One of those properties you fall for right away… from the time you drive up the windy gravel driveway, the Classic Federation homestead is revealed overlooking tree lined dam and further on to the Preston Valley.
Splendid views are quite something on this Picturesque 100 acre farm and get better as you walk up behind the homestead and sheds and past the white clay dam to the top paddocks.
The Classic 1900′s Federation homestead was once the Bicton Catholic Hospital Nurses quarters.
Characteristic 12 foot high ceilings feature elaborate cornice and center piece design, with Corbeled Archways and 100 year old windowpanes. Polished Jarrah 6 inch floor boards and timber dado and leadlight windows all add to this immaculate designed interior.
Modernized with great skill, there is new colour-bond roofing with solar Hot water, new spar bath to name but a few features. Full length passageway lead past the formal dining room, plus living room with huge vintage windows and doorways lead that out to the near all round verandahs.
A separate garage, outside Alfresco and brick paved pathways wander through the ponds, trees and gardens and fruit orchards that round of the immaculate homestead.
The 12m x 9 m General Purpose shed was once home, and has the bathroom and old kitchen now being used as storage, but redeemable if required.
There are 9 well pastured and supered paddocks and a good set of cattle yards all set to run about 35 steers. Soils range from light loams to pockets of good quality gravel, with Wandoo Jarrah and Red gum timber.
The winter creek running across the bottom of the farm is the start of the Preston River. A private and secluded classic investment for those seeking something that all the hard work is complete.
Inspection will not disappoint, but by appointment only.
