Situated just 2 kilometres south of Scone, the Horse Capital of Australia in the thriving Upper Hunter Valley, 'St Aubins Without' is an agricultural powerhouse. Offering position, lifestyle, productivity and a huge water licence, the property is within 2 hours of the coast, and 3 hours of Sydney.
Comprising 188ha / 450ac, 'St Aubins Without' is 100% alluvial creek flats. The majority of the property is pasture improved with lucerne based pastures and can be irrigated by either a new 8 span centre pivot, or travelling irrigators.
Water is a standout feature with a 993-unit irrigation licence (groundwater). A property with a long-standing history of productivity, 'St Aubins Without' had reliable irrigation water through the last drought. Stock and domestic water supplied via the wells, or town water connection. Frontage to the Kingdon Ponds.
Under current management a dairying operation has been run over the past 3 decades milking as many as 400 cows. Prior to this, beef cattle have been fattened on the property and fodder or cash crops grown. With its abundance of water and strong soils, 'St Aubins Without' could be used for a diverse range of agricultural, dairying or horticulture pursuits.
The country homestead has bullnose verandas and is built in double brick (c. 1986), comprising 4 bedrooms and measuring approximately 380 square metres. Set in an elevated position and enjoying beautiful views over the property. Please note that the homestead is in need of repair.
