A self-contained cottage is located beside the main house, offering a living/dining space, kitchenette, bedroom, bathroom, and storage area. This versatile space is perfect for use as a guest retreat, home office, teenage escape, or a short-term rental in a peaceful rural setting.
LAND: 'Greenhills' offers a remarkable rural lifestyle, with mainly undulating land that rises into steeper sections. Approximately 15-20 acres of the property is arable, with the lower areas covered in clovers, vetch, and rye grass, while the rest of the land is home to native pasture. The current owners have previously run up to 15 cattle, utilizing the cattle yards and crush. Additionally, the property has timbered areas that offer great recreational opportunities, such as mountain biking and hiking.
WATER SUPPLY: Water for both the house and cottage is supplied via rainwater collection. Stock and domestic water comes from a well, with an electric pump sending water to a header tank. The water is then distributed via troughs in each paddock and gravity-fed to garden taps. In total, the property has six rainwater tanks (for the house, cottage, and sheds) along with a storage tank for well water. Additionally, there are two dams on the property.
INFRASTRUCTURE: 'Greenhills' includes a range of functional infrastructure, including cattle yards with a crush and loading ramp, fencing made of steel, plain, and barbed wire, and several sheds, including a double garage, machinery storage, utility sheds, and a woodshed.
SUMMARY: This premium lifestyle property offers the perfect opportunity to escape city life while still enjoying modern comforts. With its blend of historical charm and contemporary updates, 'Greenhills' is a rare find in the coveted Dungowan Valley.
