Your own private forest retreat is waiting in what many Australian’s call “God’s Country”. This is truly a rare investment property that is extremely rich in cultural heritage, flora and fauna. Due to the large variety of plants in the region and in the surrounding national parks, this area is now considered one of Australia’s largest remaining subtropical rain-forest habitats. This rich variety of flora attracts an array of native animals to the property. In particular 3 species of Wallaby: the Red Neck or Grey Wallaby, the Swamp Wallaby and the endangered Rock Wallaby. Other native animals include Echidnas, Goannas, Possums, Koalas, Platypus, Turtles, and a wide variety of frogs and birds, including eagles.

It's understandable that this part of Australia is considered one of the most bio-diverse areas in the country – if not the world - and why many australians often refer to this region as ‘God’s Country’! For the past 10 years, this property has been developed for environmental restoration, wildlife protection, education and cultural continuity. The property can be left as it is - maintained as botanic garden and nature retreat - or expanded upon. If a philanthropic investment is favoured, the charity will be signed over together with all equipment associated with it. There is a large database of people who support this development and

volunteers who have offered their time and skills to continue the vision. If a business investment is preferred, the charity will be dissolved, leaving the new owner with a wide choice of options. The property’s rich fertile volcanic soil is ideal for growing crops, hobby farming or developing into private gardens. The estate provides the perfect environment that can be used for an eco-business venture such as accommodation, a cultural centre, tourist attraction, etc. Income can be derived immediately from the established tree crops and other activities, such as guided ‘Aussie Bush Tours’. is this the dream lifestyle you’ve been waiting for?
