LAWD, as appointed by the mortgagee in possession, is delighted to bring to market Goona Warra Vineyard and Estate – an historically significant and culturally important landmark site on the fringes of Melbourne.
The winery and adjacent homestead are 150 years old and just one* hour on the train from Melbourne’s CBD and 15* minutes from Tullamarine Airport. The estate’s imperious old bluestone hall, surrounded by towering gum trees, sits in a natural amphitheatre in the foothills of the Macedon Ranges. It has been the venue of choice for weddings and functions for many a year.
The grandeur of the hall cannot be overstated – a building of rare beauty and scale that is impossible to replicate or replace. The original homestead is a sprawling dual level abode which can easily be restored to its former glory or converted into a premium accommodation offering. In keeping with the grand hall, its heritage features speak of a bygone era and, while there’s work to be done, there’s an incredible canvas on which to work.
Just 20* kilometres from the ocean, the estate’s 5.27ha* vineyard sits on black basalt clay which is home to established Chardonnay, Semillon, Pinot Noir, Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet Franc vines. The unique microclimate of Sunbury produces long living wines of elegance and finesse. The vineyard sits literally across the road from iconic Craiglee. There’s a healthy wine business waiting to be created here.
Being sold via an Expression of Interest campaign, the vendor is open to early offers.
