Tucked away in a private location with the majestic Otway's in full view is this gorgeous country hideaway on a spacious 19 acre (approx.) rural lifestyle holding.
In an elevated position with beautiful views of the rolling hills and neighboring forest sits the main residence, a lovingly restored & renovated weatherboard cottage offering 2 bedrooms (plus a 3rd bedroom / loft), 1 bathroom, spacious lounge and an enviable rustic kitchen with a boutique 'Esse' 990 wood stove (with connected wet jacket to power the hot water unit plus solar support), plenty of bench & storage space plus gorgeous natural light throughout.
Rescued timber and stained glass windows complete the country feel along with the beautiful farm views and a relaxing porch perfect for an afternoon cuppa!
Externally the property offers a fantastic mix of bush and paddocks with a large garage, double carport, shed, productive greenhouse, chook run, veggie gardens & orchard.
A slow meandering walk down the hill takes you to a peaceful spot next to the creek with pristine ferns and flora taking centre stage, with soft filtered-light, forest sounds and clean fresh air completing the picture.
This property has too many added extras to list including solar power (3kw, battery powered, 12 batteries, 240 volt), plenty of tank water (3 x 22,500L / 1 x 5,000L / 1 x 2,000L), petrol pump off the main dam, a natural spring near the creek and a 'natures loo' composting toilet with a solar powered fan.
The property is conveniently located with easy access off the nearby Birregurra-Forrest Road, only 15 minutes to the popular local township of Forrest, 35 minutes to Lorne, 30 minutes to Colac, 20 minutes to Birregurra and the world-famous restaurant at "Brae" and an easy 1 hour drive to the Geelong CBD on the dual lane Princes Highway.
Off-grid, private and eco-friendly - this property is the perfect country getaway on the doorstep of the Otways!
