Last Listing description (December 2025)
"Droves Rest - 119 Acre River-Front Farm with a Charming Homestead"
Welcome to Droves Rest-a magnificent 93-acre holding on title with an additional 26 acres of Bass River lease, offering one of South Gippsland's finest stretches of river frontage.
This is heavy-carrying, rich and fertile river-flat country at its best, ideal for grazing and currently home to cows, calves and horses. The land is beautifully laid out across eleven well-fenced paddocks, each with its own water supply, supported by four dams-two spring-fed-as well as bore and dam water reticulated to troughs. Timber stockyards with a galvanised cattle crush make stock handling smooth and efficient.
The infrastructure is exceptional, with a superb array of shedding including a stable and calf-rearing shed, multiple storage sheds, a large 7.4m x 18.2m concreted shed and an impressive 7.3m x 21.7m machinery shed, ensuring ample room for equipment, vehicles and feed. Everything is designed for practicality, productivity and ease of management.
The family-sized homestead is warm, inviting and thoughtfully designed, wrapped in verandahs that frame tranquil rural views and lead seamlessly to the alfresco and BBQ area. Inside, polished timber floors flow through generous open-plan living and dining spaces centred around a cosy Coonara heater, with reverse-cycle air-conditioning ensuring comfort year-round. The kitchen sits adjacent to the dining area with a walk-in pantry, while four bedrooms accommodate family and guests with ease. The main bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and walk-in robe, while the remaining bedrooms are well positioned around the family bathroom and laundry. A double carport adjoins the home with convenient access to the nearby store.
Droves Rest is a beautifully balanced lifestyle and agricultural property, offering productivity, tranquility and room to grow with approved plans and drawings for an extension.
Situated in a tightly held and picturesque pocket of Almurta, this property is just a short 7 minute drive from shops, 11 minutes from swimming beaches and 9 minutes from schools. It delivers the perfect blend of country living and farming capability on an expansive and scenic stretch of the Bass River.
