Set across approximately 13.6 hectares (33 acres) of fertile red volcanic soil, this exceptional rural holding offers a unique blend of lifestyle, scale, and established income streams in the picturesque setting of Romsey. The property features a meandering creek, mature trees, and gently undulating pastures, combining natural beauty with productive land.

The centerpiece is a gracious Victorian-inspired homestead, exquisitely finished and thoughtfully designed for modern family living. The spacious home includes four bedrooms and multiple living zones, enhanced by high ceilings, abundant natural light, and double glazing throughout for comfort and energy efficiency.

The kitchen and main living area create a warm and inviting central hub, anchored by a wood fireplace that adds character and seasonal comfort. The home is equipped with centrally controlled electric ducted heating and cooling, ensuring year-round climate control. The kitchen is both striking and highly functional, featuring a Falcon cooker, a butler’s pantry, and refined detailing consistent with the home's overall design. Living spaces extend naturally to a central entertaining deck and adjoining kitchen, dining, and living domains, facilitating effortless everyday living and entertaining. The wraparound verandah frames the home and captures sweeping rural vistas, reinforcing the seamless transition between indoor spaces and the surrounding landscape.

Outdoors, the lifestyle offering continues with a beautifully established, irrigated vegetable garden and a dedicated chook shed, enhancing the property's self-sufficiency and rural charm.

A notable feature is The Stables, a fully restored and self-contained two-bedroom cottage currently operating as a successful bed and breakfast. Privately positioned among established oak trees, it enjoys strong occupancy and provides an immediate, proven income stream. Complementing this is The Cottage, a separate original farmhouse set within its own peaceful surrounds, offering a secure and consistent rental return, further strengthening the property's income profile.

Additionally, two low-maintenance picturesque camping sites provide further passive income opportunities while capitalizing on the property's natural setting. Each dwelling benefits from its own access via sealed road frontage, ensuring privacy and flexibility for multiple occupants or income streams.

Extensive infrastructure supports both lifestyle and agricultural pursuits, including a machinery shed, workshop, and a separate office space with kitchenette, ideal for remote work or property management. Water security is well catered for, with town supply to both The Cottage and The Stables, while the main residence is serviced by two 22,500-litre rainwater tanks. A spring-fed dam further enhances water reliability.

The land is well suited to grazing and hay production, with established pasture improvements including lucerne and shelter belts that enhance both productivity and usability.

Located under an hour from Melbourne’s CBD and approximately 40 minutes to Melbourne Airport, this property represents a rare opportunity to secure a versatile rural estate with multiple established income streams and significant future potential. It is a unique offering where elegance, passive income, and country tranquility converge.
