THE DEAL
Perched on a picturesque hilltop in the postcard-worthy Yarra Valley, Duckn Hill Farm is the ultimate tree-change opportunity with its luxe features, spectacular scenery, thriving bed-and-breakfast, and placement under an hour from the CBD.
With extensive effort and expense put into every aspect of the 22-acre estate, its maintenance is minimal to mean its the ideal hobby-farm and weekend retreat, while a track record of outstanding short-stay returns gives the enticing option to run the high-earning B&B as a main occupation and embrace the Yarra Valley lifestyle at the same time. The focal building and primary residence of what was once an artists colony, Tarantaal is a four-bedroom, two-living-area abode where northern and southern wings are parted by a central breezeway, wonderful for entertaining in a revamped kitchen, nights by the fire, and taking in remarkable sunsets over rolling hills and the city skyline.
Distinct from one-another to let guests have their own space, accommodation in newly built The Loft and fully renovated The Barn and The Cottage generate three incomes simultaneously, all designed to be a cosy getaway where guests can savour the country experience before heading back to the bustle.
Equipped to be a fully functioning farm while holding winery potential should the vision be actualised (STCA), the propertys professionally landscaped gardens, top-of-the-range fencing, water systems, paddock, and pasture are perfect counterparts to a 2022-built machinery shed with an insulated office for the corporate professional to work productively in peace. 32kW in solar panels and a 64kW battery array mean the retreat can be almost-entirely off-grid come summertime, while fast EV charging heightens accommodation appeal immensely.
Both an open-air sanctuary and base for exploring the Valley vibrancy, its no more than a short, scenic drive to local icons in Yarra Valley Chocolaterie and Dairy, Healesville Sanctuary, Coldstream Brewery, Four Pillars Gin Distillery, and a selection of famous wineries and restaurants, along with the nearby Hurstbridge township for trains to the city centre.
SEALS THE DEAL
Alongside the rich lifestyle appeal of the invigorating Yarra Valley, several incomes can be assumed from the outset, with an established, highly lucrative B&B operable with minimal effort or experience.
