A Permaculture forested 4047 m2 (1 acre) rural residential property is within 5 minutes stroll to the township of Lowmead. The property is in a row of former allotments that were used for the homes of the gangers and railway workers over a century ago.

There is a delightful hexagonal timber dwelling, energetically enhancing, overlooking a small dam, with provision for extension.

The perimeter fencing is complete being made of steel rio sheets for trellising. To ensure privacy, the fences have been covered with Hessian.

Nine very mature mango trees, now in forestry formation, are a testimony historic gardens around a railway workers cottage now long gone.

Grown amongst the canopy along the flowers and coconut lined pathways are mandarins, plumbs, bottle trees, figs, advocardos, Indian Almonds, bananas, passion fruit, pineapples, apricot, coco nut, strawberry, paw paw and guavas.
