Mt Benger Orchard & Homestead

At the heart of Mt Benger Orchard sits this very handsome stone home which is as remarkable today as when it was built 1891. The original footprint is largely unchanged & the features faithfully retained, the sheer scale of this prominent six bedroom villa unfolds as you step across the threshold into another era.

This is the original Mt Benger Station homestead, once a sizable run the 43.1129 hectare property is now a niche lifestyle lot held in 4 titles. With 200 cherry trees plus apricots & plums totaling another 1,700 trees, all the plant required for the orchard is included. A roadside stall retails to a very busy state highway & the old wool shed doubles as a fruit packing shed. The balance of land is a mix, with good water rights there is the ability to run stock & supplement the orchard income.

This is a diverse property opportunity, set alongside the world class Roxburgh Gorge cycle trail and Lake Roxburgh. It is about to change hands, make it yours!
