Lifestyle With Investment Opportunity

This 159-hectare property is situated on the picturesque Owen Valley East Road and provides ample opportunity for hunting, fishing, or building a rural getaway, plus potential for subdivision and carbon/forestry income. This is a fantastic opportunity which seldom presents itself to the market.
The property is mainly steep hill country covered with mature beech forest, and includes around 5ha of pasture, 4.5ha of pine forest (planted in 1999), and 22ha of regenerating native forest. The pine forest could be logged or used with the regenerating native areas to produce an income from carbon credits.

A block of this size will provide a lifetime of hunting and exploration potential and borders conservation estate to the rear. Just across the road is the Owen River, regarded by many as a purist river for its large fish and clear water. Imagine having one of the best brown trout fisheries in the country just across the road.

Zoned Rural 2, this size of property provides options for two dwellings and potential subdivision. The two main options for building are at the northern end of the block immediately across the road from the Owen River with a backdrop of beech forest, or in an elevated glade alongside a mountain stream (accessed via a right of way across a neighbouring property). Choose to build off-grid or hook up to the powerline which runs alongside the road.

The property is situated 4.1km up the Owen Valley East Rd and is 97km south of Richmond. Murchison is 23km away for schooling, essential supplies, and cafes.

Sale price is +GST if any.
