Welcome home to 890 Watson's Creek Road a hidden gem nestled within the Bendemeer mountains in what I call God's Country just 5 minutes to the historic village of Bendemeer. Here you will find 46 acres of woodland countryside, the property is a lifestyle block. These undersized river blocks with a dwelling entitlement (under 400 hectares) are very hard to come by and don't come to market often.

The house is positioned on a rise overlooking the Moonbi ranges on one side and the MacDonald River is located on the other side and until you come and see it yourself, you cannot fully appreciate the stunning backdrop and outlook.

Make this beautiful property your permanent home or use the property as a getaway from the city life. The property harvests its own water in three large concrete tanks and river water can be pumped up to a header tank for domestic or stock use. The property is home to a wide range of native wildlife including Kookaburras, Magpies, Curlews, Wedge Tailed Eagles, Lorikeets, Rock Wallabies, Wallaroos, Eastern Grey Kangaroos, Echidna, Possums, Gliders and Antechinus

The MacDonald River is a clear watered river, filtered by the granite sands in its catchment. The river flows west into the Namoi River so there are no eels and an abundance of other riparian life such as platypus, water monitors, Bell's turtle, water birds, trout and other native fish.
