Mount Duneed, VIC 3217

There are very few places where land, history and location align with such quiet authority. Stretton Park is a deeply established rural estate spanning approximately 39.7 hectares (98 acres), located just a short distance from the Surf Coast shoreline while firmly rooted in productive country tradition. Established in 1865, this property carries a pastoral legacy rarely retained at this scale, having once been part of an 11,000 acre wool enterprise extending from Mount Duneed to Torquay and Barwon Heads.

The land is open, balanced, and highly functional, shaped by decades of careful stewardship. Fertile paddocks are framed by shelter belts and mature trees, supporting ongoing grazing and rural pursuits. Clearview Dam sits quietly within the landscape, providing dependable water security and reflecting the changing sky. This is complemented by an additional spring-fed dam that has never been known to run dry. Historic cattle yards, recognized among the finest in the district, along with the original woolshed, reinforce the property’s enduring agricultural capability.

At the heart of the estate stands the heritage three-bedroom farmhouse, originally built as the station manager’s residence and later extended with care to blend Federation character with everyday comfort. The home features heated concrete floors, a slow combustion wood stove, generous living spaces, feature brick walls, and bay windows that create interiors that feel warm, grounded, and inviting. An updated country kitchen and heritage-style bathrooms complete a home designed for togetherness, providing a place to gather, unwind, and reconnect at the close of each day.

The surrounding gardens have long supported a healthy, seasonal lifestyle, producing fresh fruit and vegetables and reinforcing a life lived in unison with the land. A modest studio with independent amenities sits discreetly within the grounds, adding flexibility without disrupting the homestead’s integrity.

Mature Peppercorn trees frame a timeless outlook from the homestead toward the dam, anchoring the setting in calm and permanence. Despite its sense of space and privacy, Stretton Park enjoys immediate access to Torquay, Anglesea, and Geelong, delivering a rare balance between rural scale and coastal convenience. The option to acquire an additional five acres further enhances flexibility, subject to council approval.

This estate is defined by its history, capability, and lasting value, offering a unique opportunity to own a significant rural property with strong agricultural features and a charming heritage home in a highly sought-after location.
