Maxfield is a stunning 289 acre / 118 hectare (approx) property that offers the perfect balance of farming and lifestyle living.
With a 60/40 mix, the front of the property features expansive, open paddocks where cows, sheep, and horses can roam freely, while the rear is home to hidden dams, native forests, and a network of horse and bike riding tracks.
The charming 3 bedroom cottage, sited well away from the road, boasts a picturesque view over a large dam. In excellent condition, it is bathed in natural light throughout the day and during the colder months, the north-facing windows, combined with a fireplace and reverse cycle air conditioning, efficiently warm the home. In summer, the wrap-around verandah provides protection from the heat and offers a relaxing spot for a cold drink and a laugh.
The family living area is a standout feature of the home, overlooking the paddocks and dam. It includes a spacious, renovated open-plan kitchen that is both functional and well-equipped with a new cooktop. The large windows and high ceilings create a sense of space and openness. Behind the kitchen is a generously sized laundry with an additional exit door, making it perfect for use as a mudroom.
The home also features a practical 3-way bathroom, ideal for busy mornings when everyone needs to get ready at the same time. Both the kitchen, laundry, and bathroom are serviced by electric hot water, and there are ample water tanks.
A central hallway connects the three bedrooms, with two of them benefiting from a northerly aspect and ample space. These rooms enjoy wonderful views of the surrounding paddocks and rural landscape, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere throughout the home.

The farm features excellent grazing paddocks located to the north or front of the property. These paddocks are expansive, open, and feature great pasture coverage, complemented by several well-positioned dams. In recent years, the land has seen improvements through over-seeding and fertiliser applications, with additional areas being reclaimed for pasture.
The rear portion of the property is characterised by forested areas, accessible via tracks that wind through the landscape. As you navigate through, you'll come across several large dams. While much of this section is dense with native flora, it has proven to be highly productive, with the current owner successfully running 32 young cows throughout Winter 2024, achieving excellent results. This bio-diverse part of the farm offers great potential for selective clearing and enhancement, provided the appropriate approvals are obtained. There are existing neighborly precedents that support this approach.
