Bespoke Barrabool Hills living

Some of the most commanding views in the region are from this part of the world and with HF Richardson Property’s recent listing at 650 Pollocksford Road, Gnarwarre, the combination of perfect positioning and quality of build, have combined to produce one of the finest lifestyle properties on the market today.

Commanding views of Mt Buninyong, the Brisbane Ranges and the You Yangs define this exceptional acreage holding, located in a privileged Barrabool Hills position.

Covering just under 100 acres, this exceptional lifestyle property enjoys incredible views and unmatched privacy, an easy 20-minute drive from Geelong.

HF Richardson sales manager Matt Poustie said the well-designed family home, which includes separate studio accommodation for visitors, is expected to secure strong market traction.

“Very rarely do circa 100-acre blocks with bespoke family homes hit the market, especially in such immaculate condition and enjoying such expansive views.

“This one is very special and has such a great feel inside the home with the sunlit, north-facing orientation.

“It’s a turnkey lifestyle property ready for farming from day one with great fencing, including electric to boundary, and water supply to troughs is all set up from the dam.

“The land consists of improved pastures, machinery shed and hay shed, plus cattle yards, crush and ramp for stock handling.

“It’s a very manageable farm for all types of farmers, and with a suitable soil profile, is certainly suitable for equine enthusiasts also.”

The architecturally designed ‘Modscape’ family home is set well back from the road, enjoying three main bedrooms plus separate office/study along with ensuite and walk-in robe to master, fourth bedroom or kids’ lounge room with split system heating and cooling, plus two bathrooms.

A standalone studio is an added bonus, enjoying an open plan bedroom and kitchenette, adjoining ensuite and split system heating and cooling, perfect for visitors, older children and sleepovers.

The heart of the home is the centrally-located, open plan kitchen, living and dining area which takes advantage of the expansive north-facing aspect, with views over the pool, paddocks and Barwon River valley.

Corian benchtops, premium European appliances, excellent storage and a family friendly flow make country living a breeze, whilst the sprawling timber deck area creates a seamless indoor-outdoor connection — the perfect spot for entertaining and sunset drinks.

The vendors have also meticulously planted more than 3,000 native trees along the gully which are now well-established and have created a unique environment of biodiversity and privacy. Incredibly rare-to-market, this blue-chip Barrabool Hills property will be sure to impress, offering the perfect balance of acreage living and town amenities, with the Geelong CBD, private schools, Surf Coast beaches and Melbourne via the Ring Road all easily accessible.
