Lower Pappinbarra NSW 2446

After 13 years running (and loving) Oakvale Farm at 1024 Pappinbarra Road, Lower Pappinbarra, the owners are downsizing to a smaller property. They've loved this location, both for its incredible nature and the community it's a part of. There's the river to relax in on a hot summer day, the huge amount of birdlife that will turn you into a twitcher whether you want to or not (Wedge-tailed Eagles, Grey Shouldered Kites, Kingfishers, Wrens, Finches, Robins, etc), or watching the platypus play in the river through the kitchen window, there's just something quite magical about this place.The 321 acres of 'Oakvale Farm' is inland from Port Macquarie, so you can be at one with nature, and remain close to shopping, services and beaches in only a 45-minute drive. Starlink internet means you're connected with the world faster than most Broadband services, so working remotely is a breeze. Here's some options for what you could do with it Keep farming it.It's carried a solid breeding herd, the yards and crush are set up and ready, and the water security here is genuinely good, high average rainfall, with 1.5km of Pappinbarra River frontage and a 16ML licence, five dams, tanks, and troughs in the paddocks. It's 240 acres of cleared land in 8 paddocks, with grass currently up to your knees! And then there's carbon farming you could investigate for the back hills, if you want to see what else is possible - the current owners were just about to investigate this when their new plan hatched.Dual income potential.Run the farm - grow hay, run cattle or other livestock - or focus on the HipCamp business, which can easily be expanded. Do both like the current owners have. Or just come up with your own idea. There's plenty of ways to make this place earn its keep, don't limit yourself by these ideas.Or just live it.Sometimes there doesn't need to be a plan. If a slower more relaxed lifestyle is what you're after, you can do that here too! Your morning coffee on the deck watching eagles fly over the hills, putting a line in the river for bass or mullet, ride horses around the hills, see your kids or dogs with more space than they know what to do with. Have a party where your friends don't need to drive home afterwards. Sometimes the return on investment is just experiencing this as your new "normal".And what about the house?It's an incredibly roomy home with 4 large Bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs. The downstairs area was recently given a full refresh. Both levels have their own kitchen and bathroom and are easily self-contained. Add a small wall and you could have two separate entries easily if you wanted to divide it up. You could rent part of it out, use it for AirBnB accommodation, extended family, or multi-generation accommodation. The views from any of the three decks are will have you asking 'how's the serenity' and a huge solar system makes up for when the kids forget to turn the lights off. In the Area.You're 10 minutes from the small village of Beechwood, where the local primary school is (bus picks up at the driveway), as well as a hotel that's been rated the 'Best Country Pub in NSW'. Half an hour to Wauchope (High School, Supermarkets, Fuel, Rural Supplies, some amazing Coffee Shops and unique local shopping) and 45 mins to Port Macquarie Airport if you need to travel.Other key highlights 16 car spaces (yes, you read that right) Established gardens and orchard with fruit and nut trees 5 sheds to house your 'projects' Three phase power to sheds Sealed road to the front door Established 'HipCamp' profile and business with 5-star reviewsDisclaimer: All information contained herein is obtained from property owners or third-party sources which we believe are reliable.
