Key Features of Garlynd Ridge:
• A Stunning Natural Landscape:
Garlynd Ridge is bordered by the Wollondilly River, a vibrant freshwater stream that flows freely over rockeries and cascades downstream. With its crystal-clear waters, this river creates a perfect wildlife sanctuary, home to platypus, fish, kangaroos, wombats, and an abundance of birdlife.

• Limitless Potential:
The property is as versatile as it is beautiful. The 50% arable land is ideal for a variety of agricultural pursuits, including:
o Livestock: Cattle, sheep, alpacas or horses could thrive here, with plenty of space for grazing and shelter.
o Crops: A vineyard, olive grove, or green tea plantation could flourish in the fertile soil, while more niche crops like wasabi could be explored.
o Tourism: With its stunning vistas and serene atmosphere, the estate is perfect for developing a tourism venture, subject to council approval. Build cabins, create gardens, open a café, or set up a “paddock-to-plate” experience where visitors can pick their own fresh produce.
