The ultimate Lifestyle Property/Farm with Abundant Opportunities

The ultimate lifestyle/ farm package on approximately 25 acres (10 hectares) of rich, fertile, red volcanic soils in Wandin East, heart of the Yarra Valley, conveniently accessing the eastern suburbs commuter belt and only 1 hour from the CBD.

Currently operated as a cherry and apricot orchard but possesses the land, water and superb infrastructure to suit a myriad of applications including berry growing, wine production or a premier equestrian property. Further expansion could include additional trees, grapes, berries, flowers or even livestock.

The high quality home has stunning views over the orchard, pastured paddocks and mountains beyond. A welcoming modern colonial style home surrounded by wide timber decked verandahs. Built with quality in mind this 18 year old home has ornate architraves, Tasmanian myrtle flooring and a beautiful American oak kitchen with large walk-in pantry, complemented with dark granite bench tops and Miele & Smeg stainless steel appliances.

Four spacious bedrooms and a large "open living" style family room help create two defined living areas. Axminster wool carpet to formal lounge and master bedroom. Godfrey Hirst wool carpet to rest of house. The genuine "parents retreat" has ensuite, large walk in robe and a private study with outdoor access. Established garden around house including many fruit and nut trees irrigated from the dam

As an added bonus there is an impressive solar power system generating about 5.4 kva through 22 panels. It's comfortable year round living without the power bills from the large central Coonara heater and the ducted electric split system with LPG back up.

The rich red volcanic soil gently slopes to a strong permanent creek and large catchment dam. Included in the sale is a 10 ML irrigation license allowing ample water to be pumped through the underground pipes to all areas of the property. There is also a huge domestic water storage tank of 180,000 litres supplied by runoff from the massive roof area of the home and shedding.

The exceptional infrastructure includes an enormous Warehouse style clear-span 20mx30m shed suitable for many home industries or farming applications and a 6mx30m machinery shed with 10 bays.

Fully fenced and electrified livestock paddocks of approximately 5 acres each. One clear of trees and pasture sown, another with a variety of mature gum trees in a park like setting with creek frontage, fabulous for relaxing or perhaps even cabins or camping STCA, also ensures ample firewood. An open cleared area of approximately five acres where an older orchard has recently been removed.


Zoned Green Wedge 2 which allows flexibility for a number of potential tourism uses including accommodation STCA.
