Supporting infrastructure includes a pool shed, a character-filled wooden farm shed, and a two-bay pole shed. The land is fully fenced and suitable for horses or stock, with established plum, almond, apple, apricot, and hazelnut plantings. A picturesque pond with pumping system, a newly constructed 50-tonne load-bearing bridge, and a brand-new septic system complete the offering. Properties of this calibre, in this location, with this level of investment, are seldom offered. The vendors are motivated, the groundwork is done, and a sale is expected.
