Indigo Valley VIC 3688

The property has served the Valley well as a winery, sheep station, buttery and finally cattle grazing. Some of the older locals still reminisce of times like harvesting, wool clip and afternoon teas.

The historic sheds including the wool shed, cellar shed, hay shed and chaff shed, these are still intact and available for many uses, the latest homestead constructed in the 1960s has been totally refurbished and is a very comfortable home of up to 4 bedrooms (largest currently a superb studio/office) being 3 double and 1 single/study, open plan living of kitchen, dining and lounge room all with original polished floor boards. A separate laundry/shower/ toilet adds to the design flexibility and is accessed off the verandah. The separate bedroom section is fully carpeted with spacious built-ins and linen cupboards, with the modern full bathroom adjacent.

The home is fully insulated and with wood heater and split systems to manage all weathers, also surrounded by a minimum 2 metre wide verandah accessed by bedroom and living areas alike. A great place to relax, entertain and enjoy the many different views. The modern double carport is fully integrated into this design with under-cover connecting boardwalk between the front and rear verandahs.

The paddocks are fully electrified and with suitable troughs for stock, fencing in good order (special thanks to the Land Mate crew from Beechworth prison) with access front and rear, essential in fire emergency. The property is beautifully set back on the Indigo Creek enjoying Mount Saddleback and Creek views. Water is supplied by an all season spring and a 20000 gallon rainwater tank. Liquid gold in the North East. Location for the shooting of the miniseries, The Magistrate screened in 1989.

Diversification in 2007 has been the addition of a valuable 3000 tree firewood plantation which will also produce income in years to come as well as heat the homestead.

Glen Elgin is certainly a jewel in the Valley and is still a blank canvas with much potential as a Lifestyle Property, stock raising, food sustainability, horse raising and many other opportunities, your call.

Only 20 minutes from Albury/ Wodonga and within 200 metres of the local primary school. Barnawartha, Chiltern, Yackandandah and Rutherglen within easy reach. Peace, privacy and convenience await a family with a vision to the future in this well-established Valley community.
