The property has further potential to provide abundant produce for market and farm gate sales. Please note that this property is being marketed and sold with normal domestic chattels, but not as a business as a going concern nor with current figures.

The property is certainly capable of generating a very healthy income as it has under the past prior to the vendors scaling back operation in 2011 due to other business commitments. The property is capable of either stand alone or as supplementary returns purely dependent on how you as a new owner would wish to operate the property, having both accommodation and catering facilities as options. In addition it is capable of running a small herd of between 12-15 beef store cattle, run organically, the property also has a large, very productive vegetable and herb garden, plus fruit trees which makes the property essentially self-sufficient. It represents a wonderfu lifestyle opportunity.

The relaxing, photogenic gardens and cafe offer an ideal choice for weddings and functions. Small herd of livestock, equestrian use, potential organic farming, the choice is yours. If your wish is to secure a prime lifestyle property with the potential to secure a healthy supplementary income within the beautiful North West then Glencoe provides a truly rare opportunity. The vendors continually schedule and complete upgrades and maintenance with the homestead just having been repainted externally, new sections of guttering installed, and new flu installed for the wood heater meaning a new owner will have little other than ongoing routine maintenance to attend to.

Three dams and a pristine supply of water from the bore, along with rainwater collection provide more than enough water for both home and farm requirements. Electric fencing, underground power from the road, prime classification 2 and 3 soils, beautifully constructed 2 bay horse stables alongside the original dairy with undercover parking for horse transport, tack room or sleepout with shower and kitchenette enhance the desirability, versatility and potential of this fine property.
