Once in a lifetime opportunity to secure this fantastic 1.8 hectare (approx. 4.45 acres) block with sweeping Woodford valley views and absolute Merri river frontage. Located in peaceful Bushfield, just 5 minutes North of Warrnambool, you have a great local school just down the road and all amenities just moments away… but the feeling that you’re miles away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Clean country air, established native gardens housing varied birdlife and wildlife and panoramic views of the rolling hills.
A small sandstone cottage is perched on top of the rise, offering various possibilities. The house is cosy and comfortable with 1 large bedroom, spacious living area, modern kitchen & bathroom, good sized timber deck & attached carport/ shed. The cottage could be extended or kept as a holiday home/ retreat, used as a studio or for some rental income, or you could live in the house while building your new home.
I believe the purchaser of this property will build a spectacular new home in this dream setting. This property does offer a very unique lifestyle in an excellent location and the bonus of direct access to the river. For those wanting some space for the kids and pets to run, there is plenty of room to build a sizable residence, outdoor entertaining areas, garaging, sheds, etc set back off the road with an elevated viewpoint where you can really enjoy the beautiful setting.
The block slopes down to the Merri with a good sized fairly flat section bottom where you could put the table and chairs or rest the easel. The Northern boundary of the block is enclosed by a curve in the river, thus creating an idyllic, private setting to swim, fish, canoe, etc. Imagine taking the kids / grandkids down to the river with fishing rods in hand and having your catch on the barbie for tea as you watch the sun set through the valley… without leaving your own backyard!
This one-off property must be seen to be appreciated. Just within Warrnambool City limits but a serene private setting where your family can enjoy real country living.
