IMPROVEMENTS
Ever wanted a decent shed? How about an 80ft x 20ft structure that has concrete floor, power, multiple sliding door access points, roller door and even an area sectioned off to create an office. Plenty of natural light enters the building through panels of clear sheeted roofing and windows. Furthermore, attached is 60ft x 20ft enclosed shelter that has power and, with a 30ft x 16ft carport connected to both structures, you have a very substantial shedding complex perfect for tradespeople, storage, workshop, implement/hay shed and more. Nearby a three sided trailer/small implement shed has dimensions of 20ft x 20ft. This area is easily accessed by the second driveway that passes yet another shelter, this being a stone walled building with a steel roof. Alongside the home is a 33ft x 25ft freestanding garage with sliding door entry, concrete floor and power. Other sundries include the chook house, wood shed and animal yards with ramp. Rainwater is stored in a series of tanks including a 15,000 gallon concrete tank, a 5,000 gallon poly and other tanks providing additional water storage.

A tiled sunroom links the living section of the home to a timber deck undercover entertaining area with a stone barbecue recess. A small rear verandah connects to a large undercover section and the very handy semi outdoor toilet and large washroom/laundry. Partially built inground is a concrete structure for your choice of use.
LAND
15 acres. Beautiful acreage in a pretty and tranquil location. Cromer is an area adjacent to Birdwood and is comprised of small hobby farms and recreation lifestyle properties. This holding is particularly special, as the majority of the land is suitable for grazing, with horses being the most recent of occupants, sharing the land with the kangaroos that come across from the nearby reserves and forests. Two dams on the property provide ground water with an unequipped well located near the home. The land has a gentle contour, and almost the entire property is visible from the home. Fenced into three major sections, the allotment is capable of accommodating the hobbies and interests of most buyers.
