Located off the Oxley Highway handy to Mount Seaview Resort, just 50 minutes from Port Macquarie on tar top highway is this rare offering. A mystical sanctuary of biodiversity sequested in multiple hidden valleys of the upper reaches of the Hastings River with Ralfes Creek as its Southern Boundary, yet just 14 minutes from the popular 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 1008 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 established on the banks of Ralfes Creek a tributary 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.
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 and would provide useful passive income options. Fencing is sporadic, notwithstanding that there is ample grazing land potential. It has carried stock in years past. With a commitment to fencing this potential could be revisited.
The property also lends itself to be established as an eco-tourism estate providing kilometers of old forestry trails and tracks ideal for hiking or trail riding on either horseback, mountain bike or motor bikes. In addition there is ample water provided by a Ralfes Creek which has never run dry it forms the Southern boundary as it meanders to join the mighty Hastings River. It is reputed to offer great bass fishing and various swimming holes, many that would lend themselves to camping and picnic areas.
The buyer will likely love the natural world and wilderness and probably have a deep interest in birds or wildlife or sub-tropical forests or all of the above.
Options abound going forward. It could be re-purposed with subdivision into large home blocks. Given the location and landscape on offer B&B accommodation is another obvious option with its ease of access and proximity to the flood of travelers passing nearby on the Oxley Highway.
The scale of the block along with its primal wilderness yet reasonably easy access to regional centers such as Port Macquarie and Wauchope provides the potential for a communal retreat
center.
