The property displays high intrinsic natural values, with the majority of the 10.12ha supporting Eucalyptus and Rainforest communities. It contains a significant proportion of High Conservation Value Vegetation, including state significant Endangered Ecological Communities and habitat for protected and threatened species including koalas.

It is located in a high priority wildlife corridor.

The list of native plants, animals, reptiles and birds seen on this property is too extensive to include but can be obtained upon request. No less than eleven species of frogs have been identified and live happily in the 3 spring-fed dams that supply the household water along with a separate rainwater tank for drinking.
Walking tracks take you through the forest under the canopy, where if you sit quietly, you will experience the daily comings and goings of the natural residents you share the land with.
THE HOME is a simple affair. A one roomed timber cottage with a loft for sleeping and a balcony for catching the morning sun while witnessing the forest as it wakes up around you. It has timber floors throughout and a combustion fire for winter warmth. East facing and with great elevation, you will enjoy the cooling effect of sea breezes as they filter through the forest to your home. The kitchen has a gas stove, the bathroom/laundry is rustic and can be accessed from the house and the outside. A new double chambered compost toilet can be accessed from the balcony.
A SECOND DWELLING has been commenced but stands unfinished, awaiting a new injection of enthusiasm to complete.
Live simply or build yourself another home whilst living in the current one, the choice is yours. This property could also make for the perfect weekend getaway. Whatever you choose, you know that you will be investing in the future of our native flora and fauna for generations to come.
