A seasonal creek and 9 spring-fed dams ensure an abundance of water for stock even in the harshest of times. Fire trails ideal for walking, horse riding or mountain bikes traverse the property which is also blessed with a wealth of native flora and fauna. A permaculture vegetable garden and 70 tree orchard irrigated from the large front dam will please those seeking a more self-sustainable lifestyle, while also delighting guests with home grown fresh fruit and vegetables.
