REMARKS
Access to “Timberock” is through some area of native bushland before the country opens up to an overview of the whole property with rolling undulation, quality pastures and the timbered areas of the State Forest in the background. “Timberock” has so many features in place that would appeal to those who are conscientious of the environment. The solar power, the organic garden with ability to increase to a viable size, the unlimited water pumped by solar power with no cost and the direct access to the State Forest where bush tracks can lead through up to 30kms of pristine regenerating natural bush land are all features that are hard to find.
In addition the pasture country and water supply in this convenient but hidden valley allow for a beef production enterprise that could quite easily be converted to totally organic.
“Timberock” is a special smaller property that is within an easy commute distance from so many centres. The local district is noted s a caring community that supplies employment, recreation and sporting facilities at both Yackandandah and Dederang.
