Little Minnows - A hidden paradise on the river

A truly unique home designed and built around age-old bridge timbers
Delightful gardens, dry stone walls, huge variety of trees and bird life
Superb 118 acres of rich grazing country, extraordinary Highland views
247,500 litres of water storage plus Riparian water rights, one dam
9 paddocks with some producing lucerne and pasture silage bales
Excellent fencing, all electrified, cattle yards
Beautiful gorge developed into a wildlife corridor and protected ecosystem
5 minutes to Bowral, 1.5 hours to Sydney, tranquillity and privacy assured

It doesn’t get more private than this and the views are simply incredible. A superb 118 acres on the Wingecarribee River with a one-off home designed around rustic hardwood timbers sourced from an old railway bridge in Bungendore. A truly unique home surrounded by magnificent gardens with gorgeous dry-stone walls, numerous tree species and sprawling lawns gently undulating to the river. As a result the variety of birdlife is quite extraordinary.

Designed by renowned architect Richard Rowe, the home features formal lounge, family room, combined kitchen and dining with raked timber beam ceilings, 3/4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, loft style games room or art studio, alfresco dining/entertaining porch, protected private veranda and an enclosed sun/garden room. All the doors and double glazed windows are framed in the aforementioned bridge timbers adding a special character to this wonderful dwelling. A combination of in-slab heating, ducted gas and a classic open fire in the lounge room provide all the comfort needed during the chilly months.

The farm features a 22.5m x 12m Machinery shed with 3 phase power. Adjoining are the cattle yards, substantial vegetable garden and Berry orchard. There are 9 electrified and watered paddocks and excellent cattle yards. Rich soils with superb grazing pastures and some paddock space sown to provide hundreds of lucerne hay and silage bales per annum. Little Minnows is virtually drought proof with Riparian water rights to the river, 247,500 litres of interconnected tank storage, one dam and an average annual rainfall of around 900mm.

There are good stands of natural timber and scattered rocky outcrops. On the southwest side, a gorge meanders down to the river for which the vendors have created a beautiful wildlife corridor. Planting native trees, building weirs to slow water flow, creating pond eco-systems and installing protective fencing have allowed this little haven to thrive.

The tranquility and privacy of Little Minnows is something to behold and cherish. This is one of those very special holdings. 5 minutes to Bowral, 1.5 hours to Sydney and the feeling of being a million miles away. Did I mention the views …. Wow!
