Welcome to "Ralfes Creek Mountain Estate" a wilderness property located off the Oxley Highway close to Mount Seaview Resort, and just 50 minutes from Port Macquarie on tar top highway. This is 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.
This is not your average forest land! It is in fact more fitting to style it a reserve or wilderness retreat for those that seek to escape to biodiversity and nature in all its glory. It is a 1202 acre wonderland of wildlife and forests including 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 local creeks, streams, rivers and ultimately the Seaview Resort itself, established on the banks of the upper reaches of the Hastings River. The land is cloaked around its North Western boundaries by the Cottan-Bimbang National Park and ranges from undulating to steep timbered country.
Comprised of 1202 acres held as one large Lot. There are multiple access ways including the most direct in from the Oxley Highway at the entrance to Ralfes Trail or alternatively come in off the Oxley Highway onto "The Old Highway" where Ralfes Creek meets the Hastings River West of Long Flat.
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 many years and the vendor says significant selective logging is available in the near future. Fencing is a mixed bag. The boundaries fences are in reasonable condition but if cattle are planned there would be work to be done. Notwithstanding that, there is ample arable land potential for that kind of venture if desired.
There is a rustic, long established basecamp. It is quite handy to the creek and was, in days gone by a base for forestry workers, loggers etc. working in the bush. It is surprisingly substantial. A significant quantity of native hardwood timber has been utilized in its structure. If required it would make a great base for a hunting or fishing lodge. The Vendor says it does not leak and is warm and convivial. It is off the grid and powered by a generator. It is old school but works. Conversion to solar would be simple.
The property seriously lends itself to being established as an eco-tourism estate providing kilometers of old forestry 4 x 4 trails and tracks leading to every corner, ideal for hiking or trail riding on either horseback, mountain bike or motor bikes. In addition there is extensive frontage of beautiful Ralfes Creek, a perennial stream of the Hastings River catchment and several other creeks many of which flow through the property or along the boundary. They offer great bass fishing and various swimming holes, many that lend themselves to being established as camping and picnic areas.
Alternatively it is perfect for a retreat or Sanctuary.
Or it could simply be a site for 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 detailed information and independent inspections please call the Vendors Exclusive Agent.
