The large barn offers endless opportunities and has been used as a workshop for the current owner who is a furniture/cabinet maker. It has three phase power and plenty of storage.

Lovingly planned gardens offer a large amount of produce from the fruit trees and vegetable gardens. A beautiful aspect of the garden are the mature deciduous trees dotted over the land, giving an ever changing vista during the different seasons. A beautiful 100 year old oak tree stands majestically in pride of place at the entrance of the main homestead. Many long table lunches and even a large family wedding have been held under its branches. Garden lighting creates a lovely atmosphere in the evening.

The owners have fenced the whole property and are currently running cattle, however the excellent soil would support many agricultural pursuits, for example olive groves or trufflery. There are several well-maintained sheds and water tanks on the property which provide self sufficient and plentiful water for the homes, an easement to a permanent soak is used for gardens and livestock.

This beautiful farm offers so much to those seeking a wonderful country lifestyle. A private viewing will impress, this one is rare and exceptional.
