Set amid rolling bushland and protected by a Trust for Nature Covenant, this remarkable rural retreat offers privacy, scale and self-sufficiency just minutes from the heart of Bruthen.
Occupying 106 acres, of which approx. 20 acres for domestic use, the original Federation-style residence was fully renovated around 18 years ago and has been lovingly maintained, blending timeless character with modern comforts. Polished spotted gum hardwood floors, high ceilings and a wraparound return verandah create a warm, welcoming home that sits effortlessly within its natural surroundings.
The open-plan layout brings together the kitchen, dining and lounge, anchored by a cosy wood combustion heater and supported by two split systems (main bedroom and living area) for year-round comfort. The all-electric kitchen features stone benchtops, a walk-in pantry, dishwasher and generous storage, ideal for everyday living or entertaining.
Accommodation includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying tranquil outlooks and its own climate control. The home is fully insulated, ensuring energy efficiency and comfort in all seasons.
Outside, the infrastructure is exceptional. A substantial five-bay shed (four vehicle bays plus workshop), a separate single-bay caravan shed, and two shipping containers provide extensive storage and functionality. Security cameras, Starlink internet, and a backup generator offer peace of mind and modern connectivity in a truly rural setting.
Water is supplied via tank water only, with all external taps serviced by dams, while wastewater is handled by a septic system — supporting a sustainable, off-grid lifestyle. The Trust for Nature Covenant ensures the long-term protection of the land’s natural values while still allowing residential enjoyment.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial holding offering privacy, conservation, and lifestyle freedom, without sacrificing comfort or accessibility.
