Set on over 11 acres with sweeping views to Mt Buller, "Murren" is a cherished alpine escape, steeped in history, in an enviable location. The home combines old-fashioned charm with relaxed country living. This unique property, with a variety of magnificent, established trees and a host of wildlife will draw you in.
Originally a humble skiers chalet built in the 1950s, a dam was installed specifically to capture a mirror image of snow-capped Mt Buller - a feature still enchanting today. Over its lifetime, the house was extended and the property served as a hobby farm, lodge accommodation, location for the Man From Snowy River films and traditional Bed & Breakfast.
Inside, timber-lined walls, exposed beams, and panoramic windows frame breathtaking mountain vistas and peaceful garden views. Multiple living areas include a sunroom, living room with original open fireplace and an open lounge off the large country kitchen.
