Blessed by ancient tree ferns and covenanted to protect king ferns and green corridors for wildlife. This is a bird lover’s paradise and animal sanctuary.

Over 50 bird species (including migratory) have been recorded along with an abundance of native animals, including king parrots, crimson rosellas, magpie, currawong and superb wrens; wombat, echidna, wallaby and kangaroo. There is flowing water through a granite gully and acres of temperate rainforest to explore.

The house was constructed from clay on-site in 1984 and provides famous thermal qualities enhanced by 10-star double-glazed windows in every room to frame the forest outlook. E-credentials include solar power, solar hot water, under-floor heating, battery and charger ready. It’s serviced by mains and tank water and fenced domestic areas.

10x10m garage, drive-in drive-out driveways and extensive gardens of exotic and native plants, trees and shrubs.

Included in the domestic area are mature fruit trees, olives, vines and a huge vegetable patch for full food sustainability.

Adjoining the Cardinia reservoir reserve, privacy is assured.

This property truly lives up to its name – ‘Dadirri’ – meaning quiet contemplation, stillness and sanctuary in the language of the Traditional Owners.
