Secluded, Scenic & Simply Stunning

Elevated above the surrounding countryside, this unique 1 Ha (more or less) bare land lifestyle block offers a rare opportunity to create your own private retreat immersed in nature.

Positioned to capture expansive rural vistas, the site enjoys a wonderful sense of elevation and outlook across rolling hills and established farmland. The gentle rise of the land not only enhances the views but also creates a natural feeling of privacy, with the building platform set apart from the road and neighbouring properties.

Surrounded by mature trees and established greenery, the setting feels peaceful and sheltered. Birdlife is abundant, and the landscape provides an ever-changing backdrop through the seasons. Whether you are envisioning a contemporary country home, a cosy retreat, or a thoughtfully designed off-grid escape, this property offers the perfect canvas.

Practicality is already in place with a substantial triple bay pole shed, ideal for storing equipment, vehicles or creating a workshop space while you plan and build. The existing infrastructure adds immediate functionality and flexibility for future development.

Sensible covenants protect the integrity of the area while still allowing you the freedom to design and build a home that reflects your vision. This thoughtful balance ensures your investment is safeguarded, and the surrounding environment will remain in keeping with the natural character of the location.

Just a scenic drive from the city, this is the perfect option for those seeking space, privacy and the opportunity to embrace a more relaxed lifestyle without sacrificing accessibility. Build your dream home, establish gardens, add further planting, or simply secure the land as a future lifestyle investment.

Opportunities like this are increasingly rare – an elevated, private and beautifully positioned 1 Ha block ready for you to bring your vision to life. Boundary lines indicative only.
