Boyanup 4 bed one bath homestead on 90 acres of old early settled farmland.
The property
has an attractive outlook and positioned close to the town of Boyanup and 20 minutes drive to Bunbury. The property is currently pasture leased to the adjoining farmer who runs the historic Boyanup Billabong Bed and breakfast.
The homestead has not changed a lot in the last 50 years of ownership and would make a great rental property or renovators delight. There are 4 bedrooms and separate dining and lounge and built on undercover veranda solid and secure. A modest garage and shed adjoin and old yards and hay shed.
The original weatherboard homestead has been removed but the site, power, sewerage and remnant gardens still remain. A good bore and tank feeds fresh water for stock and gardens. The 3 bay general Purpose adjoins this site.
The farm fronts the South Western Highway, and the Southern railway line now not in use for some 15 or so years. It is not likely to be used in the near future as the cost of maintenance is apparently uneconomical to government and private owners. The rail reserve however, also gives you direct access to the start of the State Forest just 1.5 kms away… or even ride a horse direct to the local store on Sunday morning to get the paper and milk?
The farm is dissected by the proposed Boyanup Town Bypass with Main Roads now owning approximately 10 acres of road reserve right through the middle of the farm identifying two separate lots on the one current title. Prospective buyers may assume the prospect of two separate titles at some stage, although this will depend on the skill of the buyer to achieve subdivision from State Planning commission. The shire however, in its wisdom may choose to disagree.
Suitable for astute investors, equine or cattle famers or just lifestyle farmers. Please call for inspections strictly by appointment only.
