16 Dwyer Lane, Eganstown VIC 3461

This remarkable land offering boasts exceptional views, and a current planning permit in place for the construction of a dwelling. Totalling approximately 9.75 acres of land, and an additional leasehold/agricultural license of approximately 9 acres. Currently, you will discover a large shed on the property, which requires an inspection to fully appreciate.
The property has two dams, borders Brandy Hot Creek, has a natural spring that flows all year round and several seasonal creeks. The Leasehold is mostly bushland (wet schlerophyl woodland) with the dominant tree being Narrow Leaved Peppermint (Eucalypt) with some very tall emergent Manna Gum and Mountain Gum further down the gully. The property abounds in Native Wildlife including a pair of mighty Wedge Tail Eagles that are often seen circling above. The soil is a very deep Basalt loam which will literally grow anything. Because the slope of the property is North-West, it gets a lot more sun than do most properties in the general vicinity, boasting increased warmth and natural comfort. And the sunsets are to die for!
The property borders state forest, a couple of neighbours on acreage and a 100 acre cattle farm.
The property has a rich history of gold. Eganstown was one of the first gold rush towns in the area and Brandy Hot Creek was renowned as a rich site for fossicking. Brandy Hot Road was home to two hotels in the hey day of the rush. Remnants of that time can be found on and around the property in the form of tailings, mine shafts and miner's cottages.
Today Eganstown and Brandy Hot Road / Dwyer Lane is a sought after location with some beautiful architectural homes in the neighbourhood. It is close enough to town (Daylesford - 7 min by car) to enjoy all this thriving town has to offer and at the same its time just far away enough to feel unbothered by its busyness.
The two water tanks total over 200,000 litres capacity. The well thought out tracks / driveways across the property mean the hard work of access is done. Various areas along the slope are terraced flat and the prime one is a stunning house site – and where you will find the planning permit for the dwelling on the land.
Plans are available for perusal, designed by Edition House. Aaaron Smith and Kim Bridgland of Edition House recently won House Magazine's best up and coming architects award 2019. The plans for the house are fully resolved and ready to go.
An inspection of this truly remarkable property will not disappoint.
