270 RILEYS ROAD, Outtrim VIC 3951

This 24 ha (60 acres) small farm is a joy to live and work on, with a comfortable, older style 3 bedroom house plus semi-detached small cottage (currently Airbnb). Tucked in at the edge of the hills on a quiet road, approximately 15 minutes from Korumburra and 20 minutes from Inverloch beaches, less than 2 hours from Melbourne CBD. The very gently sloping land is easy and safe to work on and provides beautiful long views across the Outtrim flats and behind to the hills.
Key features include:
• 3 large bedrooms (built-in robes) single bathroom, separate laundry & toilet
• Lounge with solid wood fire and air conditioner, light and bright dining area with ceiling fan
• Modern kitchen, currently registered commercial (for preserves & egg sales)
• Adjoining single-room cottage with spacious en-suite, underfloor heating, ceiling fan, reverse-cycle aircon, outside basic kitchen. This is currently used as a farm stay / Airbnb

I am inviting new owners to take this unique opportunity to have the convenience of easy access to towns, hills, beaches and city, and to work on a practically laid out, beautiful, quiet and environmentally sustainable property. It has been my "happy place" for many years, and now it's time to pass it on. Expressions of interest & offers are invited. Inspection by appointment with the owner.
