Elders Rural Services Australia is pleased to present for sale 'Tamavua', a substantial 96.5 hectare (238.5 acre)* rural holding, superbly positioned within the tightly held Newham district of the Macedon Ranges.
Held by the same family for 46 years, 'Tamavua' presents a rare combination of scale, productive grazing country, established farm infrastructure and two residences, together with an impressive 1.2 kilometre* Plane and Poplar tree-lined driveway and expansive views towards Hanging Rock, Mount Macedon and the Jim Jim.
Just ten minutes* from Woodend and within one hour* of Melbourne CBD, the property combines an exceptional setting with genuine agricultural capability and convenient access to the Calder Freeway.
Further enhancing the opportunity, the adjoining 188.6 hectare (466 acre)* holding at 338 Boundary Road, Newham, incorporating much of the well-known 'Jim Jim', is also offered separately for sale. Together, the two properties provide the opportunity to secure a substantial 285.1 hectare (704.5 acre)* aggregation.
'TAMAVUA' RESIDENCE
Privately positioned within established gardens, the residence offers generous family accommodation with extensive views across the surrounding farmland.
The home comprises four bedrooms and three bathrooms, spacious living areas, formal dining, sunroom, verandah and a large office. Floor heating, an open fireplace, wood heater and two reverse-cycle split systems provide year-round comfort, while an adjoining two-car garage provides convenient direct access to the home.
The residence offers considerable scope for renovation and enhancement, while retaining the proportions and setting of a country home. The established, low-maintenance gardens feature mature conifers, shrubs and seasonal bulbs, with the home further surrounded by mature native and exotic trees in a semi-formal setting.
MANAGER'S COTTAGE
Complementing the main residence, a separate four-bedroom manager's cottage provides valuable additional accommodation for family, guests or farm management, with an outstanding outlook across the surrounding farmland.
THE FARM
'Tamavua' comprises productive, well-established grazing country, strategically subdivided into approximately 12 large paddocks, with mature Cypress shelterbelts and established native gums throughout. Long established for Hereford breeding, 'Tamavua' continues this tradition alongside annual hay production.
Excellent water security is a feature of the holding, provided by a solar powered bore and two dams, supplemented by seasonal streams.
The property is well equipped with a powered machinery shed, hay shed, shearing shed, cattle yards and ancillary shedding. An original bluestone barn provides a distinctive reminder of 'Tamavua's' long farming history and contributes further character to this established rural holding.
