The large 5-bedroom Victorian style main house with original features, comfortable 3-bedroom manager’s cottage, bachelor’s flat, office and garage all form part of the homestead and share a large lush garden and lawn. The main house has wooden floors and ceilings and a portion of the attic has been converted into a loft that is used as a private office. A fireplace in the lounge area and other period features adds to the charm of this house that was built around 1900.
The eight neat labourer’s cottages each has their own solar geyser, electricity and running water.
The packing shed measures 1645 square meters and consist of 2 graders, an office, cold room, loading area, ablution facilities and a large storage area above the packing shed that is used for storage of the packaging material. A restroom and area where meetings can be held is close to the packing shed.
The workshop measures 130 square meters and the shed that houses the farming equipment measures around 238 square meters.
Another house near the packing shed is currently used for storage but can easily be renovated and used as residence, allowing about 4 families to stay on the premises.
All the infrastructure has been regularly maintained and are in excellent condition.
