Facing north, the house is cool in summer and warm in winter with further energy efficiency being achieved with solar hot water system. A Jarrahdale slow combustion fireplace, fuelled with plentiful wood from the property keeps the house very cosy on even the coldest days. Wide verandas and adjoining alfresco gazebo area give ample room for outdoor entertaining or just to sit back, relax and soak up the tranquil atmosphere and long views over the bush garden to the pasture and trees beyond.
Close to the main house is the original cottage (although historically lacking official council approval) with its own garage and outdoor area. Offering 2 small bedrooms, bathroom/laundry and a combined living/dining area and kitchen the cottage is simple but surprisingly cosy and liveable. It has potential as a teenage retreat, granny flat, guest accommodation or even as an income producing rental if approvals are secured.
Other features include 2 banks of farm sheds [including large workshop, garages and lock up areas], chook pens, large concrete water tank with pump supplying the main house [no water rates!], spring fed dam, also with pump, for the cottage and garden watering and a small mandarin orchard. Opportunities for future income come from the eucalypt plantation, the cottage, the mandarins and the silver dollar eucalypts which can provide foliage for florists.
Situated approx. 15 minutes from town and on a quiet back road that is a short cut to Margaret River, this scenic property is realistically priced to sell as the owners prepare to move interstate.
Although rented at present, the income from the main house is attractive and adds value for investors. Currently the sellers reside in the cottage. The farm is leased with the main house.
This property represents good value in a region where there are few if any realistically priced good quality properties with lifestyle dwellings and improvements. A great opportunity to secure a farm in a tightly held area.
