This unique and significant property is located just 25km from Ballarat on the western side of the renowned Lake Burrumbeet, is a gem for those seeking a working farm whilst also being a true environmental custodian.
The neat 4BR 1955 original soldier settlement home has two bathrooms, open living and dining area, 6.5kw solar panels, 45,000lt water tanks and nearby a large add on garage/office/workshop shed. Further improvements include a serviceable 2 stand woolshed, 2 sets of sheepyards including one new steel set central to the property connected by laneways, 3 bay machinery shed, fuel shed (5,000lt diesel, 400lt ULP), raised grain shed, hayshed, woodshed and chook shed.
Approximately two thirds of the property has operated using regenerative farming principles with organic fertilisers and minimal chemicals used on the 15 main paddocks, running a prime lamb operation in conjunction with a cropping/pasture improvement program. A further wonderful asset is the 150ML water licence equipped with a diesel Lister Petter pump providing water security to the property and irrigation if required. A further two equipped bores service the property with troughs to most paddocks, also with two catchment dams.
There has been major shelter belt and restoration programs over the years with thousands of native trees planted, providing for a biodiversity and a critical wildlife reserve protected in perpetuity by a Trust for Nature covenant of approximately 103.5ha in total, the majority over the "Black Swamp". This precious wetland area is circled by majestic and ancient Red Gums and other native species, creating the ultimate environmental wonderland.
A rarely found property with unique characteristics.
