Lifestyle Acreages on the Coast
Welcome to Wattlebird Estate A Thoughtfully Planned Lifestyle Acreages on the Coast 10 Minutes from Nambucca Heads NSW 24 Lifestyle Acreages from $230,000
How big is a lifestyle acreage? Let’s put some perspective on it. One acre is equal to 4,047 square metres (or 43,650 square feet or 0.4047 hectares if you prefer other measurements). So even a five-acre property is more than 20,000 square metres in size. Compare that to the average residential block size in Australia of around 500 - 600 square metres, and you begin to get an idea of how big a small acreage actually is. Wattlebird Estate have land available from large one (1) hectare lots (2.4 acres), with the largest block Lot 12 being a huge 9.37 acres‌more than enough space for your dream home, a chook pen, good undulating well drained productive soils that provide endless opportunities, including a horse for the kids.
Quiet, Secluded…Near the Ocean The Nambucca Valley on the NSW Mid Nth Coast is characterised by Australia’s best average moderate temperatures, a unique scenic location with a welcoming community, lovely quiet towns with modern amenities and great medical facilities, including a newly announced hospital soon to commence construction, and a great choice of schools available in Nambucca Heads, Macksville and Bowraville. Wattlebird Estate is ideal for people looking for a break from suburbia and who want to enjoy being outdoors without ‘buying a second job of large acreage ownership’.

Rich Fertile Soils…Beckoning Creative Opportunity Micro-Farming…It’s a Thing! A recent study with more research underway by The University of Melbourne found over 51% of Aussies grow food in their own back yard! The research also suggests that a further 12% are considering doing the same thing within the next 12 months. Whether it’s growing a few herbs and tomato’s, right through to full scale fruit and vegies, meat resources etc…it’s on trend and on the rise. At Wattlebird Estate, the topography, rainfall, soil type and general climate provides a perfect haven to enjoy home grown produce…or possibly take on a larger scale project such as edible flowers, or micro-greens which restaurants and cafés are going nuts over! Naturally if a larger scale project is in your sites, it would pay to check out the usual things required to own and operate a business. The Mid Nth Coast of NSW is planned and gearing up for solid growth over the next few years, Wattlebird Estate boasting rare smaller acreages sits in a prime location…you may want to check it out.
Horsing Around at Wattlebird Estate With acreage lifestyle lots (2 acres – 9 acres) and if you have a passion for horses or it’s a little more serious than that and there’s more than one horse involved, Wattlebird Estate can certainly cater to your needs. The perfect ratio of horses to paddock is 1-1.5 horses/2 acres…of course you can’t have half a horse, but you get the picture…right? So…at Wattlebird Estate, if you have 2+ horses, the available land ratio is perfect…and some room to slot in possibly growing your own feed…and not just for your horse! If you’re new to the equine industry there a loads of resources on-line to answer the many questions that arise around horse care and maintenance, a great place to start is Department of Primary Industries NSW (dpi.nsw.gov.au) and AHIC – Australian Horse Industry Council.
Citrus Groves – When it’s a Lifestyle Choice It’s the perfect combination…a choice of 2 acre – 9 acre lots, gently sloping well-drained soils and a moderate climate. If you’ve dreamt about or it’s been a plan to grow a small crop, the choices at Wattlebird Estate open right up to growing Avocado’s, Banana’s, Blueberries or Citrus! Citrus is the highlight here as there is a wide variety within the Citrus family that can be grown with some varieties of lemon as an example can produce more than one crop per year. Another interesting fact about citrus is that a lot of varieties can remain on the plant once they have ripened for days or sometimes weeks…meaning the labour intensity is reduced leaving more time to enjoy the lifestyle of living on a small acreage 10 minutes to the beach. If getting into a niche within the citrus industry is on your radar, it’s worth taking a look at Limes. There are native varieties…these are Finger Limes that produce ‘caviarlike’ pearls of fruit, Tahitian, Kafir…and the list goes on. Either way, it’s all about having the space and the necessary pieces in place for it to all come together. At Wattlebird Estate we have the availability of lifestyle acreage lots for it to happen.
Micro Brewing or Distilling…Craft Beers and Spirits are on the Rise Imagine…you drive in the gate of your very own piece of paradise, 5 acres of undulating land literally 10 minutes from the beach at Nambucca Heads – Wattlebird Estate. You head down to the shed where you now have the space and freedom to setup your very own micro-brewery or distillery…and the first batch is coming off your production line. Of course, you’ll need to enquire about the necessary permits or licence to distil or brew at home, safety is the key to having fun…right? You invite a few friends over, fire up the wood-fired pizza oven, maybe even have a fire going for everyone to sit around…and you break out the inaugural sip! I don’t know about you…but that sounds like a great time right there. Whether you’re into alcoholic beverages or you prefer the non-alcoholic sparkling varieties, there’s something for everyone when creating a self-sustainable environment at home.
