Located on the eastern side of the renowned Monaro Plains, Rockybah – currently owned by the Charles family – is to be submitted for sale via Meares Online Auction on May 16-17.
Previously known as Brechnoch, Rockybah comprises slightly more than 1375 hectares of rich basalt soil plateau country, featuring beautiful sheltered valleys and an abundance of water from Boco Creek, MacLaughlin River and Lake Pendrill.
Approximately 13km south-west of Nimmitabel and 50km south of Cooma and its airport, Rockybah is also only 110km from the beaches at Merimbula and its airport with daily air services to Sydney and Melbourne.
It is also only a two-hour drive to Australia's leading ski fields at Thredbo and Perisher.
The property is well equipped, including three stand woolshed, two sets of sheep yards, cattle yards, silo, workshop and machinery sheds.
Two income-producing wind turbines are also included in the sale.
The three-bedroom homestead (circa 1950s) is surrounded by a beautiful, well planned and mature garden.
Chris Meares for marketing agents Meares and Associates said Rockybah is not only a productive working farm, “but it also incorporates many lifestyle features” such as its proximity to Lake Pendrill, the South Coast and ski fields.
It is expected that Rockybah will sell for $2.75-3million in May’s online auction by marketing agents Meares and Associates, Sydney, and Fergusson Real Estate, Cooma.
