345 Settlement Road, Swan Marsh VIC 3249

Tucked away on just under two acres, this character-filled country home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy space, privacy and a slower pace of life in a picturesque rural setting. Surrounded by established trees and open grassed areas, the property immediately sets the tone for a peaceful escape from the everyday, while still remaining within comfortable reach of Colac and the coast.

The home itself is rich in charm and originality, showcasing a blend of timber floors, wall paneling and period features that reflect its country roots. The kitchen and dining area forms the heart of the home, featuring timber benchtops, a classic white tiled splashback and an electric oven, with ample space for everyday meals and relaxed gatherings. A split system provides modern comfort, while the existing fireplace presents an inviting focal point that could be restored to enhance warmth and atmosphere through the cooler months.

Adjoining living areas continue the home’s distinctive style, highlighted by a mix of timber finishes, high ceilings and another open fireplace that adds to the cosy, welcoming feel. Natural light filters through multiple windows, connecting the indoors with the surrounding greenery and reinforcing the sense of tranquillity throughout the home.

Four bedrooms are spread across the floorplan, each offering its own personality through varied timber flooring and wall details, allowing plenty of scope to personalise each space. The main bedroom includes its own fireplace, adding an extra layer of comfort and character. The bathroom follows a traditional layout with a shower over bath, vanity and toilet, remaining functional while offering future potential for enhancement if desired.

Outside, the land provides room to breathe, with established trees, open lawn areas and a clear sense of privacy. Practical additions include a 32,000-litre water tank with water filter to the house, a small shed with three separate chook pens, a workshop with concrete flooring, and a bore with pump, making the property well suited to those seeking a semi-rural lifestyle with self-sufficiency in mind.

Ripe for new owners with vision, this property offers the chance to revive and enhance a home full of soul, while enjoying the serenity that only a country setting can provide. Positioned just over two and a half hours west of Melbourne, approximately 20 minutes from Colac and around 45 minutes from the Great Ocean Road and the Twelve Apostles, this is a unique lifestyle opportunity waiting to be realised.
