Now this is something very unique, very special, very tranquil and very much suited to the nature lover. Although there is land that can be used for a few ponies, this is really a forest retreat on the river - the owner has lovingly planted thousands of rainforest species plus bamboo and other edible plants to create a natural wonder where you are with nature. You literally feel calm and serene as soon as you get to the house.
The property is also solar powered which adds to the peace and serenity - no meter readers, no power line inspectors, no one! It's just you and nature and yet 18 minutes west of Kempsey down the very end of a little hidden road where you can't hear any traffic - pure privacy and silence.
The shining jewel of the property is the Macleay River where you can easily walk to the edge and jump in for a swim or slip in the canoe. The river is full of big beautiful Bass in this section and you'll have the time of your life reeling them in. It's sparkling clean, deep freshwater.
The center piece of the property is the super large full timber home - a very spacious 2 bedroom, high ceilings and spacious flowing living areas. It rests in a clearing surrounded by rainforest and bamboo plantations.
There's also a separate studio with power, water - it's the perfect place for visitors! And, there's a secret wine cellar below!
If you love plants and forest walks you'll be in heaven here - with amazing bamboo plantation, bushland, rainforests, walkways, foot bridges, gully adventures, lookout point, river views and river bank to explore and wonder at. Also, the current owner has been here for 30yrs and has never used chemicals on the place - it's natural.
