Impressively positioned across 18 acres, this grand entertainer enjoys the best of Bellarine Peninsula acreage with the rarity of expansive water views. Offering grandness on every scale, the solidly built brick home commands a fabulous position and is beautifully set amongst a full perimeter of mature trees, offering complete privacy in a prime location.
The property currently sits within a Farming Zone and offers exceptional growth potential given the nearby Residential Zone growth of the Portarlington township.
The property welcomes you with a grand foyer entry, perfectly encapsulating the size of the home and immediately invites you to enjoy the easterly water views towards Mt Eliza & Mornington in the distance.
Set-up perfectly for a large family or for multiple families seeking a coastal acreage "weekender", this home is perfect for celebratory occasions with so much space both indoors and out! Featuring 5 large bedrooms (WIR to master, BIR's to all others), 5 bathrooms (ensuites to all bedrooms), a lounge/formal dining room, meals space with adjoining living space off the kitchen, a sun lounge with water views and a family kitchen with extensive bench space, a separate walk-in-pantry room with extensive storage, 2 fridge spaces, dishwasher & two ovens (one gas, one electric).
The property is big on self-sustainability with a large multi-purpose cellar room underneath the house, perfect for wine storage, meat curing/smoking and olive brining etc.
Other added extras include gas ducted heating and cooling which ensures all year round comfort, ducted vacuum, security system, town water, approx. 80,000 ltrs of tank water and a large double auto garage with internal access into the house.
Externally the property offers the astute purchaser a multitude of mixed farming opportunities whether it be equine pursuits, cattle, sheep, hay and/or food production. Offering an idyllic and picturesque setting, a large vegetable and fruit orchard has been lovingly cultivated by the vendors over many years providing an array of self-sustaining opportunities.
There are 4 large main paddocks plus 3 supplementary paddocks, an exceptional 24.2m x 9.0m machinery shed with adjoining 9.0m x 9.0m workshop garage, 3 bay hay shed, undercover loading yards and a farm shed on the eastern boundary perfect for lambing, calving, foaling or chickens.
This property ticks many boxes as both a lifestyle and investment opportunity, with its three road frontages creating potential future redevelopment opportunity (STCA) given its location and the growth of the Portarlington community and residential area.
This incredible and exceptionally well-maintained property is a must to see to appreciate all that is on offer. A lifestyle property in the heart of the Bellarine Peninsula and just a short drive from all the amenities, shops, cafes and Docklands ferry terminal, all in the beautiful coastal township of Portarlington.
