This character filled Edwardian country home is certainly a feature of the neat little property. A very appealing package, located on the Sydney side of Bathurst, with fertile gently undulating acres, plenty of water and in a quiet part of the district yet still only 2 1/2 hrs from Sydney.

Homestead: Classic Edwardian 4 bedroom double brick house, maintaining much of its original character while presenting clean, modern and very comfortable. Bathrooms and kitchen have been completely modernized. Heating is from a large wood combustion heater with an open fire in the main room. The house is set in a fenced garden area with a north facing back patio to capture the sun.

Improvements: Timber and iron open front garage (4car), lock up workshop – approx 12′ x 15′, open front machinery shed with power and concrete floor – approx 17′ x 40′, several other sheds including a hay shed, steel cattle yards to hold approx 30 head, original ‘hot house’.

Country: 23.5 hectares (approx 58 acres) of cleared open pastures, gently undulating and comprising basalt soils. It is divided into 5 paddocks with mostly new (90%) internal and boundary fencing. Approx 2-3 acres of original timber, with the rest of the property being basically all arable. The land has in fact been used for organic vegetable growing in the past – the altitude (1100m), rainfall (average annual rainfall 950ml or 38″), fertile soil and climate obviously suit certain varieties.

Water: Water is a feature with 5 dams, some spring fed, and one of these still has the original old pump from the vegetable growing days.

Location: “Springvale” is located on the Dark Corner Road, approx 13km off the Great Western Highway, midway between Bathurst and Lithgow, being approx 35km from each centre.

“Springvale” is a unique property that has been tastefully modernised by the current owners, however retains many original features. The vendors have given clear instructions to sell the property!
