Under Contract - Build your EcoHome on this Land Perfect for Wildlife Lovers and Conservationists as a fine example ecoproperty®

Sold - Durham Lead Vic

Under Contract – Situated 4 kms from the historic township of Buninyong (which is 12 kms from Ballarat on the Ballarat/Geelong Road.)

Approximately two thirds (5.581 ha) of the property is under covenant with Trust for Nature because of its high ecological value. The bush is predominantly Messmate/Peppermint tree cover with Blackwood/Bursaria mid-storey and varied herbaceous groundcover.

The cleared area (3.828 ha) includes the building envelope and the domestic zone for all the human and animal activity.

The building envelope is in a cleared area towards the top of an eastern facing slope which overlooks the occasional creek that runs the length of the property.

Mains power is on the covenanted area boundary. However, this property is perfect for establishing your high quality eco home utilising the many eco designs products and services for off-grid living.

There are 3 dams and several seasonal waterholes.

The area between the main dam and a small wetland area next to Brennan’s Road would be the ideal site to set up a permaculture productive garden. It is flat, has road access, permanent water and good soil. Previously a pony was kept in what is now the rundown paddock and water was pumped from the dam. So this would be the best site for an animal enclosure if you wanted one.

It is a bird watchers’ paradise, also frequented by swamp wallabies, eastern grey kangaroos, koalas and echidnas. Historically a mining area, there are some shallow shafts and mullock heaps remaining along the creekline.

All the necessary reports addressing planning overlays have been completed already leaving you free to plan your dream home with independent power and water.

This is very valuable to be able to commence the process of building your eco home immediately. You can also SMS 0468 489 333 with your request and please advise Durham Lead property.
