From 2002 to 2013 it was used as both a residence and a very well-known local business involving small cropping of organically grown culinary and medicinal herbs, and manufacturing of related products. One of those products was Amena's Organic Herbsalt, formerly sold in Woolworths. Features include:

- Extensive clean water laid on, including pumping rights from a 20 acre dam next door and extensive underground piping and ready-to-use outlets
- A number of structures used for growing, including a large one suitable as a hothouse
- A sealed, dust free packaging room
- Other structures include a small demountable office, 6 20,000L water tanks, a secondary machinery shed, seedling/nursery buildings, a chookyard, a personal vegetable growing area with organic improved soil, etc.
- Substantial leftover building materials and some machinery parts
- Underground power laid on to all structures with separate junction boxes for each, and 3 phase power to the workshop/machinery shed.
House 1 is a 3 bedroom home in an elevated position. Beautiful views over a 20 acre lake next door and Mt Kanigan are to be had with a small clearing of five year old regrowth. Main bedroom features a large office area and air conditioning. Nice kitchen, hardwood floors, 1.5 verandahs, extensive area below house for storage or garage (house in on very high poles with smooth concrete slab covering the entire area below).The back deck leads to a large lawn area prepped for an orchard, with underground piping and water available at the turn of a tap. 200 m2 under roof.
House 2: Smaller home with a large garage/shed. 3 bedrooms.
Shed 1: 30m x 9m concreted and weatherproofed packing/storage shed, can be driven through with doors at both ends. Own junction box with water and lights laid on.
Shed 2: 38m x 12m concreted less enclosed storage shed. Contains a sealed 4mx4m dust free room with a large commercial sink and stainless steel benches.
Shed 3: 33mx12m workshop/machinery shed with ample benches, a circular steel work table, 3 phase power via its own junction box, lighting, a bench saw, lots of tool shelves and cupboards, etc (concreted). Attached to this is a large area under roof (no sides) for storage of machinery or materials.
Shed 4: An enormous steel construction with a Laserlite (clear corrugated plastic) roof, irrigation and improved soil underneath that served as a hothouse/frost free area. Could be used a nursery where moisture control is desired, or the sides could be enclosed using the leftover Laserlite to create an enclosed growing space.
Office: A small demountable office with a verandah. Was used in the business for office work and meetings.
Drinking water: 6 x 25,000L water tanks collecting off the large the shed roofs, connected via pressure pump to the two houses and various other outlets where drinking water is required.
Water: 3 small dams, plus unlimited water rights via an easement to a 20 acre dam/lake on the neighbour's property, with crystal clear water. A large pressure pump keeps water available via a turkey's next through all of the property's extensive underground piping; simply turn the stopcock and water is available where you need it.
Improved cropping area: Extensively improved area for small crops, about two acres in area, with manure and organic fertilizer improved soil. Was previously under shadecloth, which has since been removed and stored. Beds are now under pasture but could easily be recovered.
Former orchard: with underground piping and watering system. This was left to die by property managers, but everything is in place to simply plant your own trees as desired. Also 80m worth of grape trellises (with piping) that previously grew fantastic muscat grapes
Sundry: Small chookyards and a personal vegetable growing area with raised beds and improved soil.
The property is a deceased estate and the family wants to sell, they are taking it to auction without it having been on the market before. Don't miss this fantastic opportunity to purchase a property with unlimited potential.
