Last Listing description (August 2026)

A truly unique opportunity to embrace private, self-sufficient living in the Australian bush.

This much-loved, north-facing home forms part of the established Mackellar Range Trust, a 50-year-old Multiple Occupancy and Rural Land Sharing community of just 17 shareholders and families. The purchase includes a 1/17th share and beneficial interest in approximately 221 hectares of native forest, with waterfalls, creeks, swimming areas and abundant wildlife.

Access is via a 6km single-lane 4WD road, ensuring exceptional peace and seclusion. The property is surrounded by spectacular natural bushland, including magnificent Xanthorrhoea, and is home to echidnas, bandicoots, wallabies, goannas, koalas, possums, microbats and abundant birdlife with the occasional dingo adding to the wild character.

The charming off-grid home offers one loft bedroom, office, galley kitchen and bathroom, with a Nectre wood stove and wetback. Solar power is supplied by a 24-volt, 900-amp lead-acid battery system installed by Rainbow Power, while water is supplied by more than 70,000 litres of storage and gravity-fed to the house. Solar hot water is supplemented by the wood heater's wetback.

Outdoor living is beautifully integrated into the property, with an undercover kitchen, gas stove, cob pizza oven and grape arbour. A productive food-tunnel garden provides easy access to fresh herbs and salad, while established terraced rock gardens and a mature orchard feature avocado, citrus, mango, macadamia, lychee, peach, feijoa, Davidson plum, dragon fruit and other unusual fruiting plants.

Additional improvements include a separate composting toilet, laundry, studio/workshop, two-bay carport, undercover caravan for guest accommodation, stone tool shed, chook house and guinea pig house.

Community is an important part of the lifestyle. Mackellar Range Trust is managed by its volunteer beneficiaries and relies on member participation, regular meetings and working bees. A three-month trial period applies to prospective purchasers. A $1,000 joining fee also applies.

Whether you're seeking a private bush retreat, artist's haven, self-sufficient lifestyle or a place to reconnect with nature, this is an extraordinary opportunity to renovate or recreate and make this special property your own.
