Overview

This exceptional riverfront residence offers a tranquil retreat on the Delatite River, combining lifestyle appeal with practical, family-friendly living spaces. The home is designed for low maintenance, yet features high-quality fixtures and finishes that ensure comfort and style throughout.

Spacious and light-filled living areas create an inviting atmosphere for everyday living and entertaining. The property’s advantageous floor plan emphasizes family functionality, while the expansive all-weather alfresco area provides seamless indoor-outdoor flow, ideal for enjoying views over lush lawns and the sparkling river.

Set on approximately three-quarters of an acre, the property benefits from extensive river frontage that offers easy access to crystal-clear waters—perfect for fishing, swimming, or simply unwinding in nature. Privacy is assured in this convenient location, only about 10 minutes from Mansfield’s shops and schools, and close to local amenities such as the Hunt Club Hotel, Merrijig Motor Inn, and general store.

Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to the Mt Buller and Mt Stirling snowfields, making it easy to embrace seasonal activities from skiing in winter to cooling off in the river during summer. This dual appeal as a personal haven and a strong holiday rental opportunity—with last year’s Airbnb returns exceeding $50,000—makes it a compelling choice for owners seeking versatility.

Key features include:

Ducted cooling and heating systems ensuring year-round comfort
A welcoming open fireplace enhancing the living space ambiance
Spacious parking for up to six vehicles, supporting lifestyle needs and visitor accommodation

This property presents a rare chance to secure a special riverside lifestyle in a private setting that is still accessible to essential conveniences and renowned natural attractions.
