575 Old Tolmie Road, Barwite VIC 3722

Tucked away in a peaceful pocket of Barwite and with Broken River frontage, this remarkable lifestyle property offers the kind of privacy and natural beauty that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.

Set on just under 19 acres and only 10 minutes from Mansfield, it feels a world away from town life, with the home positioned well back from the road amongst beautifully established gardens and the soothing sounds of the Broken River beyond.

Built by the Cameron family in the 1930s, the home is rich in warmth and character, thoughtfully updated over time while still retaining its welcoming country charm. The spacious master suite is a standout, complete with a huge modern ensuite, walk-in robe and additional built-in robes, while the second bedroom is generously proportioned and the third bedroom or study offers flexibility for families, guests or those working from home. The family bathroom has also been tastefully updated.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen enjoys a lovely outlook across the gardens, where native birdlife is constantly passing through, while the adjoining sunroom provides the perfect spot to enjoy a quiet morning coffee or breakfast. A large lounge room with feature fireplace creates a cosy gathering space through the cooler months, complemented by split-system heating and cooling in the dining area and third bedroom for year-round comfort.

Outside, the property is exceptionally well suited to those chasing a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Established poultry pens and enclosures are already in place for chickens or other birds, while two good-sized paddocks provide ample space for horses, sheep or hobby farming pursuits. Enjoy your own produce with an established orchard and plenty of room for veggie gardens. A substantial two-car shed provides excellent storage and workspace, complete with a lined office ideal for those working from home, while the adjoining two-car carport offers additional covered parking for vehicles, trailers or recreational equipment.

The true hero of the property, however, is the stunning Broken River frontage. Beautifully private and complete with 2 megalitres of pumping rights, this special stretch of river not only provides a valuable water resource for gardens, livestock or hobby farming, but is also home to platypus, abundant birdlife and peaceful places to sit, swim or simply take in the serenity.

It is a rare opportunity to secure an idyllic High Country lifestyle property where history, nature and lifestyle come together so effortlessly.
