253 Gordons Bridge Road, Kinglake VIC 3763

On the boundary of Kinglake and Castella, this near 50-acre property offers the perfect balance of cleared pasture and natural bushland, creating a private retreat with endless possibilities. Gently undulating and filled with natural beauty, the land invites you to enjoy both productive acreage and peaceful bushland.

At its centre lies a spectacular 7.5 megalitre spring-fed dam with its own jetty – a place to swim on warm summer days or simply sit by the water and take in the quiet. Mountain creek meanders through the property year round, bringing life to the land and adding to the sense of calm.

The rendered brick home, designed with passive solar principles, offers detailed mud brick internal walls creating a warm and welcoming environment. It includes four bedrooms plus a study, each with built-in robes, while the master features its own walk-in robe and ensuite. A central bathroom and separate toilet service the remaining bedrooms.

The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, where soaring cathedral ceilings add to the sense of space. The kitchen offers a gas cooktop, under-bench oven, double sink and large walk-in pantry, while wood fire heaters in both the dining and living areas ensure comfort throughout the cooler months. Sliding doors open to a patio overlooking the paddocks, while a wraparound verandah and carport add to the home's functionality and country appeal.

The house zone is securely fenced, cleared and private, framed by open paddocks and bush backdrops. For practical needs, there is a three-bay shed on a concrete slab with a lean-to, along with a machinery shed featuring two open bays, an enclosed bay and mezzanine storage. Practical features include a 90,000-litre water tank, sprinkler system connected to both tank and dam water, solar panels and a flexible three-way hot water system powered by solar, wood fire or electric.

With its mix of rolling pasture, native bush, abundant water and comfortable family home, 253 Gordons Bridge Road is more than just a property – it is a peaceful haven where privacy, space and nature come together.
