Whether your vision is to advance biodiversity conservation, enjoy a peaceful rural lifestyle, or contribute to long-term habitat protection, this exceptional landholding offers the scale, natural assets, and legal safeguards to make a lasting environmental impact.
Just six kilometres west of Albany Highway in Arthur River, within the Shire of West Arthur, this 677.78*-hectare property is a pristine and untouched wildlife sanctuary. The iconic Beaufort River helps form the southern boundary, and the property adjoins the unspoiled Dead Mans Swamp Nature Reserve-a captivating natural landscape that invites exploration, quiet reflection, and immersion in nature.
Approximately two* hectares have been cleared along the quiet Morrell Road, offering potential for a residence, eco-tourism initiative, or conservation-based enterprise (subject to relevant approvals).
The property's natural wetlands and intact bushland are home to an extraordinary array of rare and endangered species, including black cockatoos, red-capped parrots, western rosellas, chuditch, red-tailed phascogales, and quendas. Its swamp systems support abundant frog populations, waterbirds, and diverse aquatic life, forming a thriving and self-sustaining ecosystem.
Vegetation across the landscape reflects its geomorphic wetland character. The low-lying swamp areas are dominated by sedges and rushes that shimmer with seasonal wildflowers, while the fringing zones support stands of paperbark and moisture-loving eucalypts. Shrubs and understorey plants flourish along the margins, creating a rich, living mosaic that shelters birdlife and a wide range of native animals.
The Beaufort River meanders gracefully along the southern boundary, acting as both a scenic water feature and an important wildlife corridor. Despite its seclusion and pristine condition, the property remains easily accessible-only a short drive from Albany Highway. A restrictive covenant is in place to ensure the land's environmental values remain protected, safeguarding this rare natural landscape for generations to come.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a significant conservation property in the South West of Western Australia. With its untouched wetlands, diverse native vegetation, rare wildlife, river frontage, and direct connection to a protected nature reserve, it stands as a compelling proposition for anyone passionate about conservation, eco-tourism, or environmental stewardship. It offers an extraordinary setting to protect biodiversity while experiencing the quiet, breathtaking beauty of this unique region.
