Last Listing description (April 2023)
BEAUTIFUL, SOFT, SECLUDED VALLEY
40 km BATHURST
This large acreage is a genuine eye opener - a private, secluded valley protected on 3 sides by rugged, timbered hills. The valley itself covers over 1,000 acres, with a soft floor, 650 acres of which has been recently sown down to grazing wheat. With frontage to the Council maintained Freemantle road, access is not a problem, taking approx hour drive from Bathurst. A reliable creek runs through the valley, providing over 6km of double frontage, and there are several stock dams. Improvements are all in very good condition, comprising an open bay shed, 2 lock-up sheds and steel cattle yards. One of the lock-up sheds provides very comfortable accommodation.
This large, private acreage would be ideal for hunting/recreation and/or grazing. The protected valley is certainly something special almost unique even. The soft and fertile valley floor areas provide the ideal protected environment for grazing or wildlife - food, protection and water. With most of the valley cleared and cultivated, the open areas are accessible and generally easy to get around. Protected by heavily timbered hills running up from the valley floor, it is a genuinely private and secluded setting.
Altitude ranges from 650m - 700m in the valley to 850m - 900m high points on some of the surrounding hills. The sheds have been strategically positioned on one of the high points near the road access - providing easy access, spectacular access both to the east and west, mains power and mobile phone coverage.
Located: 40 km from Bathurst, 40 km from Orange and 240 km from Sydney. From Bathurst, the road is sealed but for the last 4 km, of good all-weather gravel road.
Area: Total area approx 1109 hectares (2740 acres). Approx 650 acres recently cultivated and sown down with forage crop, approx 1300 acres uncleared native bushland, with the remainder cleared and some of which could provide some grazing value.
Whether it be for recreation or grazing, 'Sunshine Valley' is a delightful experience and well worth an inspection for genuine, astute buyers. Experienced hunters will really appreciate what this property offers - the rare combination of privacy, with the attraction of abundant feed, safe water and protection - both the timbered surrounding area and from the elements.
'SUNSHINE VALLEY' will be offered for sale by Public Auction at 10.30am on Friday 22nd July 2022 in the Ray White Auction Room, 152 William Street Bathurst.
