Last Listing description (April 2024)

A truly incredible farm property in Apollo Bay set on 152 acres of land with stunning views of the rolling Otway Hills, farm paddocks, and the ocean, it offers a picturesque and serene setting. Located only minutes from the beach, this truly is where the hills meet the ocean! The property includes a newly renovated traditional farmhouse characterised by its rustic, vintage and authentic charm. This residence features three large bedrooms, two bathrooms, open-plan living spaces, and a wraparound deck providing a comfortable and inviting living space for residents and guests.

The two living spaces in the house, one centered around a fireplace and the other an open plan dining, lounge, and kitchen area with DeLonghi gas cooktop, Fisher & Paykel electric oven, Bosch dishwasher, and a generous pantry, offer both coziness and functionality. The large sliding door windows in both living spaces provide amazing views of the farm and the Apollo Bay harbor and ocean beyond.

The sunroom/mud room with laundry facilities and a separate toilet is a thoughtful addition, making it convenient for residents to clean up after being in the paddocks or returning from the beach. The main hallway leads to the three large bedrooms, all with ceiling fans and breathtaking views from every window. The main family bedroom's bath with incredible sea and farm views must be a true delight.

The presence of three large working sheds is a valuable addition, as it allows for ample storage and space for various farm-related activities and equipment. The well-maintained and tidy farm is sure to provide an ideal environment for agricultural pursuits or simply enjoying the natural beauty of the surroundings. The farm also has access to a freshwater spring to ensure there is a steady flow of water for farming purposes all year round. Currently, a local farmer is agisting their livestock on the farm paddocks and maintaining the paddocks and fences.

Furthermore, the property's proximity to Apollo Bay beach and town is undoubtedly advantageous, providing easy access to amenities, services, and recreational activities. It is a thriving and friendly community which benefits from the many positive effects of life on the coast. There are many restaurants to enjoy from fine dinning to fish and chips on the beach. Plenty of activities with weekly farmer markets and festivals such as the Seafood and Wild Wild festivals thought-out the year. The beaches provide world class surfing and is one of the few places that has a harbour on the Great Ocean Road with access to excellent fishing. The local Apollo Bay P-12 school is highly regarded and includes an Aquatic centre which the whole community can enjoy. The local community makes this property even more attractive option for those seeking a rural farm lifestyle without sacrificing access to essential facilities.

Overall, this property is an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to embrace a serene and picturesque farm lifestyle in a beautiful coastal region like Apollo Bay. The combination of rural living, breathtaking views, and convenient amenities makes it truly exceptional.
