Description

1714 ac - 694 ha

Located just 2 km northwest of Cavendish in Victorias western district, the Kenilwoth estate is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register and is of significance at both the local and state level. Originally taken up in 1839 the Kenilworth run comprised approx. 63,000ac and was one of the largest in the Hamilton district before being subdivided in 1849 into Kenilworth North and Kenilworth South.

The original homestead (circa 1863) was designed by John Shanks Jenkins best known for designing the Princes Bridge in Melbourne. The present home is of interwar style comprising 4 bedrooms, central bathroom, office, living room, formal lounge and a large kitchen. The homestead is in excellent order as are the historic station outbuildings with most still in active use.

Water is an outstanding feature of the property with all paddocks being watered via an extensive piping system linked by both the main dam and a bore or though a reticulated system from the Wannon river.
Kenilworth is well suited to a range of agricultural pursuits including wool and sheep meat production, cattle grazing and cropping.

The property has extensive double frontage to the Wannon river and has excellent access to the regional city of Hamilton as well as the Grampians, south west coast and the wineries of the Coonawarra.

The property will be available as a whole or in three contingent lots of 750ac, 550ac and 400ac respectively.

Remarks:- This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to secure one of the districts jewels dont miss out.
