An idyllic country lifestyle merges spectacularly with relaxed coastal living with this exceptional property nestled on five (approx.) fertile acres on the northern Bellarine. Thoughtfully designed and lovingly curated, the property is gifted with lush native gardens, a breathtaking outlook, a spacious garage with an adjoining studio and a picturesque home brimming with character.

Prepare to be charmed immediately upon entry to the home where a rich palette of exposed timber, textured brick walls and terracotta floors alongside pitched ceilings evoke a warm and cosy feel. The heart of living lies on the ground floor, where you can drink in views of the garden while curling up with a good book by the stunning carousel wood heater perfect for the cooler months. The adjoining undercover entertaining area acts as an extension of the home, boasting cafe blinds and a wood fire, it is the perfect place for year-round entertaining. Recently updated, the stylish kitchen centres around a spacious island and features beautiful stone benchtops, dual ovens and handy access to the veggie garden to ensure cooking with your homegrown produce is a breeze.

Venture upstairs to reveal a second living area, retreat space and generous master bedroom with ensuite, expansive cabinetry and access to the north-facing balcony. It’s here that you can take in the exquisite country landscape with glimpses of the bay between the towering eucalypts, all the while serenaded by the sound of local birdsong. The remaining two downstairs bedrooms enjoy garden outlooks and built-in robes while a large and character-filled bathroom services the ground floor.

Green thumbs will be thrilled to discover the impressive grounds of the property, with drought-resistant native gardens alongside wicking beds for veggies and an established orchard of pears, apples, plums, chestnuts, almonds, nectarines, olives and figs providing a bountiful harvest. The stunning pergola is the perfect place to take in the breathtaking sunsets and over 2000 recently planted native trees ensure that the garden continues to delight long into the future. A spacious garage and workshop offer plenty of room for storage and tinkering, while the adjoining studio with bathroom acts as private guest accommodation or a lucrative accommodation opportunity. Situated just moments from the conveniences of Drysdale and the renowned beaches and wineries of the Bellarine, this is a magnificent opportunity to live the good life. Make it yours today.
