A large scale holding in such close proximity to the regional centre of Albury/Wodonga is rare, with Burrumbuttock, Jindera and Walla Walla close by for all your educational and daily requirements.
Not often does a property of this scale present for sale in the half hour circle around Albury, with 401 hectares (991.5 acres) of undulating red loam farming country fronting both sides of Bethel Road - just 5 km on the Albury side of Burrumbuttock.
'Lillington' has been run as a genuine mixed farming enterprise producing canola, cereals and lupins along with cattle and fodder production.
The substantial 1950's red brick homestead in a well-established setting features four large bedrooms (two with built in wardrobes), open plan living and dining with a Norseman free standing wood heater in the kitchen and an Ultimate wood heater in the lounge. Ducted evaporative air conditioning will keep you cool in the forthcoming summer months and the hot water utilises roof top solar. The kitchen is equipped with an island bench, wall oven/grill, benchtop hotplates, Robin Hood range hood and a walk-in pantry; shady verandahs offer relaxed outdoor retreats after work.

Abundant water for stock is available from catchment dams with a solar pump on one large dam supplying a tank and troughs at the back of the property and a pressure pump on the house dam supplying troughs on the home front.
