Most buyers who seek a move to regional Victoria have similar aims and objectives.
Often high in the list of priorities is proximity to a good town as career or new work opportunities are often sought.
Another is a quality family home on enough acreage to run a hobby farm or even a decent scale of farming or homesteading interest.
So productive soils, good water resources, plus a bonus of excellent infrastructure in terms of shedding, fencing and other facilities always adds to the appeal of the package.
A property that easily meets these objectives located at 1165 Boweya Road Boweya in the north east is currently listed for sale by Elders Real Estate in Wangaratta.
With an asking price of $799,000 the property has been extensively developed to an exceptional standard by the vendor couple who are selling to seek a return closer to their family.
The property has a triangular shape with three long frontages including two to bitumen roads including the principal frontages to Boweya (over 600 metres) and Doune (over 800 metres) Roads.
The land area is 20 hectares, or 50 acres, and what was originally one large cropping paddock has been fenced only quite recently into a seven paddock subdivision centred on a laneway access system.
The vendors have sown a portion down to drought resistant lucerne and other paddocks to an oats and rye mix.
This enables them to easily run livestock, that could allow up to fifteen to twenty dairy beef steers, plus they cut multiple large hay rolls each season.
And there are new stock yards, a crush and loading race, even electric fencing, while most paddocks have double width gate entries.
The quality brick family home with three bedrooms and one bathroom presents impressively and it sits in a garden environment, as well as taking in good views of the surroundings which include the backdrop of the Warby Ranges and nearby conservation reserves.
A 9kW split system with evaporative cooling and a cosy wood heater for the winter months takes care of comforts plus there are three new tanks for adequate rainwater storage for household and garden uses, plus one large and recently refurbished dam equipped with a pump that feeds to a large header tank storage then supply is gravity reticulated to stock troughs in each paddock.
This property has quite outstanding shedding of recent construction including a multiple bay hay and machinery shed, plus another building originally built as a horse shelter but now used for hay storage. There is a double carport adjoining the home.
Then there is the large secure steel fully clad high clearance building measuring twenty metres by twenty metres, half with a concreted floor and with power connected.
It has two large sliding doors and could easily suit a range of uses from a trades or home based business or storage, even a serious hobby.
It is ideal for transport or machinery operations or maintenance.
The vendors say, "this property delivers a great lifestyle in a solid local community, plus its peace and quiet, yet with ready access by bitumen roads to three good regional centres make it an ideal and productive rural living place and would be ideal for sheep, cattle or equine enthusiasts."
Elders Real Estate's selling agents say that 1165 Boweya Road Boweya has been developed by the vendors with great thought to an exceptional standard for family living and for productive farming interests.
"In short everything is in place at this property and there would be little work for a purchaser other than just to move in and enjoy all the resources that the vendors have created to an exceptional standard".
