Property Description

Substantial equine facilities, subdivision potential, and highly functional accommodation options define this remarkable 8.1-hectare estate, superbly positioned between Rolleston and West Melton. Offering an array of lifestyle and investment opportunities, this property caters to horse enthusiasts, developers, and those seeking multi-generational living or additional rental income.

The main residence is a four bedroom home with neutral décor. A light-filled central living area opens to a generous deck, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces. Climate control is ensured with a logburner, heatpump, heat transfer system and double glazing. Two bathrooms service the home, ensuring comfort and convenience for all.
At the back of the main residence is a fully fenced two bedroom cottage (Cottage 1). Also near the main residence is a one-bedroom Portacom with a kitchenette, toilet, heatpump and fenced garden which provides accommodation flexibility.
An additional two-bedroom cottage (Cottage 2), is located near the training track. This residence is complete with a covered deck, heat pump and log burner, offering a private retreat-ideal for guests, extended family, or rental income.
A cosy games room and bar (converted from a shed/games room) with logburner, has an unconsented kitchen and bathroom. This is a fabulous space offering flexibility of use.

Previously operated as a harness racing establishment and now running as a dual standardbred/thoroughbred horse training facility, the property boasts premier racing and equestrian infrastructure, including:
• 760m oval sand training track
• 60m x 25m all-weather sand arena with four adjoining day yards
• Stable block with five stables, hot water wash bay, and tack room
• Four walk-in, walk-out yards
• Three-bay hay shed, implement sheds, and tool and wood sheds
• Nineteen additional paddocks and a separate lunging ring

With established shelter belts, the property is accessible via three separate entrances and has subdivision potential. A proposed plan would separate approximately 5.3ha, featuring its own access off Newtons Rd, a two-bedroom cottage, a training track, paddocks, and additional infrastructure.
For investors, the property currently generates strong rental income, with tenants in Cottage 1 and Cottage 2 paying $380 per week each. The main house could be tenanted for $650 per week.
Whether you're seeking a premier equestrian estate, a lucrative rental investment, a development opportunity, or continue in the current successful horse training capacity, this property offers unparalleled possibilities. With offshore commitments already in place, the owners motivation is labelled urgent.
