1060 Dry Creek Road
Scone, NSW 2337

Dry Creek, located at 1060 Dry Creek Road, Scone, NSW, is a secluded wilderness property nestled in the headwaters of Dry Creek, approximately 32 kilometers north of Scone in the foothills of The Liverpool Range. This property is the last one in the Dry Creek valley, offering complete privacy and tranquility. It is surrounded by Towarri National Park and Wingen Maid Nature Reserve, which are rich in diverse flora and fauna. Despite its remote feel, the property is conveniently accessible from the vibrant towns of Scone, Muswellbrook, and Maitland, with Newcastle also within easy reach via the Hunter Expressway.

The property boasts approximately 460 meters of frontage to Dry Creek itself, featuring attractive swimming holes and various picnic and camping areas. Additionally, there are two more creek systems on the land. The location offers spectacular views south down the Upper Hunter Valley, north towards the remote Crawney Pass area, and east to the Barrington Tops.

Dry Creek comprises six lots arranged in an unusual end-to-end configuration, creating a long corridor of land that extends across three valley systems for nearly three kilometers, showcasing a variety of landscapes.

At the center of the property stands a new 14 by 6 meter Metrol shed, fully insulated and built on a sealed concrete floor. An external covered living area is supported by a 5100-liter rainwater tank and includes a large, professional-grade stainless steel sink and food preparation bench. The main shed section features a roller door leading to a 4 by 3 meter external concrete-floored Versiclad skillion. This living area offers views across the forested valley to distant hills, providing a perfect setting for family gatherings or quiet contemplation.

Surrounding the shed is ten acres of mowed land, which ensures excellent wildlife viewing opportunities and provides bushfire protection. This area, along with others on the property, has undergone extensive regeneration with local rainforest species native to The Liverpool Range, all grown from local seed.

The property includes two dams, both professionally stocked with crayfish. It is an unfenced wilderness retreat, making it unsuitable for agriculture but highly appealing to nature enthusiasts, especially bird lovers, or those seeking absolute solitude and privacy amidst tall forests. Its border with Towarri National Park and undisturbed surroundings offer extraordinary wildlife viewing opportunities.

Tall trees are a prominent feature of the landscape, along with a spectacular deep and narrow canyon carved through sandstone, marked by a waterfall, caves, and rock pools. Access to Dry Creek typically requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle, traveling through Towarri National Park and crossing nine creeks amid spectacular rock formations and areas of warm temperate rainforest.

The property is unfenced and therefore unsuitable for livestock. Additionally, it is not eligible for a building entitlement.

This property represents the ultimate nature retreat, offering seclusion where the only sounds are those of birds and wildlife.
