Overview

Set on a sprawling 18.8-acre parcel of lush green paddocks, this unique riverfront property offers approximately 260 metres of frontage along the picturesque Deua River. The land is zoned RU1 Primary Production and features an approved historic cottage with no heritage restrictions, presenting an exciting opportunity for restoration.

Originally serving as a gold rush-era post office, this secluded property combines rustic charm with potential, located just 21 kilometres from the thriving township of Moruya. Its riverbank with sandy shores and lightly treed, level areas provides an idyllic setting for summer camping, swimming, and kayaking, fostering an intimate connection to nature.

This versatile property could appeal to varied lifestyles, whether as a peaceful weekender, a serene retirement retreat, or a family embracing off-grid living, with daily school bus access nearby. It also holds potential for agricultural pursuits or farm-stay style accommodation, subject to council approval.

While the cottage requires significant renovation to become a comfortable home, the property’s affordable price reflects considerable value. The opportunity to craft a bespoke rural lifestyle guided by the river’s calm presence and open paddocks is exceptional.

Overall, the property offers a rare combination of history, natural beauty, and functional land, suitable for those aiming for a tranquil riverfront oasis or exploring rural enterprise ventures.
