Bigger than the whole town of Maydena, here is a rare opportunity to purchase 97 acres of pristine Tasmanian wilderness, inter-spaced with pastures and rivers. The famous Tyenna trout river forms one kilometre of the boundary of this fabulous property, Junee creek passes through another section. There are numerous structures including a hay shed, former bakery, sheds and horse shelters.
The majority of the land is unspoiled wilderness abounding with unique Tasmanian flora including rainforest eucalypts, minor species of blackwood, myrtle, with sassafrass and manfern glades. The area positively abounds with a vast variety of native bird and wildlife.
On the property is a large farmhouse (circa 1900), this has been unoccupied for many years and would need extensive work to make habitable. If renovation doesn’t appeal then there are a number of suitable sites for building, most with town water available.
The property lies astride the Junee Cave State Reserve Road, providing access for 2wd vehicles to many sections of the land. A popular horse riding business for tourists was formerly operated from this acreage, serving groups of up to 10 riders.
With the Junee Caves just 4 kilometres down the road there are opportunities here for various Eco-Tourist ventures (stca), from horse riding to trout fishing, bushwalking or even a simple rural retreat or B and B type accommodation.
The property is zoned rural/residential. It is located just a few minutes walk to the Post Office and Maydena shops, 45 minutes to historic New Norfolk, with Hobart 75 minutes away.
The entrance to Mt Field National Park and its’ renown Russell Falls are just 10 minutes up the road. With the new Maydena Adventure Hub and the proposed tourist railway into Maydena (which is the nearest township to the unparalleled Florentine and Styx Valleys) this is an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of an area that may well be Tasmania’s ‘next big thing’ as it’s the gateway to the world famous Southwest Wilderness.
