Encircled by celebrated vineyards in the heart of the Mornington Peninsula's wine country, this 40-acre property (approx) would lend itself superbly to any number of agricultural or horticultural pursuits, from grape-growing to cattle-rearing. Capturing breathtaking views across undulating pastures spilling down to the valley of Splitters Creek, the elevation of the land offers a majestic home site for a brand new residence (STCA) with views to Bass Strait.
Currently site to a 4-bedroom 1920s abode of historical significance, the residence is steeped in history as the original farmhouse of 180 Main Creek Road. In need of TLC, the home could certainly be renovated to provide comfortable lodgings for a groundskeeper, tenant or extended family.
Surrounding the existing residence, the infrastructure comprises 2 haysheds, 3 machinery sheds, a workshop and 130k litres of tank water with pumps. The land is traversed by Splitters Creek and partly within a Mornington Peninsula Landcare native corridor and also supplies 15 natural springs and a large dam.
Offering the perfect conditions for a vineyard, the terrain boasts a rich volcanic soil structure with white clay underneath. Coupled with the maritime climate dictating cooler temperatures conducive to grape cultivation, generous rainfall and winds that help prevent frost, the locale is well renowned for the chardonnay and pinot noir varieties, which thrive in the area.
Just over an hour from Melbourne via the Mornington Peninsula Freeway, the location is a short drive to surf breaks, hot springs, golf courses and equestrian trails. Showcasing the most alluring opportunity to secure a large landholding in exclusive Arthurs Seat, the property is a short zip to Red Hill Consolidated School, Red Hill village, Arthurs Seat summit, bay beaches and the major shopping of Dromana.
