Near the foot of the Porongurup Ranges in lush cattle and viticulture country, this picturesque 40.47ha farmlet promises an idyllic lifestyle.

The long-established property is an excellent stock block, with good grazing pasture and stands of red gum and bushland for shade and shelter.

Well watered from a huge dam and a winter creek running through the lower paddock, the land is gently undulating and soils are rich loams.

A mixed orchard of mature fruit trees and three good-sized sheds are other advantages of this property, which is currently running sheep.

In addition to the lovely old home on the house block, there is a second, more modern home. Both are set in lawns and garden areas with a backdrop of tall gums.
The old home is a charming timber building with big rooms reflecting the era, high ceilings, the original windows and jarrah floorboards throughout.

From the front deck, a hallway leads to two sizeable front rooms, one a lounge and the other the main bedroom, and through to a big, open country kitchen and dining room – perfect for family gatherings – and a second bedroom.

The third bedroom, a sleepout, is at the rear, next to a deck with the bathroom and laundry facilities, and an outlook to the Porongurup National Park.

Sensitive restoration retaining the original features will reward the owners with a delightful, historic character property.

The other three-bedroom, one-bathroom home nearby also enjoys views of the Porongurups from a corner lounge window. This could be an appealing home for family members or convenient guest quarters for visitors.

One of the many alternative opportunities would be for owners to live in this and apply to use the old home as a short-term holiday rental for the growing number of discerning tourists attracted to the area.

Located on the corner of Woodlands Road and Porongurup Road, the property is next to the Thai Restaurant and a short drive away from the Porongurup Store and village.

Within 20 minutes of Mt Barker and 30 minutes of Albany, it is ideal for farmers downsizing after handing on the family farm or for those looking for a productive, manageable holding in a good rainfall area.
