MOUNT RAVENSBOURNE IS AN ENTIRE 60 ACRE HILLTOP, TOTALLY PRIVATE, WITH FABULOUS VIEWS. AT 780 METRES ABOVE SEA LEVEL, AND 45 KM NE OF TOOWOOMBA, IT OFFERS THE MOST EXCLUSIVE BUILDING SITES.
Approximately two-thirds of the area is original native sub-tropical dense vine forest, with some eucalypt to the west, and supports much wild life.
Bandicoots, pademelons and wallabies are resident, along with rare birds in the forest, and a multitude of frog species.
The open areas are planted with approximately 500 grafted avocados, organically registered with Aus-Qual. As only a small percentage of the land is planted, regrowth scrub could be cleared for a further few thousand avocados.
There is a deep fully-equipped bore supplying a small volume of delicious and tested potable water, pumped to a large rainwater storage on the hill if needed. There are many possible sites for further bore exploration.
Dense forest offers wind-breaks from the South and East, without which there would be 360-degree views to the horizon, this being the most prominent hill in Ravensbourne. On a clear day the Bunya Mountains can be seen 100km away.
A PERFECT PRIVATE AND ROMANTIC SETTING FOR CAMPING, GLAMPING, AND SELF-CONTAINED CABINS, WITH EITHER FOREST HIDEAWAYS OR MAGNIFICENT VIEWS, WITH NO ROADS OR PASSING TRAFFIC.
Landscaping provides maturing native trees, particularly Bunya, Hoop, Kauri and Norfolk Island pines, plus two ephemeral frog-ponds and various trial fruit trees etc..
Images of fruit, starting with the Nashi Pear in hand, are:
Isabella grape vine
Brown Pine edible berries
Bunya Pines

White Sapote (delicious)
Macadamia nuts
Blue Quandong berries
English Oak (Quercus robur)

...........and two photos of the table under a big fig.
Access to the magnificent panoramic Mt. Ravensbourne hilltop is via a long private drive through dense vine forest. At the top the trees give way to an endless expanse of open kikuyu and views to the very distant horizon.
There is a pretty two-bedroom chalet, pictured, off-grid and self-sufficient in solar power and hot water.
There are many magnificent sites for a grand mansion, with a choice of views in every direction.
As entire hilltops are rare, and as this is finest and highest in exclusive Ravensbourne, the value is difficult to assess, consequently any offer comparable with local sales will be seriously considered.
