MILAWA's RAPELO - IDEAL LIFESTYLE PROPERTY WITH QUALITY FAMILY HOME ON SMALL ACREAGE WITH EMERGING RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION OPPORTUNITY
Milawa in Victoria's north east with its diversity of attractions from notable wineries like Brown Brothers, the local gourmet Milawa Cheese Factory, cafes and accommodation have established it as a busy and active tourist and lifestyle community.
The easy access to key district destinations like Beechworth, Wangaratta and other key centres along the Hume Highway add to its attraction.
The property known as Rapelo at 27 Milawa to Bobinawarrah Road is only minutes distant from the centre of the Milawa township and just off the Snow Road that leads to the north east's alpine resorts.
Rapelo, which draws its name from the first initial of all the vendors' family members is for private sale through Elders Real Estate in Wangaratta and offers a desirable lifestyle with numerous options.
The vendor who has worked locally at the Wangaratta Hospital for the last twenty years after moving to Milawa from the Mornington Peninsula says it is time for her to move back south to be closer to her family.
Elders selling agent Michael Everard says that Rapelo is just about the ideal lifestyle property centrally located in one of the best destinations of the north east.
First, the property has an attractive, level and easily managed land area of 1.95 hectares (equal to 4.81 acres) and there are two long sealed road frontages including several hundred metres at the front road and similar to the Oxley Flats Road at the rear.
There is an extremely well presented double brick homestead with an area under roof of twenty six squares.
It offers three bedrooms all with built in robes, while an original was converted by the vendor to her study and could be easily returned to make this a four bedroom family home.
Michael says "the vendor admits to an interest in restorations having done several other projects in the local district over the years, so Rapelo being her base, has an outstanding presentation with quality fixtures and fittings and copious living and service areas.
All the major rooms open on to the veranda and capture the outstanding garden environment as the home is central to an expansive and delightful garden of bulbs, lawns, with many well established trees that are all currently showing off their autumn foliage.
Water for the home and the garden irrigation system is another feature with an established bore that supplies unlimited water of drinking quality and is supported by a rainwater tank storage as well.
On the property is a steel framed and clad utility building that includes a multiple vehicle car port, a workshop and tack room and a stable block, as the vendor keeps a quarter horse on the pastured paddock area.
She enjoys trail riding around the local district including the nearby Murray to the Mountains Trail.
An important consideration for the purchaser is that the periphery of the Milawa township area is currently under a Low Density and Rural Residential Rezoning Proposal being formalised by the Rural City of Wangaratta to allow subdivision into new residential blocks while protecting the feature tourism assets of the township, (known as the Milawa Township Development Plan).
The rezoning is at an advanced stage meaning that this property, remember it is 4.81 acres with twin road frontages, will have the option of being able to be subdivided into residential lots if required in the foreseeable future.
Michael Everard says that this option adds to the value and appeal...
