56 Orchard Road Springside NSW 2800

Set across an impressive 197.8 hectares (488 acres) of productive and picturesque country, Sherborne presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial holding with excellent infrastructure, quality pastures and a character-filled homestead, all within easy reach of Orange.
At the heart of the property sits an early 1900s double-brick homestead with later extension, rich in character and charm. The original residence features three bedrooms, a living room and kitchen, with high ceilings, timber floors, ornate cornices, double-sided fireplaces, and verandahs on two sides. The kitchen, renovated in the 1990s, offers an electric stove and oven, original Aga-style stove, dishwasher, timber cabinetry and ample storage.
The extension provides a spacious family room with a large skylight flooding the space with natural light, a slow-combustion wood heater, and ducted air-conditioning. This area leads to a hallway with two additional bedrooms, both with built-in robes and carpet, a modern family bathroom with separate shower and clawfoot bath, and a laundry with a second shower and toilet.
The home is set within an established garden, complete with garden beds, two rainwater tanks and an outstanding collection of mature trees including sweet chestnut, European plum, Chinese quince, sycamore, mulberry, cotoneaster, camellia, strawberry tree, tulip tree, Mediterranean cypress, cherry plum, horse chestnut and bottlebrush.
The gently undulating land is well suited to grazing and livestock operations, featuring approximately 15 main paddocks, plus some smaller holding paddocks. Fencing is generally in good condition and varies from netting to six-bar cattle fencing. Water is well catered for with 4 dams and troughs servicing paddocks supplied by a reliable stock and domestic bore feeding via a 10,000-gallon poly tank.
Farm infrastructure includes steel and timber cattle yards with adjacent steel sheep yards, a two-stand timber shearing shed, a 20m x 6m steel-framed machinery or hay shed, and extensive chook yards. The property is enhanced by extensive planted tree lines of predominantly native species, along with scattered mature white gums and yellow box trees, providing shelter and natural beauty. Productive pastures are a mix of improved species including cocksfoot, rye grass and lucerne, complemented by quality native pasture.
Access is available via Orchard Road or Bulls Lane, and while subdivision potential exists it is subject to council approvals. Ideally located just 15 km from the Orange CBD, 12 km from Orange Health Service, 16 km from historic Millthorpe, and approximately 262 km from Sydney.
Sherborne offers the perfect blend of productive rural living, heritage charm, and a rare opportunity to secure a holding of this size conveniently close to the major regional centre of Orange. Call today to secure your private inspection.
