4/652 Maleny-Montville Road, Balmoral Ridge, Qld 4552

Here is your chance to live on a 3392m2 parcel in a beautiful Nature Refuge (one of only six private parcels) set amongst 72 acres of common subtropical vine forest, with easy, private access to the Obi Obi Creek, a suspension bridge, a large private swimming hole and seven kilometres of walking tracks.

Lot 4 sits within the 28-hectare private parcel "Dilkusha" located in the Lake Baroon catchment on the Obi Obi Creek. The property includes extensive areas of native rainforest, which is home to hundreds of species of plants and birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians and butterflies. These include the Richmond Birdwing Butterfly (and vine), the Pink Underwing Moth and its foodplant as well as six rare and endangered tree species. Several new species of the delicate Marasmius fungi have been discovered and described on Dilkusha in recent years.

A 1.2 km stretch of the Obi Obi Creek flows through the centre of the property. The riparian lands abutting this are one of the last remaining examples of a rainforest riparian ecosystem in the Upper Obi Obi catchment. Most of the riparian lands located at Dilkusha have never been cleared while other sections were selectively cleared in the past but have benefitted from over 40 years of regeneration and regrowth and active restoration. The Conservation Agreement means regular grants are available for vegetation maintenance assistance.
