Paradise Plains, 550 Paradise Falls Road, Cheshunt VIC 3678

Farming | Lifestyle | High Country Adventure | Eco-Tourism Potential

Set amongst the spectacular mountains and waterways of Victoria's Upper King Valley, Paradise Plains is an exceptional 135.17ha (334 acre) rural holding combining productive grazing country, abundant water, substantial existing improvements and an extraordinary level of privacy.

One of the property's defining features is its location, with three boundaries adjoining the Alpine National Park. It is difficult to imagine a more secluded High Country setting while remaining less than 10 minutes from Cheshunt and approximately 15 minutes from dining at the Mountain View Hotel.

For the farmer, Paradise Plains offers a substantial and productive rural holding. For the lifestyle buyer, remarkable privacy and space. For the outdoor enthusiast, direct proximity to an immense natural playground. And for the entrepreneur, it provides an exciting base from which to investigate a future nature-based tourism enterprise.

Productive Country & High Rainfall
Paradise Plains comprises predominantly cleared grazing country suitable for cattle and a range of agricultural pursuits. Water is a strength, with permanent creeks and a reliable natural spring providing an excellent natural resource for the property. There is also a particularly attractive area towards the eastern boundary that could lend itself to investigation as a substantial private dam or lake. With its natural catchment and setting against the surrounding landscape, it could create an impressive additional feature for the property, subject to any necessary approvals.

Agricultural improvements include substantial boundary fencing incorporating concrete posts and quality wire, together with steel cattle yards and loading facilities and a 13m x 10m high-clearance workshop, machinery and feed storage building.

An Established Rural Retreat
A major feature of Paradise Plains is the substantial engineered steel-framed building of approximately 15m x 15m, providing extensive accommodation and living space including:
• Six bedrooms, including four mezzanine bedrooms
• Two bathrooms
• Fully equipped kitchen
• Expansive living area
• Wood-fired heating
• Insulation
• Approved septic system
• Substantial rainwater storage
• Solar generation providing 240-volt power
• Magnificent views towards Mount Cobbler and the Alpine ranges

Whether used as a private family retreat, farm base or potentially incorporated into a future tourism concept, the existing improvements provide an invaluable head start.

Three Boundaries with the Alpine National Park
Few rural properties can offer this combination of productive farmland and direct connection to the Alpine National Park. With the National Park adjoining three boundaries, Paradise Plains enjoys an exceptional sense of seclusion, natural beauty and connection to the High Country. The surrounding environment supports abundant native wildlife, together with deer regularly moving through the wider district, adding to the genuine High Country character of the property.
For those drawn to the outdoors, the location opens the door to an extraordinary range of experiences – bushwalking, wildlife and nature photography, High Country exploration, four-wheel driving and simply enjoying the peace and privacy of a substantial rural holding surrounded by protected natural country. Fishing and water recreation are also close at hand, with the King River less than 10 minutes away and Lake William Hovell approximately 20 minutes from the property.

The King Valley – Food, Wine & High Country Adventure
Despite its remarkable seclusion, Paradise Plains remains connected to everything that makes the King Valley one of North East Victoria's most distinctive destinations.
The region is renowned for its Italian heritage, wineries, Prosecco, restaurants and exceptional local produce, while attractions including Paradise Falls, Lake William Hovell, the King River, Powers Lookout and the Alpine National Park attract visitors seeking nature and adventure. This creates a rare proposition – the ability to enjoy genuine High Country privacy while remaining only minutes from Cheshunt and the King Valley's food and wine experiences.

King Valley Eco-Tourism Potential
With 334 acres, three boundaries adjoining the Alpine National Park, established accommodation and infrastructure, permanent water and an exceptional natural setting, Paradise Plains provides an exciting base from which to investigate a farm-stay, eco-tourism or nature-based accommodation enterprise.
Potential concepts could include:
Eco accommodation • farm stays • wellness and nature retreats • wildlife and photography experiences • agricultural tourism • guided nature experiences • High Country adventure accommodation. The property is within the Farming Zone, and any tourism, accommodation or further development would be subject to Rural City of Wangaratta and other relevant statutory approvals. Paradise Plains is not being offered as a pre-approved tourism development. Rather, it provides something increasingly difficult to find – the land, location, privacy, infrastructure and natural environment from which a purchaser can explore the possibilities.
