Steeped in local history, this picturesque property sits on the former site of the Kurrle Hotel, a cherished landmark of Jumbunna's past. A nod to its heritage remains with the original, fully functioning well and two magnificent 132-year-old English Elm trees, planted upon the hotel's opening, still gracing the boundary.
The residence combines charm, flexibility, and comfort, offering four bedrooms or the option to convert to three bedrooms and two living areas to suit your needs. The updated kitchen features modern appliances, including a dishwasher, while the updated bathroom delivers contemporary convenience. The cosy fireplace creates the perfect setting for relaxed country evenings. Additional features include a septic system, bottled gas for cooking, electric hot water, and 50,000L of tank water.
For those who are handy or seeking a property with scope to enhance, this home offers an exciting opportunity to add further value - whether through cosmetic updates, landscaping projects, or tailoring the spaces to suit your lifestyle vision. With its generous landholding, the property may also offer potential for future subdivision (STCA), providing an exciting opportunity for developers or those looking to capitalise on the land's potential.
Outdoors, the property continues to impress. Powered sheds with concrete floors provide excellent storage and workspace options, while fully enclosed fencing ensures animal safety. There's also a large chicken coop and bird aviary, ideal for hobby farmers or those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle.
The established gardens are a true delight, showcasing a variety of native and feature trees. In spring, the nature strip comes alive with daffodils, irises, and crab apple blossoms. The fruit orchard is equally impressive, featuring apricot, blood orange, cherry, lemon, mandarin, nectarine, orange, passionfruit, pear (two varieties), and plum (two varieties) - a dream for any garden enthusiast.
A rare combination of history, character, and modern practicality, 12 Herring Lane offers an inviting rural lifestyle in the heart of South Gippsland's rolling hills, with ample potential for those eager to make it their own.
