THE PROPERTY
Backing onto 120 metres of the Canning River, the property delivers a true tree-change experience. Stroll along your own path by the river, and enjoy the native bushland. This section of the property has been zoned 'Bush Forever', so you can relax knowing the areas around the river will always be kept as a native retreat.
Gated paddocks are in place for livestock such as sheep, horses or poultry, and with riparian rights, you're entitled to pump water directly from the river to water lawns and gardens. You have all you need to create a hobby farm around the corner from town! The 12x6m powered workshop with three-phase power is perfect for storage, projects, or even a rental option. Established trees, gardens, and open lawn areas create a private and peaceful outdoor setting.
