UNIQUE LIFESTYLE PROPERTY ON RIVER AND RAIL TRAIL

Beautifully positioned only a short stroll along the Grand Ridge Rail Trail from the picturesque township of Boolarra, this prestigious turn of the century farmhouse stands proud in all her glory on 10.57 tranquil acres.

Overlooking established gardens, a meandering river and lush green rolling hills, ‘Kumalong’ is privately nestled between the Grand Ridge Rail Trail and Little Morwell River. It boasts two leases that provide approx. 20 acres of additional productive, flat and useable land.

The charms of the yesteryear will take your breath away as you step inside from the protected wrap around verandah, to the grand central hallway showcasing 11ft high ceilings and beautiful fretwork that continue throughout the home. Exuding warmth and homeliness, the expansive lounge is the heart of the home, featuring a wood fire set in the original brick chimney and split system to ensure your comfort year-round, whilst a large timber window provides views over the garden and fills the room with natural light.

Across the hall, a stunning brick fireplace with solid burning stove is the focal point of the charming kitchen, complete with butler’s pantry, servery to the deck, electric cooking, hardwood cabinetry and views over the farm. The home provides three character filled bedrooms, all generous in size with carpet (one with fireplace), whilst the formal dining room (also with fireplace) provides flexibility to be utilised as a 4th bedroom for larger families.

A calming colour palette, timber panelling and high ceilings ensure the bathroom feels spacious and inviting. A claw foot bath provides the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day, whilst a timber vanity and shower complete the room beautifully. A European laundry is adjoining whilst the separate toilet is positioned just across the hall.

Whether you are entertaining, taking in the sunset or enjoying a glorious summers day, the newly renovated wrap around verandah has you covered. Lush gardens featuring a glorious date palm, golden ash, tulip tree and an established orchard with pears, apple, mulberry, cherry, lemon and feijoas surround the home, providing shade and a peaceful ambience.

Externally the home has been freshly painted and well maintained. A double garage with concrete floor, power and attached workshop with wood storage are conveniently located near the home whilst an old dairy, hayshed and 8 paddocks with electric fencing complete this idyllic lifestyle property.

Whether you are fishing for trout or looking for platypus while enjoying a picnic by the waterfall, the 1.6kms of river frontage is a nature lovers dream. A dam, 2 x 20,000 litre tanks and the ability to pump from the river for ‘Stock and Domestic’ provide an abundance of water.

Positioned only a short walk to Boolarra township, 30 min to the Latrobe Valley and the gateway to East Gippsland with school bus pick up to Mirboo North Primary and Secondary this property is peaceful and private with all modern conveniences nearby. With good phone reception and NBN available this would suit a permanent lifestyle change, hobby farm or lease the land and enjoy as a wonderful weekender.

With a very enviable location, this property is the ideal escape to leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind and indulge in the quiet country lifestyle you have always dreamed of.
