This truly exceptional rural lifestyle property is situated on 75 acres within 10 minutes of the Nowra township. It is an impressive country style homestead built by the President of the Shoalhaven Polo Club in the late 70s and served as his family home for over 30 years. During the golden years of the 80s the club's outstanding amenities attracted experienced players from all over Australia including a number of prominent businessmen such as Kerry Packer and Harry M Miller who became regular visitors to the polo fields and club house.
