Area: 52.42* hectares or 129.53* acres
Situation: located in a quiet part of Winton, 657 Old Winton Road is just 18km* west of Tamworth, yet it offers all of the amenities of city living in a quiet location. Bitumen roads are a key feature, while rubbish collection, school bus service and daily mail are all at your convenience. Dual access to both Old Winton Road and Dobsons Lane is also a handy option. The property enjoys a sensational rural aspect with views towards Duri Peak and the surrounding Melville Range. Westdale Village (groceries, bottleshop, butcher, school) is only about 7km away providing added convenience.
Home: a quality home, simple yet practical, it features four bedrooms, polished cypress pine timber floor boards, an immaculate renovated bathroom, open plan living room with a quiet front verandah, enclosed back verandah with adjacent entertainment area. Heating and cooling is supplied by way of evaporative cooling and gas, while a double carport adjacent to the home provides vehicle accommodation. A really neat, practical home presented extremely well.
Country: soft, gently undulating red basalt and clay soils on the property provide new owners the opportunity to both crop and graze, with the soils suitable for a range of options including fodder crop and permanent pastures. All are currently under native grasses with the land about 90% arable. The current owners have run a horse and cattle enterprise, with selling centres only 11km away.
Infrastructure: the main shed is a key feature, being approx. 420m2, with one lock up bay. It is built in its own compound, and provides plenty of storage for cars and machinery, yet would also convert into a great set of stables and tack area for horse people. The centre booth of the shed previously operated as a spray booth. Steel cattle yards with loading ramp and good fencing throughout make livestock handling safe and efficient. The property has a range of fit for purpose infrastructure without being top heavy with overdone improvements.
Water: safe and practical, the house and shed both harvest rainwater into tanks, while stock water is supplied by a stock and domestic bore pumping into a header tank via petrol pump, and five dams scattered throughout the property.
Remarks: a neat and tidy property presented in good condition. Well improved without being over the top, there is plenty of scope to add further capital value and develop to your liking. Having been a terrific place for the last 21 years, it is time to downsize. Inspections by appointment, to view this quality small acreage call Riley Gibson on 0417 441 688.
