Nutrien Harcourts is excited to offer "Nalinga" for sale.

Situated on Flinders Island where land is both very productive and highly regarded amongst primary producers, "Nalinga" covers approximately 286 hectares (707.22 acres) across 4 titles, with the farmhouse located on the smallest title. The home sits in established gardens with fruit trees, a vegetable garden and a hothouse, supporting a self-sufficient lifestyle.

Historically known for its "fat lamb" production, the current Owners (to their credit) have now improved and redeveloped this farm to run grass-fed beef. To that end, the pastures now include a mix of rye, clover and cocksfoot.

The property enjoys reliable water provided by Nalinga Creek, which is gravity fed from several large tanks to most paddocks via 2" pipelines. There are also 2 dams and a quality bore.

The farm is located in close proximity to the main township of Whitemark and the school bus allows drop off at the front gate. There are sweeping views of Mount Strzelecki and you are only 12 kilometres away from the spectacular Trousers Point Beach.

Farm infrastructure includes:

? Shearing shed (partially converted into a machinery shed)

? Cattle yards - in good working order, including a crush

? An additional machinery shed

? 2 single garages (one with a workshop)

? 1 three-bay open front garage

The main home on this property is a beautifully presented well-built, solid brick home with 4 good sized bedrooms, spacious living areas, kitchen, 2 bathrooms and toilets, laundry, office and a large dining room. There is a deck and a large outdoor area, providing an inviting entertaining area, sheltered by the surrounding garden.

The second dwelling is a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom cosy home with a fenced lawn and garden.

The 30-40 tree orchard includes cherries, apples, pears, plums, avocados, limes, apricots, olives, peaches, figs, lemons and oranges.

"Nalinga" had been extensively developed with improved pastures and approx. 95% of the fences have been renewed, with well thought out paddocks and laneway layout ensuring easy access to the entire property.

The current Owners have lovingly created many shelterbelts throughout the farm, creating shelter for stock and beautiful wildlife corridors for the abundant birdlife on Flinders Island.
