Take in the views to the North, across the rolling green paddocks to the township of Leongatha. The convenience of being less than five minutes' drive from town and yet surrounded by farmland can be found right here on 2.5 acres (approx.)
It is in the garden where the joys of feeding one's soul begin. Over 50 fruit and nut trees and a varied variety of berries all young and vibrant, from hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts, pears, peaches an array of stone fruit and citrus with apples galore.
The chickens find great delight as they forage and till the earth rotating between sections of the garden alongside the thriving vegetable garden. Out in the paddock at present grazing sheep, is also ideal for a couple of cows, or horses.
The modest weatherboard home has a lovely north/east facing dining room with views across the paddocks to town. The kitchen has gas/electric cooking, an original fireplace that would easily convert back for a wood stove and central bench. The family lounge is kept warm and cool with a wood heater and a RC/AC. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a small study there is room for the family with scope to renovate and expand should you desire.
Externally you have a 14 x 9m farm shed with space inside for all your tools and toys, including a special studio/creative office, something that is best seen to be truly appreciated. Additionally, there is a work in progress build, chicken, or pet shelter out in the paddock.
Country living at its best, this property offers scope for the next custodian to put their stamp on it. School bus at the front gate, Great Southern Rail Trail an easy push bike ride up the road and under 5 minutes drive to town for sporting, shopping and socialising.
