643 Carmodys Road, Longwood VIC 3665

Nutrien Harcourts Benalla are delighted to present Killara Park to the market. Very seldom does a property of this scale and capacity become available in such a fertile and working condition; from the extensive new fencing to the all-weather formed laneways, working stock here is a delight.

The homestead is a real feature of Killara Park - with a thorough top to bottom renovation in 2018, the 4 bedroom / 2 bath home exudes warmth and comfort. These updates have brought the home into a more contemporary layout with a large walk-in pantry and open living area connected to the family room. The 4th bedroom is currently in use as study, with French doors opening out to the wide veranda. The home is double-glazed for comfort and is set amongst an attractive landscaped garden teeming with native birdlife.

Currently home to the Hynam Poll Merino stud and commercial flock, the property has been set up with best practice stock handling in mind. The farm infrastructure in place features:
• 3 Stand raised board Shearing shed with concrete floor and ram feed shed within
• 2,000hd Gribben steel sheep yards with undercover handling area
• Pro-way steel cattle yards featuring a rotary force, vet crush ramp and trough
• 38 x 18m Hay shed (built 2017) 1,250 big square bale capacity & 2nd hay shed with capacity 200 big squares
• 4 x 40 ton silo grain storage with sight glasses and ground opening lid
• Recent lime history and annual fertiliser program in place, with improved pasture base
• Good to excellent fencing; laneway system to most paddocks
• Rainwater tank capacity of 220,000L
• Stock water provided by a series of large capacity dams totalling over 26 Meg
• Stock containment area in 4 pens with troughs - capacity 1,000 lambs

Apart from the commercial agricultural features of Killara Park, the aesthetic feel of the property is a truly special, with the 3.5km of the Muddy Waterhole Creek running diagonally through the property. The creek banks are lined by large stately redgums with a backdrop of the Highland Ranges to the South-west, and the Mt Ida Range to the East.

The valley position between these Ranges provides both fertile soils and regular rainfall - average rainfall is 600mm annually. The present owners have put approximately 100 Acres per year into crop with wheat sown this year, and the suitability of much of this land for cropping or fodder production is evident.

Situated in a golden triangle between the Rural City of Shepparton 47km to the north, Euroa 20km to the West, and Nagambie 20km to the East, this location is very close to both the Hume Freeway, and the Locksley airfield at the southern end of Carmodys rd.

Whether your farming ambitions lie in mixed farming, stud or commercial livestock, Killara Park delivers high-quality infrastructure with the hard work already done to make this a pre-eminent rural holding.
