136 O'Tooles Road, Wild Dog Valley
Sweeping rural views, wide-open spaces, and acres of opportunity. In quiet Gippsland countryside, this 190-acre grazing property provides an incredible opportunity to expand or begin an agricultural pursuit.

Shedding includes an 18m x 8m shed that is enclosed and a 15 m x 6m machinery shed with 20 solar panels on the roof. There is a set of well-constructed stockyards that can be used for both sheep and cattle. The pastures are divided into 9 paddocks and are approximately 90% tractorable as the property lies at the bottom of the valley within the high rainfall and blue gum growing landscape of the Strzelecki hills, therefore the country isn't steep.

Water is sourced from dams and a semi-permanent creek-one dam by the yard area is spring fed and stays full.

Here lies a fantastic opportunity to build a home as there are many home sites with great views of the surrounding countryside, whilst being able to enjoy and farm the acres around. There are excellent home sites and for many only a building permit is required considerably speeding up the process. Several sites do not require a planning permit and a builders permit is good to build.

Only 20 minutes from Leongatha but quiet and secluded. Sheltered terrain and able to run 50 cows and calves. Currently leased out to a young cattle. The Leasee is keen to continue with this property so suit a lifestyle purchase to build your ideal house and leave the managing of the farm operations to the lease. Current return from lease is $30,000 pa.

The plantation area on the farm has been lodged with the council and provides an opportunity to harvest for saw-log production and firewood production when required. The trees were planted in 2007 and can be harvested anytime from now. The firewood plantations are designed to be continuous harvesting as required. A limited and sought after product with a high saleable value to the residents in South Gippsland. Please note: the plantation area shown in green outline has been sold to a timber harvester already.
The farm also comes with a lease of $7000 per year for the sawlog plantation which is shown in the green area on the plan of the property. The sawlog plantation does not come with the purchase of the property although the new owner has options to continue with a new sawlog plantation in an alternative location on the property and or return that area back to pasture for cattle grazing after the current crop is harvested.

The new plantation areas are already part of a new registered CER Project and over the 25 years of the project to start in 2027 an anticipated return of over $950,000 is expected from the business model.

The property does come with the firewood tree rights in the other areas planted for continuous harvesting rotation.

The new owner has the opportunity to take up or decline a carbon Credit program if they wish for a new Timber Plantation on the property registered for Carbon Credits with CER.

There is also an additional 10 acres of unused road lease at the property.
