Matcham Park represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure Gloucester's Trophy Country Estate - a breathtaking amalgamation of productive agricultural land, exceptional water security, and a grand homestead of rare scale and sophistication. LAND Spanning approximately 212 acres, Matcham Park is a highly productive and versatile holding of rich alluvial river flats under irrigation rolling through to undulating grazing country, representing some of the finest and most productive agricultural land in the Gloucester District. Carrying a long history of fertiliser application and pasture improvement, the property features a number of paddocks with high-performance perennial pastures alongside vigorous summer-growing pastures underpinned by a strong kikuyu and clover base. The current owners run 70 cows and calves across the holding, a testament to the quality and carrying capacity of the country. Thoughtfully divided into 15 paddocks with dedicated laneways, the layout is ideally suited to a rotational grazing system. Beautiful established seasonal and native trees are scattered throughout, adding character and shelter across the holding. WATER Water security is a standout feature of Matcham Park, with 1.2 kilometres of frontage to the Gloucester River and a 76 ML Water Access Licence (WAL) supporting irrigated production. A 180-metre centre pivot irrigates the river flats, powered by a mains-powered pump drawing directly from the river. A second mains-powered pump on the river services stock and domestic needs. Twelve stock troughs are distributed throughout the paddocks, complemented by 4 dams and seasonal creek systems running throughout the property - ensuring reliable water access across all seasons. HOMESTEAD A grand country estate of rare scale and sophistication, the homestead spans approximately 1,000m² and sets a benchmark for rural living in the Gloucester region. Designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the residence offers a large open-plan kitchen appointed with stone benchtops and dual islands. The kitchen flows seamlessly into generous open-plan dining with fire place and lounge area, creating a connected and inviting living space. A dedicated billiard room and second lounge with a full bar and fireplace provides a distinguished space for entertaining. The primary suite offers a private retreat with ensuite and walk-in robe, while three large bedrooms each feature built-in robes and direct access onto the wrap-around balcony. A well-appointed main bathroom, a study or fifth bedroom, and a laundry with second bathroom complete the floorplan. Outdoors, a covered alfresco with fireplace extends the living and entertaining space, while a porte-cochere provides elegant covered parking at the entry. Beautifully established and landscaped gardens surround the homestead, creating a setting of timeless charm and privacy. Across the road sits a recently renovated second dwelling, currently tenanted and returning rental income - equally suited as a manager's cottage, guest accommodation, or family living quarters. INFRASTRUCTURE Supporting the productive operation of the property, the infrastructure is both practical and well-appointed. A lockup shed with carport provides vehicle storage, complemented by a lockup and open-bay machinery shed housing farm equipment and a workshop, topped with solar panels to offset operational power costs. The original dairy building adds further utility to the property, featuring a coolroom within - ideal for a range of agricultural and lifestyle uses. A large hay shed services the storage of hay and silage, while steel cattle yards with an undercover crush complete the operational setup. LOCATION Matcham Park enjoys an enviable position just a short walk from the heart of Gloucester township, offering the rare combination of true rural privacy and immediate access to town amenities. Bordering the Gloucester River, the property sits directly opposite Gloucester Park - one of the region's most beloved recreational spaces - creating an outlook and lifestyle that is simply irreplaceable. This is country living at its finest, without compromise.
