This 164 hectare, (405.4 acre), parcel of agricultural land has been in the same family ownership since 1860 and presents a rare opportunity for expansion, or for a discerning buyer wanting a well positioned, yet private rural lifestyle property within commuting distance of Ballarat and Geelong. In recent times, the property has been used solely for the production of fine merino wool, however beef cattle, fodder or cereal production could just as easily be added to the enterprise mix. There’s a single stand wool shed/ machinery shed with two sets of sheep yards, a grain silo, plus 29,000 litre tank water supply. The undulating country is well drained and mostly arable with native shelter belts, together with some lightly wooded sections of mature native timber, providing habitat and possibly suitable for carbon offset. Water is supplied by four large dams, plus the spring-fed Williamson Creek, an upper tributary of the Leigh River, which traverses the property. Zoned Farming Zone (FZ), with two road frontages, on five titles and subdivided into six paddocks with excellent fencing. Soil types are a mix of sandy loam over a clay base, while the country to the east of Williamson Creek is a heavier carrying capacity volcanic basalt loam with some light barrier country. The property offers the perfect mix of rural living with scale for secondary income. The land is beautifully elevated and provides any number of possible sites to build your dream home, (STCA) and take full advantage of the panoramic rural views to Mt. Buninyong. 35 minutes to Ballarat, 45 minutes to Geelong and 2 hours from Melbourne. Inspection strictly by appointment with the selling agent. Floor Plans
