Country Lifestyle with 'Citrus Caviar'

As you climb up from the Jiggi valley you come across this intriguing property with its immaculate orchard. Upon closer observation you discover that you've stumbled upon what is referred to as 'Citrus Caviar', or finger limes. The current owners realised that they were native to the area and began their quest to develop the orchard for additional income. The property is approx 19.85 hectares ( 49 acres ) in total, offering the original 3 bedroom home with polished floor boards, renovated bathroom and solid timber kitchen. The outlook from the kitchen and bathroom is postcard like, with lush green natural bush providing the backdrop. The verandah offers views over the property to the adjoining ridge as well as down through the valley. There is a perfect alfresco area out from the kitchen where you can dine or just sit and relax with a cuppa or a glass of wine and absorb the natural surrounds. The grounds around the house provide space and options to explore self-sufficiency with veggie gardens, free range chickens and additional fruit trees. The 12m X 9m colorbond shed is used for storage of farm equipment and processing of the Finger Limes. There is associated plant and equipment available if required for the continued operation of the orchard. Additional to the main home is a 1 bedroom studio ( old dairy bales ) which provides additional income or options for the extended family if required. As well as a council approval for a 3rd building site with easement should that be desirable. The orchard consists of approx 419 mature trees, 312 2yr old trees and there are currently 200 seedlings available for further planting. ' Rainforest Garnet ' is the variety of Finger Lime planted and further details on production can be made available on request. There is also a 3 mega litre irrigation licence with this property to support the orchard if required. The creek runs through the property with basalt base and small waterfall. 280 Davis Road, Jiggi presents an ideal opportunity for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of town on a quest for a simpler life with the potential for self sufficiency and supplementary income from the farm.
