Last Listing description (December 2023)

Welcome to "Coombes Gap estate" located off the Oxley Highway immediately adjacent to Mount Seaview Resort, just 50 minutes from Port Macquarie on tar top highway. A mystical sanctuary of biodiversity sequested in multiple hidden valleys of the upper reaches of the Hastings River yet just 14 minutes from the hamlet of Long Flat, 30 minutes from the bustling regional center of Wauchope and a few minutes more to the beautiful coastal beaches of Port Macquarie on the coast.

In the first instance, be on notice, this is not your average forest land! It is in fact more fitting to style it a reserve or retreat for those that seek biodiversity and nature in all its glory. It is a 2938 acre wonderland of wildlife and lush sub-tropical rainforest layered under the dramatic canvas of Mount Seaview as it unfolds down from the heights of the Great Divide to the valleys and the pristine, bass filed Tobin River and the Seaview Resort itself, established on the banks of the upper reaches of the Hastings River. It is cloaked around its North Western boundaries by the Cottan-Bimbang National Park and ranges from undulating to steep timbered country.

It is comprised of 2500 acres held as 5 Lots under full independent titles and 1 lot (Lot 40) of 438 acres held by Perpetual Lease.

Because of its existing biodiversity it is an absolutely perfect candidate for consideration for a BCT (Biodiversity Conservation Trust) plan. Simply carve out your house block and arable requirements and wrap the balance of the land up with Covenants behind a fence to regenerate itself back to its biodiverse destiny. There are significant economic incentives to utilise this magnificent land holding in this manner.

If your plans were different, options abound. The land has not been intensively logged for over 35 years but selective logging is available. Fencing is sporadic, notwithstanding that there is ample arable land potential. The property has been lightly stocked with up to 100 bullocks in years past. With a commitment to fencing those numbers could significantly increase. It has, for the last 25 years been the life's work of its present owner (a man with a quiet passion for this kind of land) over those years he has collected and assembled the 6 adjacent blocks in order to protect and nurture there glorious sub-tropical flora and fauna that provides the underlying habitat from which has blossomed a literal wonderland of native birds and wild life of all colours, shapes and sizes including but not limited to koalas, wallabies, echidnas, platypus, along with large areas of lush wet sclerophyll rainforest with stands of other mature natives including red cedar.

The property also lends itself to be established as an eco-tourism estate providing kilometers of old forestry trails and tracks leading to every corner of the property, ideal for hiking or trail riding on either horseback, mountain bike or motor bikes. In addition there is extensive frontage and easy aces to the beautiful Tobins River, a perennial stream of the Hastings River catchment and several other creeks including Ralfes Creek which also joins the Hastings all of which flow through the property. They offer great bass fishing and various swimming holes, many that lend themselves to camping and picnic areas. In addition to the land there is a "Base Camp" established on a sunny open saddle around a refurbished Caravan accommodation with full iron roof cover over top, providing a large tractor/carport. It includes a sunny veranda, modern ensuite wing with Gas heating, flushing toilet, solar power and a storeroom wing. There is also all the equipment you could hope for to carry out the restoration or maintenance of the old forestry tracks and fencing including a New Deutz Fahr Tractor with all attachments including a slasher and backhoe, a Farmliner 4x4 Tractor a Val Padana Grader Tractor, a Bulldozer, Polaris Ranger farm vehicle and masses of new fencing materials and other farm stuff.

Having been closely held and purposefully protected by an authentic man, with a genuine passion for the natural realm of the estate, has meant relatively few folk have actually ever had the opportunity and pleasure of being on it! (Those that have call it Kev's Kingdom )

That is about to change.

He has has had to consider the future. Age demands he must pass the property to new hands. The buyer will likely love the natural world and wilderness and probably have a deep interest in the biodiversity of this sub-tropical forests wonderland.

Options abound going forward. The property has all of the infrastructure to continue to be what it has been for the last 30 years. Or it could easily be re-purposed with boundaries realigned allowing subdivision into 3 large home blocks. Keep one and sell two? Any of these could be established as BTC's (Biodiversity Trust Conservation) homestead blocks and help save the planet. Given the location and landscape on offer B&B accommodation is another obvious option with its proximity to the flood of travelers passing nearby on the Oxley Highway.

Or it could simply be a holiday home or weekender retreat. A place to escape, hole up with family and friends. Enjoy the smell of wood smoke and fresh air. The sound of the birds and the sounds of silence......and still help save the planet.

If any of this has resonated with you, take the time to learn more. This is a truly rare opportunity. With respect to price the Vendor is seeking Expressions of Interest. The property is seriously for sale. For more information and independent inspections please call the Vendors Exclusive Agent.
