House Hill

The house hill has been constructed to the approved dune height of 10.8m AHD, and this elevation provides extensive 360 degree ocean and rural views. This would be the most spectacular house site on the east coast of Australia! Ocean views extend north to East Ballina, south to Evans Head and as far as the eye can see to the horizon to the east. To the west the view extends to the ranges. A gravel road has been constructed to reach this level house platform.

Wildlife and Wildlife Ponds

Two of the three approved wildlife ponds have been constructed. Fill was extracted from the northern wildlife pond, and was used to construct the Council owned Moylans Lane access road from the cane pad to the property boundary.  The fill extracted from the wildlife pond to the west of the house hill was used to backfill the water tanks, as it had some clay content which was not suitable for the house hill. There are four other natural waterholes on the property which bring in the wildlife.

The king parrots arrive for two months in mid-winter and can be heard chattering in the banksia trees, and many wallabies can be seen throughout the property. The vegetation supports an extensive variety of wildlife from giant 1.5m long goannas and land mullet, to white bellied sea eagles and whistling kites.

Sheds

The two large sheds have been constructed and provide the catchment for the water storage tanks. Only the largest shed has electricity connected, which includes power points throughout the shed and large overhead lights. A workers restroom/bathroom with shower, toilet, laundry tub and washing machine is constructed on the SE corner of the big shed.

Boundary Fences

The property is fully fenced with wooden posts and barbed wire fences, and mesh netting is also installed on the eastern boundary. There are many boundary gates, all of which are padlocked making the property secure.

Effluent Disposal

Two effluent disposal areas have been approved by Ballina Shire Council – one to service the cabin and bathroom in the big shed, and the other to service the future house on the hill.

Electricity, Water & Phone

Underground electricity and telephone have been constructed to & within the property. Electricity and water are connected to the cabin and shed and a pressure pump is installed in the big shed which pressurises the line to town water standard. Phone is also connected to the cabin.

The water, electricity and phone lines have junction boxes at the cabin, so these services can be connected to the future house on the hill.

Water Tanks

4 x 90,000 litre concrete water tanks (7.5m diameter x 2.7m vertical measurement) collect rainwater from the sheds and cabin roofs and have been backfilled and planted out with native vegetation so they are completely hidden. These tanks are now full with 360,000 litres of stored water.
