This thoughtfully designed country home is positioned to take full advantage of the magnificent views and beautiful natural light of Victorias high country. The 35 acre property provides a very private, peaceful setting to relax with family and friends or take some time to enjoy your own company with the stunning array of birds attracted by extensive planting of native trees and plants.
Watch the sun rise over Mt Buller and set behind The Paps. During winter days the sun streams into the house and when the sun is high in summer the eaves shade the rooms to help keep the house cool. If you can take your eyes off the panoramic views through the floor to ceiling double glazed windows and doors you might notice the recycled tongue and groove hardwood flooring and huge family friendly kitchen. Perfect for entertaining family and friends or perhaps you might enjoy a barbecue out on the deck with those stunning views of Mt Buller and across Merrijig valley.
5 bedrooms provide ample accommodation for 2 legged friends and outside there are 7 paddocks for the 4 legged variety all with either dams or water troughs.

Over 1200 trees and 1800 shrubs, all locally indigenous, were planted between 2005 and 2012 and now provide shade and shelter for stock and native fauna.
