Enviable rural living with Otways views

Deans Marsh is one of the Surf Coast’s most enviable regions to live or holiday as not only is it at the gateway to the Otway National Park, but it’s only a short and very scenic drive to the Great Ocean Road and all it has to offer.

Also, the popular hinterland communities of Birregurra and Winchelsea are just up the road with Colac and Geelong also readily accessible.

Small lifestyle properties on manageable acreage are a rare find in this area so it’s exciting to see that HF Richardson Property have just listed a real gem just moments from the Deans Marsh township.

Encompassing just over 4 acres, 1230 Birregurra-Deans Marsh Road blends an outstanding rural lifestyle in the small community of Deans Marsh with the convenience of having the picturesque Otways on your doorstep and only a short drive to the beach at Lorne.

An in-ground swimming pool, numerous fruit trees and two paddocks for horses or other livestock make this a great family property.

HF Richardson Property agent Ken McDonald said that with housing very expensive in Lorne, Deans Marsh presents a great opportunity for an affordable alternative with an easy commute to Lorne for work or days at the beach.

“There are very few properties come on the market at Deans Marsh; this property presents an excellent opportunity with a spacious, small acreage property.”

Set well-back from the road, the north facing family residence features a spacious open plan living/dining/kitchen incorporating an eight-burner Smeg stove, wood heater and two split system air-conditioning units.

Ample accommodation is provided with four bedrooms with built-in robes, the master bedroom has extensive robes and ensuite and the laundry and family bathroom are centrally located.

A full length verandah stretches along the front and back of the house with the pool and outdoor entertainment area at the rear enjoying lovely views over the rural landscape.

Additional features include solar power and water tank storage totalling 140,000 litres.

There is also an old wool shed and lockup shed/workshop with power.

Deans Marsh is serviced by an excellent primary school with buses to the region’s secondary schools.

Close proximity to Lorne and the Otway State Forest provides the freedom of bush walks, trail rides and beaches while the gourmet food at the local Deans Marsh Store is not to be missed, all of which makes this area an ideal lifestyle location.

Sale by fixed date, closing 1pm, Tuesday, December 06, 2022.
