It has been many years since a farming property on the Tasman Highway has come to the market publicly in the Swansea area.
This high profile property, part of "The Plains", is just under 200 hectares and has frontages onto Springs Road, Tasman Highway, and Lake Leake Road. It is about 6km north of Swansea, and 5km from 9 Mile Beach and Great Oyster Bay. The rugged granite peaks of The Hazards and Freycinet Peninsula are clearly visible from many points on the property.
It is an agricultural block with a multitude of uses beyond the sheep grazing operation it is currently operating as.
Cropping and horticulture are well suited, with walnuts and grapes being grown on neighbouring properties. A 10 megalitre water right from the Swan Valley Scheme will be included in the sale.
A huge frontage to the states most popular tourist route and access off the highway gives the property so much more scope than just agriculture.
At least 110 hectares of this property has been cultivated in the past and there is much more that could be accessed.
The wide open plains, 2km at their longest point, provide scale that is so often hard to find and in contrast there are areas of native remnant bush at strategic points on the property providing shelter for stock and space for native birdlife.
It is a spectacular property from so many aspects: agriculture, natural beauty, tourism potential, and all in such a striking and sought after region of Tasmania.
