Garry Knapp Realty

This unique 100acre property is offered after over 30 years with the current owners who fell in love with it, and the community/family-friendly lifestyle, in 1993.

The very spacious, meticulously renovated, retro-style 4 bedroom home sits on a stunning ridge that accesses distant views in all directions. At 600m elevation, you can see the ocean horizon and the peak of Forster's Cape Hawke. Being on the escarpment there is a comfortable frost-free microclimate that catches cooling breezes in summer.

Home site of the former 'Raynham Park' estate, the land was previously used for prime cattle-breeding, and dairying before that. The original estate was subdivided for life-style farm let living in the early 90s. Our Vendors have engaged in extensive rehabilitation of native rainforest with stands of mature trees grown from seedlings planted in 1995, now supporting abundant wildlife. Approximately 8 to 10 acres remains cleared and highly suited for agricultural pursuits, with rich organic soil and legal easement access to unlimited water from a spring-fed dam with storage capacity circa 130,000 litres in 3 tanks.

The property is on the grid and also has roof -top solar panels and a solar hot water system.. In addition it has a Council approved septic system.

The paddocks have been maintained but not grazed for a number of years. Some fencing remains but  New owners will need to re-fence the unfenced sections according to their needs. The main shed stands on a substantial concrete slab still stands and is functional but will need renewal or renovation in due course.

Located along the Tourist Drive 8 route, the gravel road is generally well-maintained by Council as infrastructure that is important to the region's economy. The property itself has an excellent newly-re-laid driveway. No 4WD is needed. There is enormous potential for tourist accommodation, with the famous Ellenborough Falls Reserve located only minutes away. Similarly, the general store, post office, community hall, public school and fire brigade are all within a short easy drive, or even a healthy walk for the active!

Motivated vendors have loved this property but needs must and they have decided to let it pass on. Expressions of Interest are invited.

Please call Garry for price guides information and viewing times.

Every day I wake up in paradise. Only minutes from the hustle and bustle of nearby Port Macquarie, our morning view is the tranquil site of old man river (the mighty Hastings). Distant kangaroos are always feeding leisurely on the recreational reserve that is part of the Riverpark Estate amenities and provides the green buffer between us and the river. The Roo's are under the watchful eye of the ever-present yellow-crested white cockatoo's and other perennial Aussie bird life including King Parrots, Kookaburra, Galahs, Rainbow Lorikeet and so many others that occupy the precinct. Provence Close is established on an easy elevated contour facing North, overlooking the reserve, which is owned by those of us that live in The Riverpark Estate at Sancrox (it's a French word and is pronounced Sanquar). Riverpark Estate is one of Ports best kept secrets. It's a bit of a hidden gem and most folks in Port are not that familiar with it. Truth be told the Riverpark locals like it that way.

Notwithstanding all that, Lot 79 Provence Close, the subject of this narrative, belongs to our neighbours. They have held it for a long time and had dreams of building and retiring onto it but things have shifted direction over the years and they have made the tough decision to let it go. They have given me the responsibility of introducing the market to it.

This is going to be a pleasure.

Lot 79 is a stunning 8000m block (circa 2 acres) with a wide road frontage, providing multiple options to maximise views from every window and vantagepoint. of the land'.  It's arguably, the best block available in the Riverpark Estate today. Situated deep inside the estate on an elevated flood free rise, with a Northerly aspect, it looks up and across the river. Its notable features are the grove of protected native trees including Tallowood and Blackbutt, that run along the crest of Provence Close, offering a partial native screen of the residence from the Close itself. The trees are home to the native birds that flock to the abundance in berries and nectar they offer. The vendor points out that he has collected over time, enough felled timber (its neatly stacked on the site), to post a rail fence the entire allotment, with ample firewood to boot. What a fun project that will be. The block  catches the Northeasterly breeze (which is so welcome in the summer) and neatly avoids the worst of the Southerly's. It slopes very gently from the curb and channelled cul de sac down onto the owners Reserve, that is in effect a village green concept. Come fly kites, walk, picnic (by the river) play friendly cricket or kick a ball. Plans are in place for future amenities (STA) including an all-weather tennis court, a boat ramp and jetty to facilitate boating, fishing, paddling and small boat sailing (bringing the river recreationally alive for those of us lucky enough to populate its banks)
It's ready to go and offers its lucky buyers the perfect canvas on which to create their dream. The Vendors had concept plans that can be shared but the truth is it offers few restrictions to build whatever your heart desires.

There is a Management Plan for the estate that includes extensive tree planting, which will eventually create leafy lanes and beautiful recreational areas by the river.
With lush greenery and mature trees already dotting the landscape, you'll enjoy your own private sanctuary, where the hustle and bustle of city life feels a world away.

This prime parcel of land is not just about the river and views, it is truly a sensational location, being just 3 minutes from popular Abundance Nursery and CafÃ©, 5 minutes from vibrant Sovereign Hills shopping precinct and 15 from Wauchope or Port Macquarie with its beautiful beaches, local cafes, shops, and all the amenities each of them provides.

And don't underrate the bonus of this offering. With this block, you're not just buying a Torrens Title Free hold site you're also becoming a part owner in The Riverpark Estate itself, with your purchase comes the modern Community Title. You're investing in an estate with amenities and riverside waterfront lifestyle that is so obviously growing at a real pace.

There is no fixed price. The Vendors are inviting Expressions of Interest which will remain confidential.
So, if any of this resonates with you and you want to know more including some idea on price range, call me anytime 24/7. Robbie and I purchased next door a year ago. We love it. I can give you all the data you need to understand the title and the benefits of the estate.

A Premium &quot;Riverpark Estate&quot; Lifestyle Block

Located 3 hours from Sydney CBD on closely held Pilot Hill, Harrington's most prestigious location, is this truly rare opportunity to secure a property that is as they say, "often sought but seldom found". 
The existing view from this property is beautiful as you would expect from a costal location called Pilots Hill.  Gazing east out over the Lagoon and Northern break wall, to the distant ocean, past Harrington sand spit, and then south over the Manning River and surrounding hinterland, it just keeps giving, but there's more, much more.  I 've seen the view from what might be called one day "the second story" and that view is eyewatering.  World class.  It pulls in the entire break wall, the Brother Mountains, Crowdy National Park, Crowdy Head and hundreds of kilometer's of coastline down to Foster, Manning Point, The Manning River itself and beyond. If you chose to make some alterations and build up a bit you will liberate this amazing bonus.
In the meantime, all the above is within a stone's throw of the tide. Glorious sunrises in the mornings, with fresh fish and chips just an easy amble down the hill for lunch and ample convenience shopping and coffee handy all day.  Come evening you can hear the lap of the waves washing onto the beach below they seem to whisper, come fish.  
If that is not enough to fire you up, jump in the family wagon and head north up the coast a handful of kilometres (10 minutes at the most) and you will find the world's best kept secret, Crowdy Head. A glorious holiday destination for those in the know. It enjoys multiple beautiful crystal white beaches and the most perfect boat harbour you could hope for. A safe haven fit to launch any leisure craft you could tow. 
Harrington is off the radar, the traffic from the south just flies past heading North. That is not going to last. This place has got a big future, and 9 High Street is a gem in the Harrington Crown it will be much sought after and an enviable asset for years to come for the lucky purchaser. 
The home itself is charming and character filled with liberal uses of hardwoods. It is a handsome convivial freshly renovated 3-bedroom waterfront bungalow. The main living area enjoys delightful sea views to the North and a seamless flow to a large functional kitchen.  The master suite offers walk in robe and renovated ensuite, The other two bedrooms enjoy  a renovated full bathroom. There is a sunny and private patio/deck towards the rear providing easy access to a spacious Single garage, a teenage retreat and additional storage.  The whole package is literally across the road from a coastal parkland reserve.  
Properties like this are often closely held for generations. This could be a once in a lifetime opportunity.

A Coastal Gem hideaway with eyewatering sea views.

If you're part of the 'escape to the country tribe', take a serious look at this offering.  

The present owners have held the property for years as the 'family farm', their bolt hole and escape from the city. It's a morning's drive from Sydney and the nearest supermarket is at Wingham, 40 minutes down the hill. It is perfectly private, but only 5 minutes from the village of Elands with its  Post Office and general store. It's on the tourist route for those wanting to view the famous Ellenborough Falls or enjoy the ambience of the natural swimming hole which are just minutes from the homestead, in the same catchment. Comboyne with its cafes and convenience shopping is 25 minutes away and if it's important, the beautiful coastal beaches of the mid north coast are about an hour and a quarter away.

This honey pot of a property starts with the land and the creek. Approximately 60 acres of north facing slopes with an easy rolling contour and eyewatering sunny views out over magnificent native trees, to the distant mountains. It has significant stands of mature native hardwood trees along with large open areas of arable grazing land, creating a mosaic of a welcoming old rural farm. It is not obvious, but it is water secure from a crystal-clear running creek and a spring fed dam. The water course descends the gully creating a waterfall, perfect for cooling off on hot days. Abundant bird life are another feature with black cockatoos, owls, rosellas, eastern parrots, fairy wrens frequently seen and the odd wedge tailed eagle sighted while take the tribe tramping down the water course and forests on weekend adventures.

The property has no flooding issues and enjoys significant quality internal fencing with some recent concrete post fencing installed, the balance of boundary fencing is best described as 'average rural'. The addition of cattle yards would make the property ideal for grazing livestock, as the previous owners made a significant effort to maintain open, weed-free pastures. Volcanic soils are a feature or the property, and combined with above average rainfall, plenty of sun and mild frosts, make the property generously fertile for growing your family's food. 

The accommodation is comfortable, a convivial base camp or cosy farmhouse. It's connected to the grid and fresh water for the house is captured from the colour bond roof and held in a 10,000 litres tank next to house. There is an additional 5000 litre water tank next to the tractor shed. The building is sound, watertight and warm, a blank canvas, pregnant with potential. As is the interior makes you feel like splitting a log or two, lighting the fire and settling down with a glass to enjoy  the glow. The family and their dogs who have loved it for many years, visiting weekends and extended holidays, say it has been perfectly fit for purpose for them.  

Reliable internet (with the Telstra tower at Elands) and nearby Post Office means you could easily turn a weekend away into a longer stay and work from home.

As a matter of interest, all the photo images used here, are from the family album. I have not done my thing with drones, photographers etc yet. If we don't snag a fast sale, all that will follow in a few weeks' time.
So, if any of this resonates with you, gather up the family and dog, top up the wagon, and head for Taree/Wingham. Come take a look.
We have now established a fixed price. The vendor had plans to tidy the grounds up and bring it to market with a splash in the spring. As things have panned out, a window to sell now has opened up. It will never be more reasonably priced than the next few weeks! Call me to discuss things in in more detail.
We are open for viewing on Sundays around 11 am but if intending to view please call me to ensure we will be open. Alternatively, we can make special viewing arrangements
