Good quality larger properties of this nature close to town (but secluded in a private valley) are hard to find these days, this home has the old original Woodville dance hall located on the property and is a wonderful piece of history in the area.
Situated approximately 20 minutes from Maitland in the pretty township of Butterwick, within 2 hours north of Sydney on good all weather roads.
The property consists of pasture improved country with Strawberry/Red clover, kikuyu and native grasses. The property has been limed in the last year for good feed in the coming year. Level to undulating, a few low hills, cleared with good shade trees, good gullies, and great size dams with the larger ones being spring fed and have never been known to dry up.
Quality fencing is another feature on the property with electric fences to some of the paddocks as well as the perimeter. The property is fenced into 4×60 acre paddocks with direct access to the cattle yard. There are 2 smaller paddocks which are 7 acres in size and have large water troughs that have water fed to them from the main dams. The cattle yards are built extremely solid and are complete with cattle crush and digital scales for cattle weighing as well as taps conveniently located around the yards for watering.
Good size farm machinery shed as well with power and concrete floor, the roof space is enormous to fit the largest of machinery. There is a large powered and watered chicken house with its own brooders to keep all the little chicks warm as well as power the chicken house has its own 5000 litre water tank.
The older style rambling country homestead has had some improvements over the years and is a solid home waiting for the right owner. It features three double sized bedrooms with the fourth being either an office or smaller fourth bedroom. Beautiful timber flooring flows through to the main living space that leads to open plan living based around the kitchen dining area. There is a very large walk in pantry to store all that is needed for farm living. In the main living area the owners have put in a top of the range combustion fire for the colder winter months and for summer there are two split system air-conditioners located in the living areas. The house has great wide verandahs that also help to keep it cool in summer.
There is a large semi above ground pool to keep you cool during the summer months, which is located off the enclosed side verandah. Adjacent to the home is a huge double garage with carport space to the front and includes a powered office space for the running of the farm. Within the house yard there has been a full watering system installed to irrigate all of the gardens located around the house.
This property is for the serious farmer and offers more than I can mention, definitely worth a look.
Agent’s comments: This is a great rural opportunity to buy in a convenient but peaceful environment, a larger scale property of good country to run cattle horses or sheep. We highly recommend your inspection.
