Adding further flexibility, a double-storey steel-framed shed has been converted into a comfortable studio — ideal for guests, a home office or creative pursuits. A large shed/workshop with lock-up store, three securely fenced paddocks, bore water, dam and rainwater tanks provide practicality for hobby farming or lifestyle use. Perfect as a permanent home or a weekend escape, this property combines absolute privacy, modern comforts and an abundance of natural assets in one of central Victoria’s most sought-after locations.
