forest through the property, feeding a series of dams, waterholes and soaks surrounded by rich soils and diverse vegetation.
Connected to the renowned Geographe winery region and within easy reach of Dardanup, Donnybrook, and Collie, the property feels worlds away - a place where the night sky remains untouched by city lights. The location sits close to the sources of the Ferguson, Preston, and Collie Rivers and links via wildlife corridors to approximately 9,000 hectares of forest, creating a sanctuary for native flora and fauna.
While parts of the property are divided into paddocks, two forested sections and a vegetated creekline preserve an array of endemic species. Permanent pools remain along the creek throughout summer, and several magnificent Zanthorrheas stand proudly along the south-western boundary. The property presents outstanding potential for ecotourism ventures or the conservation of endemic wildlife.
