Swan Bay, VIC 3225

Some spend a lifetime searching for a place like this. The family behind this remarkable property had the vision to create and cherish it over many years. A private lane shaded by mature gums leads to a 20-acre estate with Swan Bay frontage, seamlessly integrated into its natural surroundings. The property offers stunning views where the sunrise illuminates the bay and the sunset casts a warm glow toward Marcus Hill, with the Bellarine Peninsula feeling both nearby and wonderfully secluded.

The residence is oriented directly north and is thoughtfully positioned across the natural rise of the land, sitting low to allow the expansive views to dominate the living spaces. Timber-lined ceilings add warmth and character overhead, while large windows invite the open sky and the changing rural landscape into the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas. The timber kitchen is designed for relaxed mornings at the breakfast bar, with views of Swan Bay and the day unfolding beyond the glass. Sliding doors open to alfresco decks on both sides of the home, facilitating natural airflow and creating inviting outdoor rooms perfect for coffee, leisurely lunches, and evening drinks. These spaces extend to a firepit area where stories can be shared beneath a star-filled sky.

The interior palette is organic and understated, deeply connected to the surrounding environment. An open fireplace and a wood-burning stove provide a cozy winter ambiance, complemented by ducted heating throughout the home for comfort beyond the main living zones. The lower level includes a bedroom wing with two bedrooms and the main bathroom, while the master suite is privately set down a few steps into its own retreat featuring an ensuite, built-in robe, walk-in robe, and direct access to the outdoors. A large laundry and mudroom are practical additions, ready to accommodate the demands of rural living.

Beyond the residence, the property balances beauty with functionality. Native gardens and vibrant plantings enhance the landscape, alongside a productive vegetable garden. Rainwater tanks with irrigation, 20 solar panels, and extensive shedding support a variety of uses including grazing, agistment, agricultural pursuits, or simply a private sanctuary. The location allows for riding to the beach or a quick trip into the village, before returning to the expansive 20 acres where space and tranquility are yours to enjoy. This property offers a unique sense of calm and connection that can only be truly appreciated upon arrival.
