Great farming opportunity

This in an ideal opportunity to own more than 16 hectares (40 acres) of gently sloping contour land at Churchill in the Latrobe Valley with close proximity to Hazelwood pondage – a 500-hectare man-made lake built as a cooling facility for International Power.

This provides an almost unlimited supply of clean, warm water that flows through the attractive stream on the property.
Currently grazing cattle, the property also includes a 34 x 12 x 6-metre igloo-type building that has been utilised for intensive vealer calf rearing, but could easily be adapted to a number of other alternatives.
The property is on a sealed road less than a kilometre from the town of Churchill and about 10 minutes drive to Morwell and the freeway.
Planning approval is granted for residence, with excellent home sites on the farm to build a dream home.
Latrobe City Council is supportive in principal to the development of aquaculture in the Hazelwood pondage vicinity and the bonus of ready access to Monash University – Gippsland (only 10 minutes away) created the perfect opportunity to aquaculture or hydroponic ventures.
Asking price $360,000.
For further information contact Elders Pakenham, 5941 0299.
