Homestead, water, location!
The catchline nearly says it all. Homestead, water and location.
Add to that, 213.5 hectares of quality undulating loamy trap soils and improved pastures and you’ve got the quinella that is “Shingle Flat”.
Situated just 5 kilometres from Armidale, the 5-bedroom homestead is in top order and looks across the 527 acre property, which extends to the eastern side of Commissioners Waters.
The home is perfect for a large family and for entertaining. The living room and morning room are large and complement the outside covered deck area.
The kitchen is in galley style and serves both the living room and the morning room. Facing northeast, it soaks up the morning sun.
In addition to the five bedrooms, there is a sewing room/office, a second room that could be a study for more than one person, 2 bathrooms, laundry and double garage.
The garden runs along the front of the house to meet up with raised beds full of home-grown produce.
Nearby, a steel machinery shed combines with a 2-stand shearing shed and sheep yards. This shed is about 330m² in size.
Water security is outstanding, with over 4 kilometres of frontage to Commissioners Waters, about 900 metres of which is double frontage. Shingle Creek also crosses the property. To supplement the 18 dams, water from the river is reticulated throughout the property via tank and troughs.
The property sale includes a 15 megalitre water access licence which can be utilised for irrigation.
The country is mostly gently undulating and very easy to traverse. The entire property has a history of fertiliser and pasture improvement over the years. It is divided into 23 paddocks, all by fences in excellent order. One of the three sets of sheep yards is on the eastern side of the river and services four paddocks. A set of cattle yards is located near the property entrance.
“Shingle Flat” offers a spacious homestead, secure water and a premium location on over 213 hectares of loamy trap soils.
