The home is fully wired through out for 240 Volt & operates satisfactorily from a portable generator. The vineyard was established approximately 25 years ago with .5 of a hectare of both Shiraz and Cabernet and .2 of a hectare of Chardonnay. The vineyard is known as "Mount Moliagul Vineyard" and the wine produced from the vineyard has achieved coveted awards in the past. There was once an active Cellar Door in place. The opportunity exists to once again achieve this status if you have viticulture/vineron interests. The vineyard is still in good condition and with a little TLC will reward you with amazing returns of produce. The winery and vineyard equipment is available to purchase separately at a figure to be negotiated. Future asset infrastructure that is currently under construction in the area is the installation of the GWM Water pipeline. This property has subscribed to have the GWM water pipeline connection to the property with the water due to flow by October 2019. This will ensure a constant and reliable source of water to the property.

All of this is under 2 hours from Melbourne and only 50 minutes into the CBD of Bendigo. Inglewood and Dunolly are both only 15- 20 minutes away. Inspection is by appointment.
