Future Land Development
Opportunity
The Mount Ophir Estate is commencing work on a themed village which
will offer ownership of a dwelling on the estate to folk who wish to live and
work on the property. The first owners will be able to have input into the
design work for their home.
Enquiries are welcome and all applications will be considered before final
offers for participation are made. It is intended that this be
accomplished by the end of 2000AD and building commences in 2001AD.
Future Vision
The owner's vision for the estate is for the development of a
community. Originally about 30 persons lived and worked on the estate in the wine
industry. Today there are many opportunities for the development of other businesses particularly in organic farm produce and tourism.
