“Woodreef”, trading as Coal Vally Orchard, is offered for the first time due to the well-deserved retirement of its current owners. They developed it in 1998 from rundown pastures into the financially rewarding orchard enterprise that it is today.

The property is 444 acres (179 hectares) in total. The orchard – cherries, apples and apricots consists of around 45 hectares; the balance is arable and volcanic grazing country.

The Coal River Valley is renowned as one of the most successful fruit-growing areas in the state because of the dry, low rainfall, environment, particularly for Cherries. It is also well known for lettuce production, as it is one of the only places in Australia where leafy vegetables are not stressed by heat, too much rain or frost. Quality irrigation assets compliment the natural environment and allow you to fully control when water is applied to manage tree growth and vigour.

In the fourteen years since the owners established the orchard, it has not been badly frost affected. The area above Campania is also remarkably fog free, which not only makes the farm much more pleasant in winter, it also means less worry about bacterial canker; and allows for an earlier start to winter pruning.

Whilst the orchard is mature in production, there is still great potential for orchard expansion, the establishment of a vineyard or a cropping regime. The overall business potential has not been fully utilized yet either (we would be happy to discuss these many avenues with you when you enquire).

The heritage listed, sandstone homestead was once known as the Bird-in-Hand Inn. It was fully restored in 2003. It is a two-storey residence dating back to circa 1834-36 and is now surrounded by beautiful established gardens. Woodreef loves a crowd especially when that crowd is family, it’s one of those homes where every moment spent here is a moment to treasure. All the hard works been done there is nothing left to do but move in and start growing money.

A truly extraordinary opportunity to purchase an already profitable business that offers you diversity and substantial future growth potential. Instant return on investment. Development potential. Heritage home to suit a modern lifestyle. Where else would you get all this in one package?
