95 King Track
Chapple Vale, VIC 3260

Situated approximately 40 minutes from Colac and two hours from Melbourne, this remarkable rural property encompasses 106 acres of cultivated farm land supplemented by an additional 10 acres of permanently leased river frontage. The estate is anchored by a substantial 350 square metre two-level residence set amidst three acres of meticulously maintained European and native gardens, providing an exquisite living environment that harmonizes nature with comfort.

The home’s architectural character is defined by its blue gum exterior and celebrated craftsmanship, as highlighted in Country Style magazine. Inside, Jarrah timber floors and a wood-fired hydronic heating system create a warm, inviting atmosphere, complemented by a Jetmaster fireplace and three split system air conditioners for year-round comfort. Expansive double-glazed windows afford sweeping views over the verdant park-like valley, enriching the connection to the surrounding landscape.

Designed with versatility and lifestyle in mind, the residence includes four bedrooms — two of which serve as guest suites — four bathrooms, two spacious living areas, a dedicated music room, a custom-fitted library, and a separate study, accommodating a variety of family and work arrangements. The kitchen integrates modern aesthetics and functionality, outfitted with marble countertops and premium Miele appliances, ideal for both everyday cooking and entertaining.

The extensive grounds enhance the property’s appeal, featuring a modern grass tennis court with an adjacent gazebo for al fresco dining, a terrace, colonnade, and outdoor chess area. The land is equally divided between pasture suitable for cattle grazing and native rainforest populated by Stringybarks, Manna Gums, and Blackwoods, fostering a rich ecosystem and picturesque vistas. Sheepyard Creek meanders through the estate, feeding a dam that irrigates the gardens, orchard, and supports fire management systems.

A standout feature is the commercial potential offered by the fenced orchard containing 140 heritage apple trees, reflecting a blend of agricultural productivity and lifestyle enjoyment. Supporting amenities include an array of substantial outbuildings, such as a steel machinery shed, a woodworking shed with mezzanine, a large hay shed, a carport accommodating four vehicles, and facilities for poultry and stabling. A charming, fireproof brick cottage built from CSR Hebel provides additional guest accommodation.

Water security is ensured through a high-capacity domestic rainwater tank system holding 150,000 litres, supplemented by a 24KVA backup generator guaranteeing uninterrupted electricity supply. This property presents a rare chance to own a fully functional working farm combined with a high-quality, comfortable rural residence, appealing to buyers seeking a tranquil yet well-equipped countryside lifestyle.
