An Artist's Retreat - 6 acres
This remarkable small acreage is positioned high on the Great Dividing Range in the Black Springs area, just a short drive from the Oberon township. The current owner purchased the property in 1998 as an inspirational location for her artwork and over the last fifteen years has transformed the 6 acres from a vacant block of land into a ecological paradise for native flora & forna. Michelle has reduced her foot print by planting a huge array of cold climate trees and native plants that also serve as inspiration for her artwork throughout the ever changing Oberon seasons. Birdlife is in abundance taking advantage of the insects that find the plants and ponds home.
Building entitlement has been granted by council for your dream home and power has been connected. There are three Colorbond sheds on the property, the first an American styled barn with Cedar doors, caravan, power and slow combustion wood fire perfect as comfortable camping spot, the second is a tad smaller with a carport and has been used as a studio for artwork and the third is a green house and potting shed. All three have polly rain water tanks and troughs for livestock connected to them. The property has been fenced into several small paddocks with some dedicated to the nine sheep that call the property home and the others for the flora & forna.
