Easthaven is a distinguished country homestead set across 27.31 hectares of productive, irrigated land in the heart of the Teviot Valley. Offering scale, privacy, and genuine scope, this is a property that delivers both immediate lifestyle appeal and long-term opportunity.
Positioned to capture the sun, this substantial residence enjoys a prized north-facing aspect, overlooking a spring-fed pond alive with birdlife, fertile river flats, and the dramatic backdrop of The Nobbies, renowned for their rugged terrain and scenic river corridors.
The home offers five bedrooms. The master bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and private ensuite, while a second bedroom is also ensuited, ideal for guests or extended family. The remaining three bedrooms are well supported by a central family bathroom, creating a practical and well-balanced layout.
A separate laundry, toilet, and a two-person office add everyday practicality, Year-round comfort is assured with a wood burner, diesel radiators throughout, and double-glazed joinery.
The grounds surrounding the home are beautifully established and carefully maintained, with manicured lawns, mature gardens, productive vegetable beds, and an abundance of fruit trees including quince, apples, pears, nectarines, peaches, and plums.
The 27.31 hectares of land is well configured and divided into five well-fenced paddocks, predominantly serviced by fixed-grid or K-line irrigation. Irrigation water is pumped from the spring-fed pond and supported by a substantial ORC water right of 65 litres per second (22,000 cubic metres per month), providing excellent water security. In recent years, the property has been utilised for barley cropping and finishing cattle and lambs.
Infrastructure is extensive and well suited to a property of this scale, including a five-bay shed, workshop, tractor shed, horse shed, sheep yards, and a one-stand outdoor shearing shed.
Beyond its current use, the property presents exciting future potential. Located just moments from the Clutha River and the popular Clutha Gold Cycle Trail, there is genuine scope to explore Bed & Breakfast or Farmstay opportunities, with discussion already around converting one of the character sheds into accommodation.
Adding further depth to the property, Easthaven is believed to have been built in 1885 and was once home to respected Roxburgh doctor Dr J.R. Gilmour. Thoughtfully refurbished over time, the homestead retains its original character while offering the comfort and functionality required for modern country living.
Whether your focus is farming, lifestyle living, or a strategic blend of both with tourism potential, Easthaven is a rare and remarkable offering - a peaceful, private oasis in the heart of the Teviot Valley and a truly special place to call home.
