Herne Hill WA 6056

A European family owned property is certainly not complete without the obligatory olive, mandarin, lemon, lime, mulberry, plum, prickly pear, pear, fig, apple, pomegranate, orange, avocado and mango trees!!! Oh and there is plenty of olive oil too that is produced from the 166 odd olive trees!

The property is fully reticulated via its own bore and there is a 24,500 kilolitre groundwater license that is also included in the sale. Recent sales of groundwater licences in the Perth-Leederville aquifer (Swan Confined groundwater subarea) have ranged from $9 to $11 per kilolitre which suggests that the water license value if circa $250,000.

At the end of the driveway there are 4 sheds which house some of the machinery and equipment as well as the main powered brick workshop which houses the large coolroom and is the main meeting place for family, friends and customers looking to buy some grapes, olive oil or fruit. It has that "Piazza" feel about it.
