Coveted Barrabool Hills lifestyle opportunity

IF you’re searching for a lifestyle property that caters to equine pursuits or small-scale farming, HF Richardson Property presents a prime opportunity set amid the panoramic vistas of the Barrabool Hills.

To be auctioned in March, 20 Georges Road, Barrabool is a rare and outstanding opportunity to secure a beautifully presented and wonderfully positioned lifestyle property within the sought-after and tightly held Barrabool Hills.

 

Situated on a premium allotment of about 6 acres, this superbly presented brick home with expansive countryside views features an abundance of natural light, giving a great sense of space throughout.

HF Richardson Property senior sales professional Tony Hyde said small acreage properties in the Barrabool Hills were certainly a rare commodity and well held due to the family-friendly community and the rolling countryside views.

 

“Buyers have the options to renovate or extend the home, utilise the horse stables and arena on offer and create the perfect equine setup or agistment enterprise.

“It’s certainly an A+ position and offers the best of country life whilst being only a short drive into Geelong or the Surf Coast.”

 

Surrounded by established gardens and mature trees, the homestead has been perfectly located in an elevated position and offers a renovated kitchen with stone benches, breakfast bar, pyrolytic oven, gas hotplates, dishwasher and an adjoining study or office space.

 

This connects seamlessly through to the adjoining open-plan dining and living area, which enjoys sliding door access to the alfresco balcony, the perfect place to take in the magnificent countryside views over a morning coffee or an evening refreshment.

The provision of split-system heating and cooling and a Thorma wood fire adds to the rural ambience and increases the self-sustainability of the home.

 

There is also a spacious downstairs lounge with wood fire that can be utilised as a bedroom, two further bedrooms with built-in robes, central bathroom and a renovated laundry with separate toilet.

 

Established trees surround the property, which is divided into four main paddocks and includes a dam, an impressive floodlit 60m x 20m horse arena, horse stables featuring two stalls, secured tack room and hay shed, two day yards, a four-bay shed comprising three enclosed bays, plus an open float/storage bay, a second two bay machinery shed, and about 190,000 litres of tank water storage.

 

This exceptional property is a rare find and provides the ultimate country lifestyle with the benefits of a blue-chip position, providing easy access to the nearby Highton Village, Geelong’s premier primary and secondary schools, the Geelong CBD and waterfront precinct, as well as easy access to the nearby Ring Road for an easy drive up to Melbourne or down the coast.

 

Ideally suited as a permanent family home or as a rural weekend escape, this is a truly rare opportunity to live the Barrabool Hills lifestyle and enjoy the views, space and rural serenity for years to come.

 

To be auctioned Saturday 14 March at 11am.
