132 Clarkes Road

Very few farms in the Bega Valley offer the diversity of both plant and animal life yet can also provide excellent income as well. The property is a very generous 280 acres tucked under the wings of Mumbulla Mountain, Located above the frostline it offers an ideal climate for fruit trees, vegetables, flowers and other plants as well as the native animals and birds. It also offers grazing for 80 head of cattle with calves across 11 paddocks. Currently run as a Shorthorn Stud, we are offering you income, and flora and fauna unique to this property. The homestead is a 2 bedroom with a huge study that could be a bedroom if required, large open plan living area, timber kitchen, an oversized renovated bathroom with a spa bath and shower. A wood fire and air-conditioning for comfort. After a big day out in the paddocks, how about an inground pool, with a timber sauna. There's a large verandah to the rear of the house near the pool for entertaining and this extends over the pool for year round use and keeps the maintenance down and pool clean. A spare toilet and shower out here as well for pool days or days in the paddock or garden. The house yard features an orchard supporting 5 types of pears, lemons, persimmons, plums, limes, avocado, red delicious and granny smith apples. Tree species found include grey and black adler, Myrtle, yellow box Kapok tree, Kaurie, forest and peppermint gums, in fact way to many types to mention here with the owners identifying over 80 species of trees (inventory available) which provide not only a home to the amazing birdlife, it could be a potential source of income with seed collecting, propagation and trees like the Kapok that produce oils for soaps and candles, and many of the trees are flowering, idyllic for creating the most amazing honeys. Rainforest gullies meander across this property, nourished by clean mountain water from Mumbulla Mountain and the property features multiple streams and spring fed dams and billabongs. The mountain air here is fresh and pure with Mumbulla mountain not only being the stunning backdrop, it's responsible for the unique ecosystem. Shedding? A double garage, a single oversized caravan boat or camper garage as well as a 18m x 10m Machinery shed and an old dairy. The sheds and home are powered by 10kw solar system and mains power. Water security with the permanent creek as well as the multiple dams and a weir, capturing that pure mountain water and troughs and house tanks are gravity fed for convenience. Few properties offer the scenery, diversity and acreage size like 132 Clarkes road Greendale and whilst you'll feel a million miles from anywhere, your actually just 15 mins from the heart of Bega.
