After being in the same family for decades, this stunning property is on the market to be sold.

There are two units of Oxford Rural water, two 25000 litre tanks, power to the site already, a three-bay barn and cattle yards already in place. All you have to do is choose your house site and build, then enjoy panoramic views over your land to the surrounding mountains. The productive soil is Pahau and Waterton silt loams, according to S-maps and the pasture rarely dries off in summer. Subdivided into seven paddocks it could be grazed with any class of stock. Arguably one of the most popular areas for enjoying lifestyle living, the Ashley Gorge camp is just down the road and the Lees Valley Road is adjacent. The amenities of the vibrant and fast-growing town of Oxford are only 6km away and include the highly regarded Oxford Area School, the Oxford Club, bars and restaurants, a supermarket and pharmacy to name a few, as well as many community groups and clubs. There is also "Cavan Farm" fresh milk just 4km away, which brings you delicious, real fresh milk; straight from the farm to your fridge, with all the health benefits of un-pasteurized milk. Purchasers considering a lifestyle block should consider this, as the scale and fertility allow for an income, or alternatively it will be easier to lease out than a four-hectare block.
