THE DEAL
Perched on a picturesque hilltop in the postcard-worthy Yarra Valley, ‘Duck’n Hill Farm’ is the ultimate tree-change opportunity with its luxe features, spectacular scenery, thriving bed-and-breakfast, and placement under an hour from the CBD.
With extensive effort and expense put into every aspect of the 22-acre estate, its maintenance is minimal to mean it’s the ideal hobby-farm and weekend retreat, while a track record of outstanding short-stay returns gives the enticing option to run the high-earning B&B as a main occupation and embrace the Yarra Valley lifestyle at the same time. The focal building and primary residence of what was once an artists’ colony, ‘Tarantaal’ is a four-bedroom, two-living-area abode where northern and southern wings are parted by a central breezeway, wonderful for entertaining in a revamped kitchen, nights by the fire, and taking in remarkable sunsets over rolling hills and the city skyline.
Distinct from one-another to let guests have their own space, accommodation in newly built ‘The Loft’ and fully renovated ‘The Barn’ and ‘The Cottage’ generate three incomes simultaneously, all designed to be a cosy getaway where guests can roam the grounds, pick vegetables, greet animals, and savour the country experience before heading back to the bustle.
Equipped to be a fully functioning farm while holding winery potential should the vision be actualised (STCA), the property’s professionally landscaped gardens, top-of-the-range fencing, water systems, paddock, and pasture are perfect counterparts to a 2022-built machinery shed with an insulated office for the corporate professional to work productively in peace. 32kW in solar panels and a 64kW battery array mean the retreat can be almost-entirely off-grid come summertime, while fast EV charging heightens accommodation appeal immensely.
Both an open-air sanctuary and base for exploring the Valley vibrancy, it’s no more than a short, scenic drive to local icons in Yarra Valley Chocolaterie and Dairy, Healesville Sanctuary, Coldstream Brewery, Four Pillars Gin Distillery, and a selection of famous wineries and restaurants, along with the nearby Hurstbridge township for trains to the city centre.
