2,693 hectares of mountain bushland - your unique opportunity to buy a magnificent forest in the midlands of Tasmania!
Nutrien Harcourts is excited to present for sale, for the first time in almost 100 years, an extensive estate straddling the municipalities of Oatlands and the Central Highlands.
Table Mountain presents a distinctive landmark where the property skirts the eastern slopes and dips down to the southern shores of Lake Crescent. Conveniently situated close to the Midlands Highway, it is an approximately 1.5 hour drive to either Launceston or Hobart.
A privately owned native forest of considerable size, this property is comprised of 9 titles with a substantial land area of approx. 2,693.2ha (6,655 acres) and will be offered for sale as one holding. Each title was acquired in or after 1929 for the agistment of sheep and has been in the same family for close to 100 years. Declared as a Private Timber Reserve, periodically the forest has also been selectively harvested and has received a grade 1 certification.
Approached from Interlaken Road, the property boasts quaintly named locations including Wild Pig Tier, Little Jones Lookout, Boggy Marsh and Lake Crescent. Boundaries, summit and the shore of Lake Crescent are accessed by a network of well maintained, graded, gravel roads. Supported by an annual rainfall of about 551mm, the Blackman River and the Exe Rivulet flow through the property and fresh water also collects in a substantial quarry.
Vegetation ranges from glades of moss and white gum to dry sclerophyll forest (the predominant eucalyptus species is E. delegatensis) and a patch of relict rain forest. Native fauna abound in all areas of the property including wallaby, wombats, tasmanian devils and resident wedge tail eagles. Deer are also present. Lake Crescent is renowned for its populations of rainbow and brown trout.
Prospective owners can look forward to enjoying lifestyle and business opportunities including ecotourism, carbon sequestration, land conservation and forestry enterprises. A myriad of outdoor pursuits can be experienced on this property; hiking, fishing, camping, horse riding, photography, trail bike riding and all terrain vehicle exploration to name a few.
Throughout the property, the tranquil bush setting affords a welcome retreat from the modern world. A modest cabin offering warm and comfortable accommodation (sleeping up to 6 people) is easily accessed near the entrance to the property.
