A mixed farming property in the Western District has sold, after it was recently listed for sale for more than $5.5 million.
The 117ha property, Chocolyn at Camperdown, sold this week.
Its asking price equated to $47,000 per ha or $19,000 an acre.
The property had been owned by Mark Grant and Steve Nagle since 2011
A buyer and exact price are yet to be disclosed.
The property features a neo-Gothic bluestone homestead and private 2km frontage to the Ramsar-listed Lake Colongulac.
The homestead includes eight bedrooms, three bathrooms, numerous living spaces including a grand dining room, sitting rooms with lake views and a library.
Last year, 160 Angus cows plus 40 replacement heifers were run on the property.
Originally an outstation of the Manifolds’ Purrumbete run, Chocolyn was purchased by William Adeney in 1843 who developed the land and built the first stage of the bluestone homestead around 1853.
“Over the years we’ve worked on structural improvements, attended to wiring, plumbing and roofing and further developed the interiors so that the design absolutely fits with contemporary living,” Mr Grant said at the time it was listed for sale.
The property was sold by Matt Childs from Pat Rice & Hawkins.
