Nestled within the serene landscapes of Tinderry, this breathtaking 40-acre parcel at 1591 Urila Road is a rare opportunity to own a true nature lover's retreat. With over 300 meters of direct Queanbeyan River frontage, this property offers an unparalleled setting for those seeking peace, adventure, and conservation. Surrounded by protected bushland, this is the perfect escape from urban life, providing an untouched natural haven just a short drive from Queanbeyan and Canberra.
The property is a sanctuary for native wildlife, with its open sclerophyll forest having been allowed to regenerate for over 60 years. Echidnas, wombats, kangaroos, and wallabies roam freely, while an abundance of birdlife creates a paradise for ornithologists. The absence of internal fences between conservation-minded neighbours further enhances the sense of an extended natural reserve, making this an ideal location for those passionate about protecting and enjoying Australia's native environment.
The Queanbeyan River, which forms the eastern boundary, offers year-round beauty and recreation. Small sets of rapids at either end of the property frame a long, calm stretch of water, perfect for kayaking, swimming, or simply floating in the sun. Fish, turtles, and even an occasional platypus call this pristine river home, while a resident flock of ducks adds to the charm of this riverside escape. With healthy water quality due to its location within the Googong Dam catchment, the river provides a refreshing and tranquil retreat.
On the western side of the property, a deep gully and seasonal creek weave through fascinating rock formations and natural pools. Gently undulating terrain gives way to open forest clearings and spectacular views across the surrounding hills. Elevated at approximately 800 meters above sea level, the property enjoys crisp mountain air and stunning seasonal changes, from misty winter mornings to golden autumn afternoons.
Adding to the appeal is a vintage caravan, permanently sited with a protective carport roof that doubles as a rainwater collection system, feeding into a 3,000-liter tank. This rustic but cozy setup offers a sheltered spot for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful bush surroundings. As a bonus, a kayak and some equipment will remain for the next owner, ready to be used for exploring the river's natural beauty.
With conservation and recreation as its core values, this unique landholding is an extraordinary opportunity for those looking to invest in nature, adventure, and seclusion. Whether you dream of a private retreat, a conservation haven, or a base for outdoor activities, 1591 Urila Road offers the perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility.
