Part of the history of Bathurst is indelibly woven into the features of this fine old Colonial Property. Alloway Bank is a magnificent and remarkably maintained example of the earliest days of the former Colony of New South Wales. The opportunity is seldom available to purchase a property of this calibre in such a superb and convenient location. Some of the buildings date from c1827. The original grant of 2,000 acres to Captain John Piper was in 1823, and then in the 1840s acquired from him by W.H. Suttor, prominent Bathurst Pastoralist and Politician. Alloway Bank's original owner, Captain John Piper, held 190 acres of land in the area now named after him at Point Piper, on Sydney's Harbour foreshores. Prominently located barely 7 minutes drive to Bathurst's now thriving CBD, the property sits atop a gentle rise, affording superb rural views, approached through emerald green lucerne fields. Along with its 27 acres is included a grand Colonial Homestead with saltwater pool and tennis court, a substantial block of 14 brick stables with tack room and carriage house, double garage, workshop and grooms s/c quarters (1 x 2 br & 1 x 1 br). Apart from being simply a magnificent private residence, flexible accommodation up to 6 bedrooms, 3.5 bathroom, estate-like proportions, Alloway Bank would appear to be pre-eminently suitable as a prized equestrian establishment, stud base, premier B&B/Function centre of training institute (subject to any necessary approvals). If you are seeking a combination of premium quality and potential, all within an historic holding dating back to the earliest days of the Colony we suggest "You can Bank on 'Alloway Bank' !"
