Raynham Park Estate Elands - Sunrise, Sunset, Birdsong, Perfect Privacy.
This unique 100acre property is offered after over 30 years with the current owners who fell in love with it, and the community/family-friendly lifestyle, in 1993.
The very spacious, meticulously renovated, retro-style 4 bedroom home sits on a stunning ridge that accesses distant views in all directions. At 600m elevation, you can see the ocean horizon and the peak of Forster's Cape Hawke. Being on the escarpment there is a comfortable frost-free microclimate that catches cooling breezes in summer.
Home site of the former 'Raynham Park' estate, the land was previously used for prime cattle-breeding, and dairying before that. The original estate was subdivided for life-style farm let living in the early 90s. Our Vendors have engaged in extensive rehabilitation of native rainforest with stands of mature trees grown from seedlings planted in 1995, now supporting abundant wildlife. Approximately 8 to 10 acres remains cleared and highly suited for agricultural pursuits, with rich organic soil and legal easement access to unlimited water from a spring-fed dam with storage capacity circa 130,000 litres in 3 tanks.
The property is on the grid and also has roof -top solar panels and a solar hot water system.. In addition it has a Council approved septic system.
The paddocks have been maintained but not grazed for a number of years. Some fencing remains but New owners will need to re-fence the unfenced sections according to their needs. The main shed stands on a substantial concrete slab still stands and is functional but will need renewal or renovation in due course.
Located along the Tourist Drive 8 route, the gravel road is generally well-maintained by Council as infrastructure that is important to the region's economy. The property itself has an excellent newly-re-laid driveway. No 4WD is needed. There is enormous potential for tourist accommodation, with the famous Ellenborough Falls Reserve located only minutes away. Similarly, the general store, post office, community hall, public school and fire brigade are all within a short easy drive, or even a healthy walk for the active!
Motivated vendors have loved this property but needs must and they have decided to let it pass on. Expressions of Interest are invited.
