'Gibraltar' - A landscape like no other
Deadline Sale 1pm Tue 8 Dec 2026 (unless sold prior)
125 hectares of history, beauty and possibility
Unfolding across an extraordinary landscape of sheltered flats, rolling pasture and more dramatic hill country, the property has a sense of character and permanence that is increasingly difficult to find.
Hundreds of mature oak trees are scattered throughout the property, creating magnificent established canopies and changing the character of the landscape with the seasons. Streams wind through the land, while impressive natural rock formations emerge from the hills, giving parts of the property an almost park-like quality.
Adding another layer is its history. An original stone wall, constructed more than a century ago when the farm was owned by Sir Heaton Rhodes, remains within the property today, a tangible connection to the land's past and one of the many details that make this holding so distinctive.
Today, the property is utilised for cattle grazing and has an irrigation consent, providing a productive element alongside its considerable recreational and lifestyle appeal. The land may also attract buyers interested in exploring future development opportunities (subject to council requirements and approvals).
But there is another side to this property.
Wild fallow deer roam the land, with pheasants and quail also making their home here. Combined with the streams, mature trees, rocky outcrops and contrasting terrain, it creates an environment that feels wonderfully removed from everyday life.
A modest existing dwelling, and a large lockable shed with four roller doors, provides an immediate base from which to enjoy the property. Live simply, improve what is already here, or take time to explore the land and identify the perfect position for something truly special.
And that may ultimately be the property's greatest attraction.
It offers the opportunity to create an exceptional private country estate, with the landscape already established around you.
The mature trees have taken generations to grow. A stone wall carries more than a century of history. The streams, rock formations and hills have been shaped over far longer.
The next chapter belongs to its new owner.
