Rugged Beauty

Introducing one of Duns Creek's best kept secrets. This 600 acre or 243 Ha Biobanking block ticks all the boxes for a vast landholding and a delightful escape from the day to day hustle for those seeking adventure. The property has 4 lots on title over 40 ha / 100 acres each and is located in the Port Stephens Council area. Relax, and explore the rugged country charm where several trails cross the property that lead to elevated lookouts with breath taking views.

Location:
The block is located off Uffington Road, at the top of Duns Creek. A sealed road delivers you to the front of the building envelope. At the entrance you are greeted by a bush track, gorgeous trees and the opportunity to build your dream home. Situated 27 minute drive to Maitland, only 1 hour drive to Newcastle CBD and 2 hrs and 17 minutes to Sydney CBD.

Building:
The non-biobank area consists of approximately a Hectare in size. (i.e. 10,000m2 or 2.5 acres) which is a substantial area to create your weekender or ideal home subject to council approval (STCA). You can connect to mains power along Uffington road or build an off grid electricity system. Council will require you to put in your own enviro cycle septic system and of course your very own pure rainwater from the sky. Outside this non-bio bank area the Biobanking agreement (BA) maintains that no domestic animals are allowed. The current owner is seeking Council approval to clear a 400m2 building envelope and required Asset Protection Zone (APZ)

Biobanking:
This bushland has been saved and preserved through the Biobank land management system. This is a NSW state government run initiative. A requirement to owning the block is the preservation of natural habitat. Due to the BA Land tax does not apply to this property if it becomes your second home and/or investment property. You will receive an income from the government that varies from year to year. This income will require you to manage the land possibly through hiring contractors.

We are currently in Year 7 of the active management plan with the report done and paid. Year 8 due at Xmas 2025. Each year a progress report is submitted, and the land is inspected by a NSW Biodiversity Conservations Trust (BCT) representative and provided you are meeting the management requirements, money will then be released for the next year.

Examples of land management practices are;
• Spraying Lantana, tobacco weed and other invasive species.
• Maintaining Fencing
• Feral pest management
• Maintaining access trails

Please see this link to the government website to give you a better understanding of what is required.

This outstanding bush retreat of approximately 324 Ha is an affordable alternative where you can immerse yourself in native Australian bushland with limited neighbours, and still an easy commute to everything the Hunter Valley has to offer.

You are the owner of the entire site and you have the rights to on-sell the block at a later date. The biobank agreement is for perpetuity.

This is a golden opportunity to own such a large parcel of land so close to Newcastle and the Hunter Valley. For further information or to arrange an inspection please call Scott Hunter on 0448 870 068.

Council rates are: $632/qtr
