Last Listing description (June 2022)

When Burke and Wills set off on their expedition from Melbourne in 1860, aiming to cross Australia from south to north, they passed by some of the country's best agricultural land. The properties known as 'Baynton' and 'Glenhope' on Burke and Wills Track approximately 87km* northwest of Melbourne in the Macedon Ranges, were no exception.

As time has rolled on, the generational owners of the 'Baynton' and 'Glenhope' holdings have nurtured and farmed the land to produce award winning fine wool, beef, wheat and hay; but time has come to pass the baton to the next generation of owners.

'Baynton' is 65.7* hectares and consists of two titles, 'Glenhope' is 80.6* hectares and consists of 6 titles: collectively both parcels total 146.3* hectares (361.6* acres).

Historic & award winning grazing country 87km* north west of Melbourne's CBD
Collectively 146.3ha*, acquire both or consider one
Original farm Californian bungalow, working shearing shed & additional improvements
Brilliant rolling hills and pasture vistas in every direction

BAYNTON

The family homestead block for generations, 'Baynton' features the classic farm driveway entrance, meandering through front paddocks to the original Californian bungalow and collection of outbuildings.

Surrounded by beautiful cottage gardens with established shade trees, the Californian bungalow includes 3 bedrooms, living area, kitchen, internal bathroom, and toilet. The home also features a recent 'Aurora' solar power system upgrade. Other improvements surrounding the home complex include an enclosed garage / workshop, old dairy now used for storage and numerous outbuildings used for storing plant, equipment, and hay. A small working shearing shed packed with rustic charm, sits to the front of the property, and overlooks a dam and the bungalow.

Totalling 65.7ha* across two titles, the property crosses over Polhman Creek and includes 'Griffin Hill' which rises 666^ metres above sea-level and provides a brilliant 360-degree view of the region. Mostly used to produce fine wool, the land was kept fertile in the early days by the spread of super phosphate spread from the air strip at the bottom of the Griffin Hill by a Cessna plane.

GLENHOPE

The block used by the current owners for grazing and cropping purposes, 'Glenhope' has awe inspiring rolling hills and pasture vistas in every direction. Even more impressive is the remnants of early settlement dry stone walls and the quaint original timber clad home with stone chimney still intact.

The front of the property has sweeping elevated views to the east and gently drops away to meet the Pohlman Creek, which forms a 560* metre creek frontage boundary to the property. Consisting of 6 titles totalling 80.6ha*, the property's size may facilitate scope for rural subdivision (STCA), but certainly provides ample site choice for a single dwelling.

With a small set of sheep yards located at the font of the block, 'Glenhope' is ready to go for grazing pursuits whilst considering other options including further agricultural development, a single dwelling site or rural subdivision (STCA).

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS LISTING

The History - Remnants of the original farmhouse with stone chimney and surrounding dry stone walls, constructed by fence builders that came from England for that purpose, remain as a marker to early settlement. These stone walls were and are still a jewel of the property revered by many around the district. In more recent times, members of the family have won national awards for the production fine wool still produced on the property to this day.

The Location - At only 87km* northwest of Melbourne, the properties sit at the midway point between Melbourne and Bendigo, in the Macedon Ranges Shire. Bendigo is a further 73km* northwest, with the vibrant regional township of Kyneton approximately 26km* to the west.

The Diversity Of Opportunity - The properties are located a small distance apart and are being offered for sale as "a whole" or "separately". The larger 'Glenhope' property consists of 6 titles with total area of approximately 80.6ha* may provide for subdivision opportunity (STCA). The fertile soil and pastures have proven history of fine wool, wheat and hay production and the region is synonymous for wine making and other agricultural pursuits.
