R 5 585 000 | Farm for Sale in White River Estates

The owner has spent the past 40 years creating the most incredible garden and homestead. There are more than 250 species of indigenous trees, cycads and aloes growing on the property. In fact the plant growth on the property is so prodigious that it has created its own micro-climate. It always seems to be cool and inviting under the shade of the giant forest canopy. One can only imagine the birdlife that occurs here. In terms of the commercial aspect of the farm, there are more than 300 mature Macadamia trees as well as 31 bearing lime trees. The owner has farmed with both cattle and chicken over the years to generate income. In recent years the rental income from the three additional dwellings have been the big earners. Starting with the cottage, nearest entrance one of the property, it is comprised of two-bedrooms, two spacious bathrooms, two walk-in cupboards, kitchen, compact lounge, dining area and a pretty patio to sit and enjoy the farm and surrounds. This dwelling in particular is perfect for the short-term rental market. The other two properties which are used for rental income are made up of a fully restored 1920's farmhouse that has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, walk-in cupboard, kitchen, dinging area, very spacious lounge, patio, double carport and a storeroom.
