Introducing Wedgetail Ridge.

A one hundred acre property which gained DA approval about 5 years ago for multiple dwellings as an eco tourist facility. Located just to the south-west of the picturesque and historical township of Stroud in New South Wales, this property runs from a sealed road frontage at the bottom of a horse shoe mountain up to the ridge at the top. Predominantly north east facing, protected from prevailing winds and open to the north east breeze, this land has something quite unique.

Down the bottom there are two dams and a gently sloping two acres or so for a residence with access to power and water. And from there you can take the road up to a wide ridge area which is about three quarters of the way up the mountain. Of the properties that own portions of the mountain, this is the only one that has access up there. The road maintains a gradient of around ten degrees, which is suitable for some two wheel drives but not all.

The ridge area is your escape. It’s not the sort of thing you would expect to find at the end of this bush track. It has a cabin, outdoor kitchen and shower, flushing toilet, outdoor spa, and a chicken coop/run, all surrounded by a forest of spotted gum, iron bark, grey gum, white mahogany and terpentine. A large water tank fed by a spring provides for an abundant water supply. With a huge catchment the spring water flows for a day or two after a good rain. And a short walk from the cabin brings you to a rock outcrop we call ‘the boulders’, something to be seen, with it’s own little eco system.

The zoning also allows for construction without council approval for primary production purposes; ‘farm buildings’, or exempt and complying development.

There is a road that runs along the ridge at the top of the mountain that takes a back way over the top to Stroud. Stroud is a ten minute drive from the bottom, Newcastle one hour. Barrington Tops not far away.

This is the perfect combination of ongrid/offgrid for those who see the value in having a backyard forest hideaway that provides a space for independent living. And yes, on occasion wedgetail eagles can be seen soaring above, and along the ridge of this beautiful piece of New South Wales.
