480 Russell Creek Road Hill End VIC 3825

Positioned in a peaceful, wildlife-rich setting and bordering the state forest, this beautifully crafted two-level mudbrick home positioned on 10.91 hectares, delivers a lifestyle defined by nature, sustainability, and quality local craftsmanship.

Constructed using highly sought-after, locally sourced mud bricks, this home is increasingly rare to find. The bricks are not only visually striking but renowned for their thermal performance, durability, and timeless appeal, setting this property apart from standard construction and ensuring comfort in every season.

The home immediately feels warm and welcoming, with a floor plan that flows effortlessly from room to room. Large windows in the lounge flood the space with natural light while capturing views of the surrounding landscape and wildlife.
A timber staircase connects the two levels seamlessly, continuing the consistent theme of locally sourced materials throughout the home.

The open-plan kitchen and living area is ideal for everyday living and entertaining, featuring a 900mm oven and cooktop. A coonara wood heater creates a cozy centerpiece, complemented by split-system air conditioning for year-round comfort.
The bathroom is finished with rare glass shower tiles, adding a unique touch. Upstairs, a private room opens onto its own balcony, the perfect place to slow down and enjoy the peaceful bush outlook and views over Mt Baw Baw.

Comfort and efficiency are further enhanced by double-glazed windows throughout, a north-facing orientation, and a 16-panel solar system, providing more power than the home requires.

A True Wildlife Haven.
This property is a genuine habitat, home to a wide array of native animals. With the state forest as your neighbour, privacy is assured and the connection to nature is constant - whether it's birdsong in the morning or wildlife moving through the land at dusk.
An undercover 2.5-metre-wide concrete path wraps around the entire home, providing easy access in all conditions. The house paddock is secured with deer fencing for added protection.

Water supply is abundant, with two small feeder tanks from the house and shed that feed into a larger water tank that comfortably service the home and established gardens. The property features a large variety of fruit trees, supporting a productive and sustainable lifestyle.

A standout feature is the beautiful central established liquid amber tree, anchoring a free-flowing circular driveway that allows easy access to both the home and shed.
