The picturesque gardens won ‘best garden’ in the Bendigo garden competition in 1990 and 1992. The property also includes 2 fully serviced building sites suitable for further development (s.t.c.a) of this already inspiring property.
REMARKS: A “labour” of love…The diversity of this unrivalled lifestyle proposition provides the ability to continue and further enhance the established commercial benefits or perhaps a more passive and private owner occupation retreat for your family and friends to enjoy all to yourselves…..
