House description
“Rural Retreat of Historic Value”
This 10.12 ha (25.3 acres approx) property was originally part of a selection dating back to John Glover's time - scene of the 1830's colonial farmers and bush-rangers, and situated under the watchful eye of Ben Lomond. There is a set of derelict twin chimneys near the garage, which date back to circa 1840. If you are a history buff, this is a priceless remnant of times gone by. The property on offer comprises of a 70m2 bungalow, separate 14 x 4m all purpose colonial style shed, various small sheds plus a lean-to carport off the side of the bungalow. Accessed via an all-weather driveway lined with a variety of deciduous English poplars, claret ash, stone pine from Trieste, sycamores and oaks plus olive and fruit trees near the buildings, the property will develop beauty and productivity in the years to come. It is truly self sufficient lifestyle with wind and solar power, water from the dam, two holding tanks plus septic system. There is a nearby power pole at the road, so you can be connected to the mains system if you wish. The bungalow and garage have a basic and simple fit-out which has further development potential. The buildings are also configured so that a larger home could be placed in the vicinity of the chimneys to form a colonial 'compound' as in days gone by. There are three well fenced and gated paddocks dividing the flat land along the road frontage, while 10 acres of bush on the hill at the rear contains some old growth stringy barks and blackwood. If you have ever thought of chilling out in your own rural paradise, this is the property for you.
