Picturesque 34.1978 hectare / 84.5 acre rural land holding in Bedfordale.
Located on the corner of Albany Highway and Narbethong Road it has a very attractive topography rising up to the rear, with a natural water course running through the middle.
I have lived and sold real estate in this district for over 26 years and in my opinion this is arguably the best chunk of land I have walked over.
Neerigen Brook traverses the property flowing from east to west on the southern boundary and in addition there is a spring fed dam and creek rising in the middle of the block that runs north to south eventually connecting into the existing Neerigen Brook.
The property is approximately 50% cleared, fully fenced, with well-established pasture.
The treed area incorporates a mix of Jarrah, Marri, Sheoak, Norfolk Pine and Willow.
Located five minutes drive from major shopping, medical, sporting and school facilities and about 35 minutes from the Perth CBD.
The property is called "Runnymede" and was one of WA's early orchards back in the late 1800s due to its abundant natural spring water supply and rich fertile soils. In my time (26 years) the properties crystal clear watercourses and springs bubbling away all year round.
