A beautiful acreage zoned E4 (house permissible with council approval) with around 8 acres of level cleared land surrounded by picturesque escarpment, bounded by the Yengo National Park. With a four-bay shed and a four-wheel drive track surrounding the property, there is plenty of room to play and enjoy this remarkable location. This property is remote and off the grid, no city services at all, but land line phone maybe available.
The property has a dam with bass and 1 kilometre of Mogo Creek frontage. Native birds, wombats and wallaroos are frequent visitors. The Mogo Creek rises below Mount Finch on the southern slopes of the Hunter Range, about 5 kilometres north-west of Mount McQuoid. The river flows generally south, then west, then south, joined by two minor tributaries, before reaching its confluence with the Macdonald River near St Albans Common, north of St Albans. The river descends 208 metres over its 31 -kilometre course.
St Albans Common is 1,000 hectares and was given to the valley residents by Queen Victoria 160 years ago for additional grazing of horses and cattle. It is a piece of living history.
Cattle are still mustered on horseback and The Common continues to make farming a viable option for smaller land holders. The land is an important habitat for wildlife including wallabies and koalas. The unique wetlands are a haven for black swans and other water birds.
The St Albans Common has been successfully managed since 1824 by valley residents in accordance with the original deed of grant and at no cost to government. The Common is a major feature of the MacDonald Valley settled within a few years of the arrival of the First Fleet.
