Set on the banks of the Derwent River, this prime agricultural parcel of land is ideal for a number of potential uses and has so much to offer. The approximately 112 acres of gently undulating pasture is set mostly on the western side of the Lyell Highway and benefits from a stunning 1.4km of river frontage and a beautiful view of surroundings hills and snow-capped mountains. The farmland is currently used for light sheep grazing and lucerne production but would have great potential for cattle farming, other more intensive cropping or a terrific hobby farm and is located just 5 minutes to the historical township of New Norfolk.
The property has the benefit of an existing period farmhouse that is currently not habitable but could allow the purchaser to add to or improve the dwelling in this significant agriculture zoning (STCA). There are also a number of outbuildings including a toilet block and a multiple large shelter sheds. Some infrastructure exists for water use from the river and there are two existing dams that are not currently in use.
