Last Listing description (August 2020)

Nestled in a quiet rural setting and only 15 minutes from the Longwarry town centre, this delightful dual occupancy property can lead to any pursuit that your heart desires. Perfect as a base for adventure or a tree-change for serenity and peaceful enjoyment. Yet, it is just over an hour commute to the Melbourne CBD via the M1 freeway.

Ideally positioned on the property and cleared from the woodlands, not 1, but 2 modern spacious dwellings are specifically designed to take maximum advantage of the spectacular views. Imagine, awakening to a panoramic scene of the valley before you, in the evening watch a glorious sunset fade behind the Great Dividing Range. Throughout the day enjoy distant sounds of cackling kookaburras and warbling magpies and do expect an occasional visit from neighbouring wallabies, wombats and lorikeets. It is truly one of a kind.


Situated on the 1 Title on just over 4 acres of cleared pastoral land, both homes enjoy the privacy of their own setting with separate driveway entrances, fenced paddocks for horses, goats and chickens with ample space for the kids to roam and explore. Bordering the Bunyip State Park, the riding/walking trails literally start at your front gate. Just saddle up or don the hiking boots and head out for a picnic, ride or trek the 7.5km to Lawson Falls or explore the famous Labertouche caves.

Both Dwellings were built approximately 6 years ago by Green Design homes. They offer a similar spacious floorplan with modern neutral tones throughout and plenty of natural light. The land is fully fenced into approximately 4 x 1 acre paddocks.
