Wooranook is a 22-acre former bed and breakfast establishment located on the outskirts of Tamworth in the city’s rural dress circle.

The property is situated on the banks of the renowned Goonoo Goonoo Creek, 12km from the landmark Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre on the southern approach to the city.

Wooranook is also just 2km off the New England Highway (Sydney-Brisbane), accessed via a sealed drive which continues to the double undercover parking bay adjacent to the homestead.

The four-bedroom cement-rendered structure includes two bathrooms, living room, separate formal lounge and dining rooms with vaulted ceilings, chef’s kitchen, laundry and extra large walk-through pantry. A two metre verandah wraps around the entire home.

The attractive and roomy lounge room, which overlooks the pool, along with the kitchen, pantry, formal dining, formal lounge and hallway have all recently been professionally painted .

Heating is via a centrally located Jindara fan-forced wood heater and large brick fireplace in the formal lounge area at the western end of the home. There is also underfloor heating in the main lounge and wall-mounted Panasonic reverse cycle heater that is used for cooling during the summer.

The main bedroom and ensuite has a walk-in robe and the three other rooms all have built-ins. They all have individual locks and three have television antenna cabling.

The kitchen includes an Ilve gas\electric stove with gas cooktop and dishwasher. The tiled floor continues into the lounge and hallway with only the four bedrooms carpeted. The formal areas are finished with stained timber panelling.

Outside, beautiful, easy-care landscaped gardens complement sweeping, manicured lawns and inground saltwater plunge pool. There is also a paved barbecue area, shaded by the many shrubs and trees that are a part of the landscaped gardens.

There is a separate garden shed nearby and hothouse for raising seedlings next to the vegie patch.

Separate watering systems are in place in both the front and back gardens and the small orchard (20) of peach, plum, apple, pear, apricot, cherry, orange, mandarin and olive trees.

Water is also in place should you need to water the 300 plus wine grape vines in the front paddock. All water for domestic household and garden use is via a pump (new) on the creek utilising riparian rights attached to the almost 1km of frontage to the creek.

Toilets are connected to the creek system to save on domestic rainwater or switched to tank water in the event of flood or ‘fresh’ runs in the creek. There are three 20,000 litre rainwater tanks.

The holding comes with a 19 megalitre irrigation licence that is set up with a simple electric pump station and pod irrigation system.

Oats are sown in the ‘Pump’ paddock (6acres) each year and pasture has only recently been sown in the ‘Creek’ paddock (3 acres) and includes two varieties of clover, lucerne, rye and paspalum. The remaining paddocks contain naturally occurring native grasses. The ‘Top’ paddock (1acre) has been sown to clover and rye.

Fencing has mostly been renewed in the past two years with a combination of both ringlock and barbed wire on the higher portions complementing an electric fence system on the alluvial flats.

The property typically and conservatively fattens about 20 steers a year to 500kg and carries three horses.

There is a 3000 bale Colourbond hay shed which doubles as a machinery shed and 3-bay workshop/machinery shed with power and concrete floor in one bay. A steel set of cattle yards with crush and race (to work about 20 head) is situated in between.

The drive to the city takes 12 minutes and is a straight run to the equine centre, entertainment centre, regional sporting fields and ball sports complex.

The owners believe the property would be most suitable for a retired farmer who wants to keep his\her hand in, an executive couple who wants an up-market country lifestyle with city convenience, or a family that desires a country lifestyle but still needs to be able to make two or three trips a day to town for sport and other activities without the burden of distance.

The addition of a round yard and stable would make it the perfect location for people with equine interests..
