A powered shed with concrete flooring provides excellent storage for vehicles, machinery, or workshop use. Dual access via Old Dargo Road and the main township route ensures convenience for both lifestyle and agricultural pursuits.
The property comprises approximately 19 acres of fenced grazing paddocks serviced by dam water and small yards, with the balance featuring natural bushland ideal for wood collection, hunting, or simply immersing yourself in the surrounding native environment.
