Expressions of interest are invited for the purchase of Willawah, a beautiful multi-generational beef cattle property in the picturesque foothills of the Snowy Mountains.
The property boasts over 200 ha of fertile farmland in the highly sought-after Courabyra area, 5km North of Tumbarumba township.
The property is currently operated as a family beef cattle farm, with 15 fully fenced, stock-proof paddocks supporting half a dozen bulls, over 120 breeding cows and annual calves, with capacity to increase productivity if desired.
Being located in an acknowledged and envied high rainfall area enables excellent pasture production and the feeding of ten dams located across the property. Natural springs also feed half of the dams and one spring deserves special mention, as it has never failed to produce, even providing critical supply during the notorious drought of 2001.
The 215 sqm, three-bedroom brick home is conveniently located at the front of the property, with easy road access. It features two double size and one standard bedroom. Central to the home is a newly replaced fan-forced free standing wood heater that has additional ducting installed to enable heating of the whole house. There are two internal living areas and an additional adjoined 30 sqm, enclosed outdoor entertainment area, providing plenty of space to relax. The fully fenced house yard features a well-maintained garden, a woodshed, a chook pen, a glass house and an established vegie patch.
There is a three-bay shed adjacent to the house that serves as garage and storage. A convenient 30m from the house stands the 23m x 13m machinery shed, where all the farm machinery is currently stored and maintained.
Other infrastructure includes cattle yards with an attached storage building (including an old-school meat room), a 16m x 16m hay shed, a 15 sqm woodshed and a newly re-designed and built bridge across the creek, future-proofed against any potential flooding events.
The property is made up of two separate titles so there is potential for future division of the property if desired. The entire property is being offered as one lot but there is an option for purchase of the property only or the property and business as a going concern, including all machinery, stock and other farm equipment.
The property is being sold privately by the family so contact Kelly to arrange an inspection.
