Share D5/1158 Pinchin Road The Channon NSW 2480

Share D5 offers a rare opportunity to live sustainably within the world-renowned Zaytuna Farm Eco Hamlet - a fully approved, eight-share permaculture community set across 66 hectares of flood-free, fire- and drought-resilient land.

This 1-hectare share features gently sloping, terraced (swaled) land, with around half dedicated to established permaculture gardens, orchards, and food forests. The oldest and most productive area, now 20 years mature, thrives on the main swale and produces an extraordinary variety of subtropical and tropical edible species. Over the past three years, the current owners have also established and are now harvesting from an impressive collection of food trees including jackfruit, custard apple, dragon fruit, loquats, Brazilian cherries, lemons, passionfruit, cherry guava, and at least 30 more varieties planted throughout the property.

There are two levelled and serviced house sites ready to build on. The main 30m x 20m building pad features a substantial 40m sandstone-block retaining wall, a stunning natural swimming dam with pump and pump-shed, and a massive semi-underground concrete water tank whose roof forms an entertaining deck beneath a robust Metroll steel canopy designed to support a large solar array. A large shipping container provides storage and space for future batteries or workshop use, and the vendors are happy to share plans for an elevated home designed to take in the beautiful Nightcap Range views. The second building site, 12m x 12m, sits above a lily-covered, spring-fed dam and offers further flexibility for future development.

The grounds include over 37 species of rare clumping bamboo and a wealth of mature fruit and nut trees - including pecan, macadamia, mango, citrus, starfruit, white mulberry, and jaboticaba - all thriving in rich alluvial soils. V-drain work and the internal road system are newly refurbished and built to a high standard.

Zaytuna Farm itself is a model of evidence-based permaculture in practice, recognised worldwide for its education facilities, research, and design. The 66-hectare property includes 27 dams, forested valleys, ten acres of established food forest, and swaled, gently undulating common land shared among the eight 1-hectare owners. Each share includes at least one dam for private use, while the rest of the property and infrastructure are community assets. The farm holds DA approval for ecotourism, allowing owners to generate income through hosting, workshops, and educational programs, alongside revenue from the Education Centre, retreats, camping, and food production.

The community is surrounded by like-minded residents and offers the option to live quietly and enjoy the abundant landscape or contribute actively to Zaytuna’s ongoing national and international permaculture outreach. Walking tracks weave through the common land, connecting to a pebble-beach area on the stunning Terania Creek, which borders the property for 800 metres.

Located within walking distance of The Channon Village - home to the famous country markets - and just 12 km to Nightcap National Park, 18 km to Nimbin, 20 km to Lismore, and 47 km to Byron Bay, this property combines natural beauty, community living, and global permaculture significance in one extraordinary offering.
