Located 35 kilometres* south of Braidwood, "Bunhybee Grasslands" offers 49 hectares / 120 acres* of native grassland, seasonal wildflowers and peaceful rural scenery. For someone with an appreciation of the natural environment, this is an opportunity to own a property with real conservation value and play a part in its future.
Set beneath "Bunhybee Peak", the landscape combines open grassy slopes, rocky ridges and pockets of snow gums, with views across the valley towards the Tallaganda Range. Two dams and seasonal watercourses add variety to the country. The diversity found here becomes apparent when you take the time to explore. Through years of observation and visits by knowledgeable naturalists, the owners have compiled records of almost 300 native species, including 18 species of orchids. Spring brings a particularly rewarding display, with native wildflowers appearing throughout the grasslands and changing as the season progresses. This is one of only a small number of protected areas of its kind. In total, Southern Tablelands Natural Temperate Grassland has shrunk to 1.5% of the area that existed when Europeans arrived here in 1822.
Wildlife observations include echidnas, wombats and eastern grey kangaroos, along with bird sightings ranging from Rosellas and Grey Fantails to Gang-Gang Cockatoos and Wedge-Tailed Eagles. For those who enjoy birdwatching, photography or simply spending time outdoors, there is plenty to discover at a slower pace. Cared for by the current owners since 2008, Bunhybee comes with an extensive record of its plants, seasonal changes and conservation work. Their detailed observations and weed-management records provide a valuable starting point for a new owner keen to continue that care. The majority of the property is protected by a permanent conservation agreement, with responsibilities that pass to future owners. This protection is central to Bunhybee's character and offers a meaningful opportunity for someone who wants to help conserve native grasslands and the life they support. The owners' information also identifies an area set aside for a potential dwelling. This offers scope to investigate a home designed to complement the setting (STCA).
Whether your interest lies in native plants, wildlife or making a practical contribution to conservation, Bunhybee offers a rewarding connection to the land.
Access is directly from Jerrabattgulla Road, and power runs through the property. Mobile reception is minimal.
