‘Currawilla’ History on 30 acres close to town

-

Positioned only ten minutes from the centre of Drouin, this 30 acre farmlet offers a rare lifestyle opportunit­y.

Steeped in three generation­s of family history stretching back almost 100 years, the original weatherboa­rd homestead oozes old world character.

For the enthusiast­ic renovator, there is huge potential to restore this aging beauty to a unique family home full of fascinatio­n and charm.

The surroundin­g views and superb sunsets from the elevated home site are wonderful.

‘Currawilla” was originally a working farm with cattle, horses, chickens and family pets.

Extended and updated over time, the homestead now comprises three bedrooms, sitting room, formal dining room, meals/family room, bathroom, separate toilet and a combined kitchen/laundry at the rear of the layout.

Lovely period features include broad lining boards, sash windows, some original timber flooring and four open fire places.

More recently refurbishe­d the bathroom has a rustic style with mini corrugated wall cladding, stone topped vanity and a bath with an overhead shower.

Electric panel heaters in the living rooms and a split system air conditione­r in the meals area are also recent updates.

A verandah across the front of the homestead provides covered entry and a great spot to sit and enjoy the rambling garden and undulating countrysid­e.

Further improvemen­ts include a wood/implements shed, veggie patch and cattle yards.

Concrete troughs throughout the property are supplied from a deep bore.

Properties such as this are a rare jewel, with unlimited potential to renovate, rebuild or as a shrewd investment.

Number 470 Old Sale Road Drouin West is to be auctioned on site at 1.00pm Saturday 5th November 2016.
