'Melmark' presents a rare opportunity to purchase an absolutely prime rural holding in the tightly held Congewai Valley with unveiling views and the perfect mix of arable pasture and mountain bush land. Situated on approximately 51.79ha (127 acres), the property has it all, from lush creek flats bordering Congewai Creek, the land rises through a layer of natural mountain bush land featuring striking rock features. It then opens up to a hidden private oasis of rolling hills and open pasture privately positioned back from the road.
Eight dams are scattered around the property and a large 80,000L concrete water tank feeds from a huge brick shed. The property also has the added benefit of a precious 18 mega-litre water license to pump from the creek.
The large shed has been fitted out with a kitchenette & bathroom with an approved enviro-cycle septic system. Built on a concrete slab and with heavy duty steel frame and two large roller doors (one automatic), it's a shed you can only dream of! Mains power is connected up to the shed and you have the choice of many potential house sites (STCA) which take advantage of the breath taking views. A landline phone is also connected.
Trails meander through the property ideal for bush walking & bike riding. The land extends right up to an impressive rock escarpment with many caves and lush rainforest terrain along the way. Parts of the property remind you of a lush campground with ancient trees and intriguing sandstone boulders highlighting the beautiful natural landscape.
The property is suitable for cattle grazing, having approximately 60 acres of arable land and stockproof fencing. A timber and steel cattle yard and loading ramp is also positioned down by the road for easy use.
Located under 2 hours' drive from Sydney with easy access to Newcastle, the Central Coast and nearby Cessnock township, Congewai is a hidden gem of the Hunter Valley.
