Located in Victoria's illustrious Yarra Valley, this sprawling 18.3 acre property presents a remarkable lifestyle and business opportunity. Available for the first time in three decades, it comprises a family homestead, a flourishing U-Pick berry farm and numerous significant buildings.
Well-known in the region, the impeccably managed property offers 15 acres of berry-dominant irrigated crops, including polyhouse crops. As a family-owned enterprise with a robust agribusiness, it holds significant potential for further development.
The key features of this unique property include a recently renovated homestead with a well-equipped kitchen, 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms plus generous living, dining and verandah space. The homestead showcases impressive views of farmland and the surrounding ranges, and is complemented by a covered entertaining area and a double carport.
Separate from the homestead, there is an updated granny flat, ideal for accommodating site workers, including backpackers. It features 2 bedrooms, a living/dining area, kitchen, laundry and a disabled bathroom.
The property also holds a water license for 10 megalitres on stream, a 3-meg privately owned off-stream dam and a 95-metre water bore with an additional leased permit for 6 megalitres. 2 freshwater tanks and 2 dams contribute to the property's water resources.
The large shed on the property serves multiple purposes, functioning as a "Farm Gate" shop with packing facilities, a canteen, office, cool room and restrooms. The machinery shed includes a workshop plus further office and workers' accommodation.
The sale includes an extensive array of machinery required to run and maintain the farm business, as well as a shed housing computerised fertiliser mixing.
The business model encompasses established U-Pick Farm Gate retail sales and commercial berry crops, featuring Chinese Bayberry as the hero crop, along with strawberry, red currant, blueberry, raspberry and a feijoas orchard.
