Last Listing description (October 2026)
Set amongst the rolling landscape of Barwon Downs, 'Blackwood' is a property that captures the very best of Otway living. Surrounded by two acres of established gardens and woodland across two titles, this beautifully considered four bedroom home offers space, privacy and an enviable connection to its natural surrounds.
Originally built in the early 1900s, the home has been thoughtfully updated to create a relaxed and highly liveable country residence, while retaining the character that makes it so distinctive. High ceilings, timber panelling, blackwood floors and open fireplaces sit comfortably alongside modern appointments and quality finishes.
To the rear of the home is an expansive open plan kitchen, living and dining space, designed for long lunches, entertaining and everyday family life. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with stone benchtops, a Rayburn combustion range and Falcon gas and electric cooking, while a broad undercover deck extends the living outdoors, overlooking the gardens and woodland beyond.
Four generous bedrooms include a main suite with ensuite and walk-in robe, complemented by a stylish family bathroom with bath, separate shower and heated flooring. A formal dining room, separate lounge with wood heating and dedicated home office provide further spaces to retreat, work or entertain.
A standout addition is the recently renovated studio and art space, a versatile retreat that can be tailored to suit your lifestyle. Whether it becomes a dedicated creative space, home gym, workshop, additional storage or somewhere to pursue hobbies away from the main residence, its flexibility adds another dimension to this already exceptional property.
Outside, the property is every bit as captivating. Established ornamental gardens, fruit trees, mature oaks and a truffle-infused woodland create a private rural sanctuary, with abundant birdlife and quiet corners to explore. A vine-covered pergola provides the perfect setting for summer dining, while the additional outbuildings offer further scope for storage and practical use.
This is a lifestyle defined by nature, space and proximity to some of the Otways' best-known destinations. Forrest, with its brewery, cafes and renowned mountain bike trails, is just 10 minutes away, while Birregurra and Brae are around 15 minutes from home. Lorne and the Great Ocean Road are within easy reach, with Geelong and Melbourne also comfortably accessible.
For those seeking a home with genuine character, an exceptional garden and the freedom to embrace a slower pace, 'Blackwood' offers a rare opportunity to make the Otways your everyday.
