Nestled within the grounds of Dunrobin the sandstone stables, along with a barn and cottage are all well-preserved examples of early colonial architecture, remarkably crafted by convict labour. The stables have been repaired and has multiple avenues for use such as a private function room, horse stables, wine sales, tastings and more!
Stretching beyond the house and stables, the vineyard spans six hectares of the property producing pinot noir, chardonnay, shiraz and sparkling wines. Adding to the property's agricultural value are two valuable water rights: one allowing for the use of 50 megalitres annually and a second, flexible 5 megalitre right that can be drawn at any point throughout the year, offering consistent irrigation and operational versatility for vineyard and land management. The water rights allow frost protection and irrigation pumps to draw from the Derwent River delivering a fine spray across the vineyard to maintain optimal growing conditions.
The opportunity to negotiate water rights will be available.
