75 Acre Retreat Amidst Ancient Forests
Embraced by the majesty of Wollemi National Park's ancient forests, this approximately 75-acre bushland expanse offers an unparalleled off-grid experience a world away from modern life. Accessed by a rugged yet well-maintained, 4WD-accessible track, this secluded haven is framed by old ironbark and towering Sydney Blue Gums.
The C3-zoned site would welcome a bespoke bushland retreat that captures the tranquillity of its native surroundings. Currently, a half-acre ridgetop clearing houses a unique campsite with essentials such as two water tanks, gas BBQs, an open fire, a pizza oven, and a wood-fired bush bath.
Here, in the undulating landscape and amongst a verdant tree canopy, pure, unspoiled nature is your only company, hosting an encyclopaedia of wildlife, over 120 bird species, wallabies, and wallaroos to the meandering wombats and occasionally curious koalas.
From west to east, the ridgelines offer scenic walking tracks, while the southern boundary hosts a semi-permanent creek and 2 acres of cleared land, with fertile soil ready to grow your own fruit trees and vegetable garden, adding to the property's natural bounty.
Positioned only 200 kilometres from Sydney, and just 30 kilometres north-west from Howes Valley, the estate embodies the ethos that less is more - where WiFi is replaced by wildlife and entertainment comes in the form of the evening stars. However, if you want to be connected to the outside world you may consider using Starlink and set up a small solar system.
If you indeed want to build your dream home or family retreat the zoning permits this (STCA).
