Equine Retreat, Horses, orchards and an income
A s part of the original Glen Forbes settlement, this 31 acre rural property represents an unparalleled opportunity to caretake an historical legacy whilst nurturing valued traditions for future generations.
There are two dwellings on the property. The primary residence is a superbly built home where a sprawling open plan living is anchored by a kitchen for the experienced cook with a butler's pantry. There are two bedrooms on the second level with two further bedrooms in the cottage ideally suited to independent family, visitors or B&B guests.
A landscaping plan has established a comprehensive selection of trees throughout the property whilst a delightful garden shades the lawns of the home. A horse corral and leasing of seven paddocks provides plenty of options beyond the principal residence.
A distinctly early 20th century aesthetic is well-suited to both the location and the home's warm and inviting ambience, suitable to further commercialisation as a wedding or events venue.
There are plenty of income streams already in place with the leasing of seven paddocks for stock, 100 bales of hay annually and a prodigious orchard, where organic produce includes apples, pomegranate, citrus, stone fruit, grapes and berries with two dams providing a secure source of water for the entire property.
Dedicated undercover hay storage and a work shed are as expected on a property of this calibre. Closer inspection is a must for those looking to establish a growing enterprise near the attractions of Westernport or a rural lifestyle close enough to Melbourne to enjoy on weekends and holidays.
