A grand property in a fabulous location. Ideally positioned in the beautiful Pipers River wine region, this magnificent farm, with plenty of water, is suitable for any venture or lifestyle.
215 acres of beautiful land spread over 4 titles. The rear boundary is Pipers River, so you have direct access to water from a river that never runs dry. Two other boundaries give you kilometres of road frontage on Lewis Road and Pipers River Road. With a creek running through the middle, 1 large dam and several smaller dams throughout the property, there is no chance of water shortage for this farm. There may also be the availability to purchase water rights from the Tamar Irrigation Scheme.
Successfully run as a deer and cattle farm for many years, as well as running Arabian horses, the property is fenced into several large paddocks with 3 having specific deer fencing and the others using electric and ring lock cattle fencing. There are troughs and water holes in each paddock. On the Lewis Rd boundary, there are 4 large cattle yards, a cattle crush and loading ramp all in excellent condition. There is also a professional meat processing room and refrigerator room.
Most of the property is cleared pasture with approximately 50 acres of bush with good horse tracks. You will have an ongoing supply of firewood as well as a good shelter belt for your animals. This presents the new owners with the opportunity to run a choice of stock that suits their needs or diversify and add cropping, poultry or grapes to the mix. A fantastic piece of countryside only 35 minutes from Launceston city.
Set back from the main road is the fabulous double-storey Tudor-style house with the entry off Lewis Road. Built of double brick in 1988, the house offers 4 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an extra-large rumpus room that could easily hold a billiard table and a large theatre screen. There are lovely rural views from every window and the lounge/dining room, with its big log fire, offers plenty of room to entertain while maintaining a cosy country atmosphere. The formal entry leads you to a circular foyer with a winding staircase. For security, there are automatic roller shutters on all the ground-floor windows.
There is a double garage, with a workshop area, attached to the house and a 6-bay garage separate from the house. There is also a 20m x 20m double-height tractor shed that will hold stacks of hay as well as your tractors, and 2 other sheds on the property are plenty big enough to house extra farm equipment and trucks. The buyer of this magnificent property may also have the opportunity to purchase extra machinery including a roller, 2 ploughs, a harrow, 2 x Ford tractors and 1 Komatsu 7.5 tonne excavator with 5000 hours on it.
Pipers River is 35 minutes from Launceston and has school bus pickup and drop off. Bridport beaches are just 30 minutes’ drive and George Town is 23 minutes’ drive.
