Koronja is a great opportunity for Port Fairy hinterland living. Located 3 km from Port Fairy with a 1 km Moyne River frontage and set back just off the main road this small farm package in the highly sought after and tightly held locality of Rosebrook is very appealing. Presented with an early 1900's 3 bedroom cottage in original condition, the dwelling is in need of a major renovation but is serviceable in the short term. It is surrounded with a beautifully sheltered mature garden hosting an array of productive fruit trees. The cottage overlooks the Port Fairy Lough and its surrounds - Port Fairy Links golf course to the East and township of Port Fairy to the West. The ocean can be seen across the top of the East beach sand dunes. The land has 2 distinct soil types. Highly productive horticultural country at the South end, historically producing Belfast premium potatoes and onions. The balance of land area is to the North of the house. The soil types here are heavier black clay loams which support productive perennial pastures on long season grassy flats to maintain 30 to 40 adult cattle and support a healthy secondary income. The farm has historically been used for dairying/horticulture. It is split into several paddocks which are supplied with water from both the river and a bore behind the dairy. A solid set of steel cattleyards and stock loading ramp are in good working condition suitable for the modest numbers of cattle which are currently run here. Other working improvements include 2 machinery sheds and an industrial style high eave shed which was constructed for vegetable processing in the 1980's and is in excellent conditions with concrete floor, light and 3 phase power. It is currently used as the workshop. The river boundary features a large waterhole, used for recreation and even has a section with some 'rapids'. The Moyne is a permanent flowing and attractive watercourse offering a rare attribute to the other lifestyle characteristics of this excellent offering. Widely recognised as one of Australias premium holiday destinations, Port Fairy offers its residents a wonderful array of recreation (beaches, swimming, fishing, golf, surfing) in addition to the cultural and culinary experience of an historic fishing village and the warm country atmosphere of the district. Don't let this fantastic lifestyle opportunity pass. Scope to develop the property with a residential development will further enhance its value. The property is offered for sale by negotiation to genuine enquiries. Inspections are welcome by appointment with the agent.
