Description: Established on just over an acre of freehold land (the vendor says is Subdividable) at the absolute heart of the Hamlet of Elands, yet unseen from the road, the estate is cloaked in a mix of native shrubs, trees including an amazing Plumb Pine and a much photographed exotic specimens, like the giant Liquid Amber that stands sentinel overlooking the estate. It provides beautiful dappled sunlight in the heat of summer and a striking blaze of autumnal colour as the seasons change. Birdsong is bountiful, with birds of all colours and hue on display all complimented by other more exotic Australian wild life.
Elands is a world renown home to the Ellenborough falls and those eco souls that have sought over the last 4 decades to protect the planets special bio diversity and ancient Sub Tropical rain forest and Native trees from destruction.
The homestead itself is a solid native hardwood character filled 3 brm colonial cottage with an expansive deck sweeping from one side to the other. Originally built at the Yarras Timber Mill in the early 1900's from heart native timber, it was purchased by my vendor from the Yarras mill and transported to its present sight in 1980. There it underwent a major renovation to a more modern style but retaining its solid and sound core and delightful charm. Her bond with this home has been life long she loves it and leaving has taken her years, to come to terms with.
The property is on the grid, has a septic sewer system and water is supplied from rainwater stored in a 20,000 litre tank. There is as you would expect a cosey wood burning freestanding fire box for those convivial nights by the fire backed up with a split system air conditioning unit.
This estate is what dreams are made of. The climate supports lush and vibrant growth and bio diversity. The hamlet of Elands includes a quaint traditional primary school just down the road, a general store and PO up the road (next door) and a frequently used Community a few hundred meters further up the road. The property literally abounds with birds of all colours and hue.
The Property is available for inspection at advertised times or by appointment.
