Hambledon Park, the North Richmond farm, has been sold for $60 million. The 253ha property, 70km north of Sydney, has been bought by Fairway Thoroughbreds businessman John Camilleri, the breeder of Winx.
His acquisition wasn’t equine driven nor for Camilleri’s Baiada Poultry enterprise, which controls the Steggles and Lilydale brands.
Instead it is a long-term residential subdivision opp­ortunity. There is approval for a small rural subdivision of 25 lots, which dates back to 2008. 
But the demand for smaller housing lots in the Hawkesbury municipality has rocketed over the subsequent dozen years.
“Hambledon Park will one day be a new suburb of Sydney,” Cushman &amp; Wakefield selling agent Anthony Bray said.
Any eventual residential development market will follow the nearby successful housing estates including The Ponds, Elara, and The Hills Carmel.
Hambledon Park, the North Richmond dairy farm, initially hit the market with expectations of $120 million to $140 million, but the lack of developer interest saw the price expectations dampened.
The Camilleri family’s Celestino Developments recently sold Stockland, the unbuilt two-thirds of its 293ha masterplanned site, The Gables at Box Hill with the listed developer paying $415 million over seven years.
Bray had expected to see stronger interest from developers, the tertiary education and agricultural industries for Hambledon Park, but the absence of Chinese buyers from the buying mix meant it sold for under its $120 million expectations of two years ago.
The property was a 1200-cow dairy farm at its peak after being purchased in 1974 by the Peel family who were a major dairy supplier into Sydney.
More recently it has been a feed lot, along with operating a breeding herd of about 300 black angus cows.

“The house was built from scratch and we made a list of what we felt were our priorities for a house because we never agree on anything but when we exchanged lists they were almost identical,” Ms McCauley said.

Old Toonallook, a farm and family lifestyle holding located only twelve kilometres south of the Hume Freeway at 1233 Wymah Road Bowna, has been sold by Rodwells Ruralco property agent Dave Colvin.
The sale price was undisclosed, but believed to be within the pre-sale estimation in the mid two million dollar range.
“The purchasers are an Albury based professional couple who plan to reside on the property with the convenience of a thirty minute commute into town,” Mr Colvin said.
“This results shows that even in uncertain times with impediments to a traditional property sale process there are buyers prepared to act on the offer of a quality property”
The Old Toonallock property dates back to about 1870 when the property acted as a Cobb &amp; Co stabling point.
It has a substantial and well restored 50 plus square homestead and a land area of 104 hectares (or 257 acres).
The vendor had a personal plan to offer the property for sale by a conventional public auction process but this was upset by the COVID-19 situation developing.
“We elected in conjunction to press on with her personal plan and in consequence Rodwells Ruralco Property offered Old Toonallook by a private sale process with an auction if necessary, to be held with phone bidding by registered bidders only on Friday 8 May at 2pm.
“Private inspections of the property were by appointment only with appropriate personal safety practices employed over the month long marketing campaign” Mr Colvin adds.
Itself once the centre of a major district pastoral station Old Toonallook now comprises a single title freehold farm title at 1233 Wymah Road that gives bitumen road access running north south from the Hume Freeway from where it is a double lane freeway access into Albury Wodonga.
The centrepiece feature is the 50 square metre Old Toonallook homestead that includes a part of the original weatherboard structure from the 1870s.
It was built in 1925, and offers four bedrooms, two with their own en suites, copious high-ceilinged room sizes, expansive living spaces, a true farm kitchen, long passage ways for access, multiple chimneys for wood heating, even a large underground wine cellar with a trapdoor entry.
The homestead is adjoined by a separate one-bedroom accommodation building with kitchen and services
There is also the original farm slaughterhouse and cool room.
The homestead is set in an established lawned and garden area with specimen trees including several substantial peppercorn trees, with a school bus pickup available at the front gate.
While affording comfortable family living plenty of scope remains for the purchaser to value add further, or to bring their own design statements or style to this gracious homestead.

Andrew Miller, from Rodwells Rural Property, has listed the sale on behalf of vendors who have held the property for the last 17 years, who are now ready for retirement and to embark on a travel agenda.
Miller is quoting a private sale expectation well over $1 million.
Wahroonga was originally owned by the Greiner family who, having acquired it in 1870, held it as their family home for five generations.
In its early days the estate commanded over 3000 acres where the Greiners ran multiple farming enterprises and even their own vineyard.
There was an interim ownership after the property was reduced in scale and that owner significantly revived the homestead before it was purchased by the current owners who have further enhanced its presentation during their 17 year ownership.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2019/10/10/homstead%203.jpeg" alt="">
The Wahroonga homestead was built in 1924, having been designed by local architect A J Inches.
The original foundation stone, recording it was laid by J M Greiner on 2nd March 1924 and recognising A J Inches as the architect, is still embedded in a wall home.
