Under the same family ownership for 100 years, "Mokera Downs" is steeped in history and offers a highly productive 269 acres* within close proximity to the Winchelsea township, the Otways and Geelong.
The original weatherboard home was relocated from Birregurra c1928 and offers 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, multiple living spaces, mud room, kitchen space, double garage and storage shed. Exuding charm and character throughout, this spacious family home will benefit from a modern refresh and would work well as a farm manager's residence or country weekender.
Externally, the main farmyard enjoys a separate access off the Princes Highway and features an array of impressive buildings including an 8-bay hay shed, fully enclosed large machinery shed, a quality 3-stand shearing shed (Knuckeys built c1975), stables, grain silo, equipment shed and wood shed. Structurally the property comprises 5 main paddocks, 2 holding paddocks closer to the house, 1 highly-regarded large dam (benefiting from the highway's water catchment) and 3 supplementary paddock dams.
The property is currently used mainly for cropping, but has a long and successful history of sheep/wool production and easily lends itself to a vast range of other farming possibilities including cattle, horses and hay production.
All of this is conveniently positioned on the Princes Highway and is only a short drive from Winchelsea which is quickly becoming a popular satellite town to the city of Geelong, with its well-regarded primary school, under-construction new aquatic centre, golf club, football/netball club, cafes & pubs.
An easy 20 minute drive up the highway gets you to the Waurn Ponds shopping centre, train station, Deakin University and Epworth Hospital whilst the Geelong CBD and waterfront are easily accessed only 30 minutes away.
Live the rural lifestyle or landbank for the future - the choice is yours!
