An old 1950s Outward Bound property set in the Hawkesbury region has been listed for sale.

It last sold 17 years ago when bought by its next-door neighbour 17 years ago, Ian Gowrie-Smith.

The 3.2-hectare block at Fishermans Point on Berowra Creek has about a dozen buildings in original condition, including a 26-bedroom boarding house capable of sleeping 120 people, and a commercial kitchen and recreational facilities.

It has a price guide of between $4.4 million and $4.8 million through LJ Hooker Terrigal agent Tim Andrews, who expects it to appeal to buyers seeking a resort or health retreat.

The property was run as a Knox Grammar school camp before it was bought by its current owner.

Outward Bound Australia started its camping and adventure activities there in 1956 until 1974.
