A short drive east of Melbourne sits "Irelough South", a wonderful 21.85* hectare / 54* acre property that combines tranquil country lifestyle living with small scale productive farming.
Situated approximately 72km* from Melbourne's CBD in the highly sought-after "Gateway to Gippsland" Southern Highlands region, the meticulously presented Irelough South property features a renovated 4* bedroom homestead with an elevated view to the east across lush fertile pastures. The property offers all the benefits of a working farm while remaining connected to urban convenience.
