Rowley Roberts and Greenfields Stud may be a distant memory to those in the thoroughbred industry. Rowley, a short lad, stood tall breeding gallopers for 60 plus years on Mangles Road Stirling Estate.
Progeny from Greenfield raced all over Australia. His former property is a very serviceable 15 acres divided into numerous paddocks with shelter sheds, winter water course forms a quaint dam that's home to the local and fifo ducks.
All the fruit is here with brick stables, tack room and wash down bay. Steel framed wiwo stables, round yard and a leaning (Pisa) shed.
The homestead is around 100 years old (not on the heritage list) as is another timber stable with two boxes. The homestead has sloping floors two bedrooms, sleep out, spacious lounge with an open fire. The dining room is between the lounge and kitchen. The floors are jarrah as is the 1.2m dado around the wall. Toilet located in the wash house (laundry).
The property has been used to train horses for the last 25 years as you can ride directly into the Stirling Forest to condition the horses along the tuart soils of the firebreaks around the forest. Here is a great chance to camp in the old homestead whilst you build a palace alongside and $625,000.00 allows you to do that without over capitalising.
