Here's your chance to Own a Piece of the Universe

A Rare Opportunity in Australia’s First International Dark Sky Park

Dark Sky Hill is offered in two ways. You can purchase the property on its own, or acquire it as a fully operational turnkey Astro-tourism business.

The 104-acre property sits on a private plateau with sweeping views, heritage-listed caves and a working observatory. All the key infrastructure, systems and procedures are already in place. Everything needed to continue operating, pause for future activation, or expand a high-quality guest experience is ready to go. 

This ready-to-activate potential is baked into the value and sets it apart from comparable offerings in the area.

The Land and its Settings are a Geographical Monopoly

Dark Sky Hill occupies a special position on the edge of the Warrumbungle landscape. 

The property features a mix of open plateaus, sheltered bushland and dramatic rocky outcrops, with the Castlereagh River valley visible in the distance. 

The land supports a rich variety of native flora and provides a genuine sense of seclusion while remaining easily accessible. It is this combination of privacy, natural beauty and dark sky clarity that makes the location so powerful. Precise coordinates: -31.26943, 149.18717.

Heritage, Culture & Wildlife

Observatory & Guest Experiences

The property holds genuine heritage and cultural significance with heritage-listed caves and striking geological features. 

Wildlife is abundant and a daily delight. A resident population of brush-tailed rock wallabies, including the well-known “Wags The Tail”, regularly appears around the home and observatory, often joining evening skywatching sessions. Native bush tucker plants grow across the property, adding another layer of connection to Country that guests find memorable.

Observatory & Guest Experiences

Observatory & Guest Experiences

At the heart of the property is a working observatory at 675 metres elevation, equipped with premium telescopes including the Celestron Origin and 11-inch computer-driven tracking telescope with Pegasus Smart Eye. 

The property is fully off-grid with solar power, battery storage, diesel backup, a 30-metre solar bore, large water tanks with auto-fill, and established irrigation. Great care has been taken to design and build the property to be as maintenance-free as possible. 

This ready infrastructure is a major part of the inherent value, whether you choose to activate the existing guest operation or develop your own vision.

Current Operation

Dark Sky Hill already operates successfully as a low-profile Astro-tourism experience with strong reviews and repeat interest. 


The current owners have developed quality systems, guest experiences and forward bookings. 


If you are looking for a turnkey business with immediate income, this option is available. 


The business can be included or excluded depending on your goals.

Your Next Step

Dark Sky Hill is being offered for private sale.
