It’s rare to see a property of this size with so much opportunity and potential contained in one extraordinary space. Located within the picturesque rolling hills of the Donnybrook-Balingup Shire on the Southwestern Highway tourism route and surrounded on 3 sides by State Forest, this unique 19.34-hectare agricultural lifestyle property is bursting with upside. Water is abundant, with two 50+ML dams connected by a perpetual spring line. Approximately 6 hectares of vines occupy selected sections of the land, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Rose and Chardonnay. These vines have produced award-winning wines, which are currently sold under the emerging Zein Estate label. There are also 200 trees in the Trufferie, which are comprised of a combination of English Oak, Hazelnut and Oak trees. A substantial section of land in the southeast corner of the property is most likely suited to the planting of more vines, or Avocado trees – the area is renowned for its production of this amazing fruit! At the front of the property, there is a recently renovated 2 bedroom shed-house, with open-plan living and a mezzanine floor in the main bedroom. The huge shed, which is perfectly positioned overlooking the first of 2 large, marron-laden dams, is in the early stages of being developed into a cellar door, with substantial plumbing work having been already carried out. The upside here is limited only by your imagination! The pump station features new pumps and filters, which can be controlled remotely, feeding the well-irrigated vineyard and trufferie. It would be completely understandable for you to retain this property in its current form as a beautiful lifestyle estate, however, given the location near Donnybrook - and within close proximity to Bunbury, Busselton and the Margaret River Region - further investment into this unique tourism proposition would be an option well worth consideration.
