Some properties offer space.
Some properties offer privacy.
And then there are properties like 62 Carroo Lane, Ridgewood, a truly special sanctuary where nature has been allowed to flourish, creating an extraordinary environmental haven rarely found on the Sunshine Coast today.
Hidden at the end of a winding 500-metre driveway, this remarkable 50-acre (20-hectare) estate unfolds as a living ecosystem of towering gums, ancient rainforest, crystal-clear waterways and thriving wildlife habitat.
As you enter the property, the outside world simply disappears.
The journey home takes you past a picturesque dam, through majestic stands of towering eucalyptus and alongside natural creeks before arriving at a beautifully renovated residence nestled amongst the trees.
Approximately five acres surrounding the home have been thoughtfully cleared, creating usable open space while preserving the integrity and beauty of the surrounding forest. The remaining acreage consists of established native bushland and rainforest that has been protected and nurtured for generations.
The result is a property that feels less like a residence and more like your own private national park.
A Wildlife Sanctuary at Your Doorstep
For nature lovers, birdwatchers and environmentalists, this property is nothing short of extraordinary.
An independent fauna survey conducted on the property recorded an exceptional diversity of wildlife during a single four-hour observation period, including more than 40 bird species, rare butterflies, reptiles and countless native insects. Species observed included the magnificent Wompoo Fruit-Dove, Rose-crowned Fruit-Dove, Pacific Baza, Grey Goshawk, Australian King-Parrot, Forest Kingfisher and the iconic Richmond Birdwing Butterfly.
Every day brings new discoveries.
Listen to the call of the Eastern Whipbird from the rainforest, watch king parrots feed in the canopy, or enjoy your morning coffee as colourful birdlife gathers nearby. The property is alive with nature.
