Yuulong was open to the public in 1985 and was asked to hold the National Collection of Lavenders for the Royal Botanic Gardens in Melbourne. Currently there are about about 100 different varieties with two special lavenders, the Lavandula x intermedia which was named 'Yuulong' after the property by the Gardens in 1987, and the Lavandula angustifolia 'Egerton Blue' which took ten years to develop and has been named after the local township of Mt Egerton. The owners, who developed this wonderful property, have decided that it is now time to sit back and relax and take time off to travel, write and pursue other interests. For this reason, they have not been working the farm to its full potential for at least four years. A lot of hard work has gone into this property to achieve the results that we can enjoy today. The first varieties of Lavender had to be brought in from Holland to begin the collection.in 1981 This is an artistic creation that goes beyond the business structure. The sale is also on a walk in / walk out basis- everything is available for the purchaser except for the verdors' personal possessions. It is a wonderful opportunity to buy an exceptional property. An opportunity that cannot be repeated! There are 4 dams in the property, three on one title and one on the second. There is also land available for stock grazing, 6 water tanks and an automated irrigation system. The house and tearooms sit high on the hill with lovely garden aspects from the large windows. The property lends itself to many other uses, such as Farm Stay for overseas visitors and students, a Bed and Breakfast, Art Studio, and the list goes on. The owners have in the past organized weddings and other events such as an annual Music Festival. The whole production of lavender is pre-sold every year. Price has been drastically reduced to 999,000 and open to negotiation. This is a unique plantation, and you will be accessing 30 years of business accumen.
