Only minutes to the township of Metung, this peaceful and private country estate of 32.5 acres presents a unique opportunity to embrace an idyllic rural lifestyle and enjoy the natural beauty of farmland, surrounding countryside and the close-by Gippsland Lakes. Set back from Cattlemans Track, the country homestead has a glorious outlook over the property and to the mountains beyond. Incorporating some traditional features, the home has been added to over the years and now comprises spacious open plan living, dining & kitchen with high ceilings, efficient pellet-heater, reverse-cycle air-conditioning and character timber floorboards. The country kitchen has a decorative fireplace, whilst an open fireplace graces the study, which enjoys a fine view of the rural landscape. Verandahs wrap around the North side of the home, flooded with sunshine in winter, offering shade in summer and provide sheltered spots to sit and entertain year round. The huge master bedroom features built-in robe, ensuite and also benefits from the gorgeous northerly outlook. Three further bedrooms (two with built-in robes) are serviced by a family bathroom plus laundry with access to the rear courtyard garden. Outbuildings include a large shed with concrete floor, power & workshop, 2 roller doors allowing secure vehicle storage plus a storage room. Additional shedding includes 5 carport bays, rustic tack room and various old farm sheds/dairy. The property boasts an excellent water supply with mains water, tanks, a large dam and water troughs for stock. Fenced into six paddocks, the front paddock includes a round yard providing a controlled safe training area. Another unique feature of the property is a Roman Fort which has been used for medieval re-enactments in the past, but could be converted to horse or stockyards if required. Rarely do properties like this come on the market in Metung. Whether you are looking for an equine or hobby farm, or simply a lifestyle property to enjoy the space and picturesque surrounds, this could be the perfect opportunity for you to embrace a rural lifestyle whilst enjoying the convenience of Metung Village plus nearby Lakes Entrance and Bairnsdale.
