KARDINIA on the Paterson River. Named for the spectacular Sunrises and Sunsets, Kardinia speaks of the history of the land. Located at the end of 800meter private road, ensuring privacy away from main roads. Arriving at Kardinia has the sense of driving into a big Australian landscape. With huge old Eucalypts and rural views for kilometers as you drive up to the home, the atmosphere is very reminiscent of arriving at an old station property. The Paterson Riverfront borders the property to the South, considered by many as having among the most secure water in NSW, with the Lostock irrigation Dam upstream. Water is pumped from the river by the riverside Grundfos Pump, up to a large holding tank high on the hill above the House, gravity fed back to the House, gardens and 6 stock troughs. 5 good farm dams provide water to stock. The Farmhouse was built in 2009. A substantial modern country home, positioned high on the central ridgeline, easily accessed by 2WD on internal road up the gentle slope. The views from the Home are panoramic and overwhelmingly stunning. From sunrise to sunset, the spectacular rural scenery is part of your daily life living at Kardinia. Exhilarating in all weathers and changing throughout the year. Mists in the valley, and a big sky and horizon for light to play on. Cattle and horses graze the pastures. With a history as a dairy farm and horse breeding and horse breaking, Kardinia is ideal for continued use for cattle and horses. Riding up to the top of the property, the stunning views overwhelm you, as the highest points on the hill look out over the Paterson Valley and Allyn River Valleys. Relaxing up on the hilltop, has been a favorite destination for the owner's family and friends, and there is a walk to the cool rainforest gully on the hillside. A stunning venue for a Long Lunch, BBQ, watching the Eagles glide by, and to linger to watch the sunset over the valleys, gaze at the stars and watch the moon rise.
