The Eastern Dorrigo area is an endearing landscape of majestic gum forests, pockets of lush rainforests with cool mountain streams, and farmsteads of broad open pastures grazed by well-nourished stock. The drive to Cradle Creek Road is beautiful from each direction, either via the village of Coramba or the historic Glenreagh on the Orara Way, or across the plateau from Dorrigo township.
Consisting of 40.84 hectares (100 acres) the property adjoins State Forest and is secluded from the road and neighbours. The land is a combination of large swathes of forest and broad expanses of undulating green meadows featuring gigantic, centuries old trees standing sentinel within a hidden valley. Here you'll see wallabies grazing, glossy black cockatoos flying and hear lyrebirds calling as you discover a meandering freshwater creek with multiple swimming holes.
An elevated, level grassed area at the end of the all-weather driveway, with a north facing aspect and lovely views over the paddock, would make an excellent future home site. You can move in straight away, as there is a quality built 21m x 7.5m x 3m high Colorbond steel shed on a concrete slab, providing a large covered double carport and lock up garaging for vehicles and machinery, plus a sizable, sealed storage room. The verandah connects the carport and garage to the adjoining lined room with high ceilings, and a separate bathroom.
Additional features include underground mains power, a septic tank that is designed to service the current facilities and a future four bedroom house. Rainwater is harvested to two stainless steel tanks with a combined capacity of 45,000 litres. Water heating is provided by an Apricus Solar hot water system.
The nearby hamlet of Lowanna is only a 10-kilometre drive away and offers a General Store/Post Office/Boxcar Café, the Lowanna Public School and a rich history, having once been the centre of a thriving timber industry and gold mining area.
Coffs Harbour is the nearest city, a school bus service provides transport to the public and private schools from various locations in the Lowanna/Ulong area.
