Overview

Bring your hiking boots, binoculars and a bottle of water; you'll want to explore this one!

Held within the same family for over 150 years, a 69ha / 172ac portion of the historic "Daintree Farm", overlooking Werribee Gorge and Bacchus Marsh and Melbourne to the east, must be sold.

Consists of two adjoining titles:

• Lot 1 TP340748 - 58.72ha
• Lot 1 TP891287 - 10.93ha

Abutting Werribee Gorge State Park, with spectacular views to the north, west and east, taking in Falcon's Lookout and Needles Beach below, this portion of Daintree Farm features 554 metres of Werribee River frontage.

Steeped in history, Richard Daintree, a renowned 19th-century photographer and geologist, captured historical images of the Bacchus Marsh area, including the Werribee River and surrounding landscapes between roughly 1854-1864. The area was, and remains, a significant agricultural hub, described in 1853 as a "delightful valley" with flourishing crops and early, significant infrastructure.

The farm features a beautiful balance of native flora and open grasslands, with some of the paddocks historically used for cropping and sheep production. You'll identify plenty of perfect sites and space for a residence or off-grid weekend retreat (STCA).

Only a short distance from the flourishing township of Bacchus Marsh, convenient amenities are close at hand including shopping precincts, medical centres, primary schools, colleges and regular train transport to Melbourne.
