A unique small farm in the Mt Barker region has just come onto the market. Located on a quiet road only 5 kilometres from Mt Barker town, the property boasts good soils, an excellent water supply, an area of protected natural bush and a winter creek that runs through one corner. Nestled at the foot of Mount Barrow it has views of the Stirling Ranges to the north and is located in an incredibly peaceful part of the countryside, with wonderful neighbours on all sides. The school bus passes the gate and takes only 5 minutes to arrive at the newly built and refurbished K-12 Community College & Farm. The property is divided into 4 paddocks connected by a long raceway and is watered from 2 large dams and three troughs. All water is collected on the farm and is used to water stock, irrigate the 5 acres of vines and provide for the gardens and toilets. There is a large general purpose shed with cement floor and 3 phase power. The owner built mudbrick home has a charm that stems from the use of locally sourced building materials which include hand-made bricks and hand-hewn timbers. The current owners have raised four children in this open plan home which has generous living areas, 4 large bedrooms, an office and 2 toilets. One of the bedrooms is upstairs and has plenty of space for kids sleepovers. With 2 rainwater tanks which provide plenty of water for the household. The garden is well established and is a haven for a wonderful range of birds that have made their homes here. Contact John to have your own private viewing. Quote ZZF139
