For Sale by Expression of Interest. Expected interest for the property to exceed $600,000

Formally part of ‘Spring Vale’ homestead, 787 Rhyndaston Road, Rhyndaston offers a fantastic opportunity to purchase an entry level grazing property. Set upon approx. 95.06 ha (234 acres); this holding offers the following:

House:
Circa 1970, we have a renovated weatherboard three-bedroom family home with a north facing rural aspect. The open plan dining/living room is warmed by a free-standing Ultimate woodfire and the spacious timber kitchen has a plenty of cupboard storage, a large pantry, Euromaid freestanding cooker + a Westinghouse oven.

There are 3 good size bedrooms along with a separate toilet/laundry, a porch/wetroom and a modern bathroom.

Polished timber floorboards are featured throughout all of the 139sqm floorplan of this family home, with hardwearing, easy care tiles in the bathroom/laundry.

The home is connected to 2 above ground water tanks, has a septic sewerage system and NBN satellite.

Outbuildings:
A collection of well-maintained storage sheds which including the following:
• Single stand timber shearing shed and holding yards.
• Two three-bay and four-bay machinery sheds.
• Lockable chemical/fertilizer shed.
• Workshop and storage shed.

Pasture:
Approximately 54ha (138 acres) of the holding has been cleared from its past use as a plantation property (Tasmanian Eucalyptus Nitens). Stumps and branches have been windrowed and remain post deforestation of the holding in the early 2020’s. Native pasture has re-germinated post logging activities, offering fodder for around 70 head of crossbreed sheep and lambs. The remaining 70/80 acres is native Tasmanian bushland. The property offers a sandy loam soil base within a high rainfall area (average 635 mm annually) of Southern Midlands/Coal River Valley. The holding presents an opportunity to cultivate back to pasture or re-establish a eucalyptus plantation.

Area:
Settled in 1860, Rhyndaston and the surrounding area bore the name ‘Flat Top’ until it was re-named after a property owned by Welsh pioneer, Charles Meredith. The name Rhyndaston is a Welsh name meaning ‘Mouth of the Hole’. The main centre of attraction in Rhyndaston is the railway tunnel which was completed in 1876.

A school bus service takes children to Oatlands from Rhyndaston and Australia Post offers drive by delivery.

Rhyndaston is only a 20-minute drive south of Oatlands (via Stonor and Rhyndaston Roads) and Hobart CBD is a little over 50 minutes’ drive (via Coal Valley) away.

787 Rhyndaston Road offers plenty of options as a grazing holding or to re-invest in as a native plantation for the entry farmer or farming family as their first dip into the agriculture industry.
