Northwood Farm, Seymour farm offering

Northwood Farm, a stud in the making given its location within Victoria’s thoroughbred horse breeding heartland, has been listed for sale.

Northwood Farm, which has been a cattle grazing property, has as its immediate neighbour Eliza Park Northwood, one of the breeding properties of the Eliza Park group owned by Hong Kong based Sun International. Just a short distance away is Darley Stud, which has recently undergone a major development by the Al Maktoum family, the ruling family of Dubai.

A little further north on the same side of Northwood Road are to be found the further acclaimed thoroughbred studs and breeding farms including Yarran and the major Swettenham Stud.

Its impressive stone and timber homestead was designed by French architect Claudine Dublier with granite stone sourced locally from Oak Valley in the nearby Strathbogie Ranges for the vendors Tony and Cathy Blazey who selected the land when it was just vacant farm land in 2000.

With direct frontage to the Goulburn River, the Northwood Farm at 60 Johnsons Lane has been listed for 28 June auction through agent Bart O'Sullivan at Pat Rice & Hawkins with expectations around $2 million.
