This large family home sits at the top of the world, just 5 minutes east of Orbost, providing both an amazing private sanctuary and the convenience of being close to town. There is a bit of a climb from the highway turnoff, up a pretty valley, to get to the house, which sits alone at the top of the hill and boasts stunning views from Mt. Raymond to the east, across the Marlo flats, and taking in the Snowy River to the West and the Southern Ocean as a backdrop! There's a million dollars' worth in the view!
The farm is set on over 45 acres, providing areas of both undulating and fairly flat grazing land. This property has been primarily set up for breeding horses and can also run approximately 30 head of cattle fairly comfortably without needing to feed out. Currently, there are 8 distinct paddocks, each with mains water-fed troughs, a dam, and 2 large sheds. One shed is dedicated as stables, while the other houses stables, a tack room, and a workshop. There is a round yard for horse training, complete with a sprinkler system and stadium lighting, cattle yards with an undercover crush and loading ramp, and electric fencing around the entire property. The list goes on and on...
