Pursue your lifestyle dreams and equine or hobby farming interests on this 12 acre property ideally located in the friendly community of Lockwood South. Just a fifteen minute drive to Kangaroo Flat and twenty minutes to central Bendigo. Only ten minutes to access the Calder Freeway for those commuting between Melbourne.
The property is divided into 6 paddocks and currently operates as a farm for small harness ponies. It is sure to pique the interest of those seeking a manageable hobby farm with space and fantastic infrastructure to keep horses, alpacas, sheep or cattle.
The gravel driveway and entry to the stable area are easy to navigate in trucks and large vehicles, making it simple to tow and store horse floats and trailers. The stable comprises two large lined boxes, electric lights and power points, a hot wash with boom hose and a feed/tack room with concrete floor and roller door. A plumbed washing machine and sink both with hot and cold water will be included in the sale.
A large post and rail fenced sand round yard is adjacent to a sand mnage complete with two mirrors and a set of dressage markers. Two shipping containers will also be included in the sale. One currently serves as a hayshed and the other a tack/rug room. Two day yards connect to the stables with post and rail and electric fencing.
A separate day yard offers a walk in / walk out Colorbond box for additional shelter and is also contained by post and rail and electric fencing. Plenty of trees provide shade and a further two fenced day yards offer overhead Colourbond shelters. A dam is positioned in the rear paddock which backs onto a seasonal creek and has previously cut as many as 100 bales of good grass hay. Two water tanks are dedicated to the stables and taps and hoses to each paddock and a further two water tanks service the home.
The very comfortable home offers a main bedroom with walk in robe and ensuite, a further three bedrooms with built in robes and the study could be utilised as a fifth bedroom if required. A large family room is separated from the main open plan kitchen, dining and living which allows for modern living and zoned activities. An entertaining deck steps down to a securely fenced house yard which is ideal for supervising the children as they play and for keeping dogs.
The current owners have replaced all of the original gates with safe mesh paddock gates and have fenced the entire boundary with chicken wire for peace of mind. There are laneways between most of the paddocks for extra convenience.
A sensational property for families and those seeking a country lifestyle. The current owners attribute their many successes at numerous Agricultural Shows to the brilliant infrastructure on offer here at 108.
