This rural oasis comprises 21.64 hectares (approximately 53 acres) of gum studded land split into 6 good sized paddocks allowing plenty of natural feed for cattle. There is an abundance of water to the property with three dams, a winter creek, rain water and access to mains water that can be used in the house by the simple turn of a valve.
Originally comprising a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1 living (farm house constructed in approximately 1934 it has been practically extended over the years). The home now includes a second living area with slow combustion heating, study/3rd bedroom, meals area overlooking the well established rose garden and a galley style kitchen. The house with its 12ft ceilings still, features its original fireplaces along with original timber flooring. Walk out the back door to the adjoining carport which could be utilised as an outdoor entertaining area where you will find the outside laundry which is complimented by a second toilet and washroom. With new colour bond roofing to the front verandah and recently installed leaf guard there is no need to worry about the weather or the hassle of cleaning gutters.
The external improvements are substantial with a single garage, small garden shed, chook shed, 2 machinery sheds, hay shed and dairy which has 3-phase power. The dairy is not currently used to milk cows but can be easily converted back to its former glory. The gardens are well established with a rose garden, some 70+ year old trees and a specially dedicated area for Australian natives of some 1100sqm which is bordered on the left hand side by a 2m tall privacy hedge.
Overall this is a wonderful rural oasis which is close to facilities and the South Eastern Freeway.
