The property's name 'Karingal' has strong heritage behind it just like the property that today bears this same name. Meaning "Very Beautiful" and "Happy Home", this stunning 100 acre (40ha) property is quite befitting of its name. Situated 15 minutes west of Lithgow and just 25 minutes to Bathurst and amongst the highest ranges in the district, Karingal is a substantial property that will ensure fabulous family weekends and a productive turn out of stock on the well improved pasture.
The beautiful sandstone dwelling (built circa 1860) will embrace cool winters and warm summers with ducted air conditioning and combustion fireplace. The homestead also features a cool climate garden and a simply fabulous party room with a huge open fire to warm the occasional snowy night.
This is an exceptional opportunity to secure an historic landmark property for a buyer seeking the perfect mix of sandstone heritage with established gardens, often featuring in 'Daffodils at Rydal' and highly productive grazing pasture. This envious lifestyle is just minutes to the major centre of Lithgow, Wallerawang and proximate to the gorgeous village of Rydal with commuter train station.
Pasture & Stock:
Four established dams ensure year round water, one fed from a highly reliable spring that flows further across the property as a steady stream in wet periods.
Undulating paddocks with improved grasses and areas of tree shelter perfect for cattle or horses.
Existing yards will remain to assist the handling of stock.
Current Zoning:
RU1 Primary Production Rural Land, under the Lithgow City Council
The Dwelling:
Rich in history, the robust sandstone homestead, built in circa 1860, has been lovingly restored offering four large bedrooms, three with ample wardrobe space and a stunning main bathroom.
A second bathroom has been sensibly added, adjacent to the laundry.
The kitchen has been completely updated also with new stainless steel appliances, chic concrete bench and an uninterrupted outlook across the sprawling house gardens.
Separate to the main home, but very accessible is the fabulous games / recreation / bar room with concrete floor, massive open fire and bi-fold doors that bring the yard space into the room.
The property has enjoyed a steady & strong AirBnB income recently with very positive ratings and guest reviews.
Additional Buildings:
Near to the home is a carport for 4 vehicles with adjoining gardening shed, while the steel machinery shed behind this space is well located for tractors, wood store & additional machinery.
