Just 3km west of Amphitheatre, this unique 209 hectare property borders the Pyrenees State Forest, offering a rare sense of seclusion and natural connection.

Formerly used for sheep and cattle grazing, the property has been carefully transformed through extensive restoration and is now managed for conservation, supporting a mix of open pasture and healthy native regeneration. The restored grassy woodlands and remnant vegetation provide crucial habitat for vulnerable species such as the Painted Honeyeater, Powerful Owl, Brush-tail Phascogale and the Golden Sun Moth.

The terrain of the land rises from 359m to 642m, featuring sweeping views across steep hills and deep forest-lined gullies. The property sits at the headwaters of Forest Creek, a prominent tributary of the Amphitheatre Creek which flows into the Avoca River 5km to the west.

Accessible via Rivetts Road off the Pyrenees Highway, the property’s remote and peaceful setting ensures privacy and immersion in nature. A 9 hectare Domestic Area is allocated for future infrastructure or residential development, subject to approvals, offering space to dwell on the land and contribute to its restoration.

Amphitheatre is an ideal retreat for those seeking a nature-rich escape or an environmental investment with a lasting impact.

Six threatened species under State and/or Federal legislation have been observed at the site, including:

- Painted Honeyeater (Grantiella picta) (EPBC vulnerable)
- Powerful owl (Ninox strenua)
- Brush-tail phascogale (Phascogale tapoatafa)
- Diamond Firetail (Stagonopleura guttata)
- Ben Major Grevillea (Grevillea floripendula) (EPBC vulnerable) and
