Barwon Downs VIC 3243

A rural retreat. A haven from the busy world. Whatever your motivation is, it's hard to imagine a more picturesque, serene, and alluring environment. Spread over 37.1 hectares (91.67 acres) of undulating land, the original '50s home sits at the top of the hill, surveying its domain of pastures, a winding river beyond, and calming rural views. Wake up to the moo of the cows, bleat of the sheep, or simply revel in the fact there is no noise at all. The home does need work, but perhaps provides an excellent blank canvas to create something special. Alternatively, you could start again in a location that maximises the brilliant views and northerly aspect.This property historically was a fully operational dairy but would no longer be viable. It does have a water lease allowing 11 megalitres to be pumped from the river per annum, and a substantial dam to accommodate this crucial asset. If you're looking for income, then we anticipate 5060 head of cattle could be run on the land perhaps more appropriately beef, rather than its original use. Located in the rain belt of the Otways and only 17 km to quaint Birregura, it is literally around the corner to Forrest (8 km), also a thriving country town with its brewery and specialty shops.35km more and you're in the heart of Lorne, regarded as Victoria's premier beach resort location. Come and discover how amazing this property is, and perhaps more importantly, how it makes you feel.
