Development opportunity on this unique lifestyle property in Klipkop Estate. The Elgin Valley is known for its apples, pears and cool climate wines with the bustling Elgin Railway Market situated within an old apple warehouse which boasts local food and craft vendors. Famous for the many mountain biking and hiking trails, this is a nature lovers paradise. Klipkop Estate is a rural, residential development on the outskirts of the Grabouw town, where many homeowners keep horses and tend to self sufficient gardens. Properties are in general 4000m in size and ideal for dual family living with enough space for privacy and tranquility.
This property was sadly caught in the fires that the valley experienced a while back and the current owners have decided against restoring the building. The plans are still available should you decide to rebuild the property. Alternatively the property can be sub-divided into either a further 2 or 3 units allowing for no less than 2000m in size subdivisions.

There is a sliding gate at the entrance of the property which was automated however the gate motor needs attention. There is also a concrete, salt water swimming pool, 14m x 5m in size with pump, filter and salt chlorinater. The property has access to the Swannie River, which borders the property and some fencing will need to be restored.
With many options possible on this extra large piece of land it''s best to walk the property to get a better feel and understanding of the development opportunities available.
