Nestled in the picturesque landscape of Baynton/Pastoria East, this remarkable 92-acre property, known as "Baynton Hills," offers an extraordinary blend of lifestyle, opportunity, and natural beauty. With rolling granite hills, a seasonal creek winding gracefully through the land, and stands of sheltering trees alive with native birdlife, kangaroos, and wombats, this is rural living at its finest.
Since 2012, "Baynton Hills" has been home to a boutique winery and cellar door, cultivating 5 acres of mature vineyards featuring Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Shiraz, and Riesling varietals. These cool-climate grapes are perfectly suited for biodynamic wine production, making this property an ideal choice for aspiring vintners or seasoned winemakers looking to expand.
The provincial-style home is as inviting as the land it rests on. It features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a study, and two spacious living areas, all designed for comfort and practicality. The central kitchen, complete with an island bench, pantry, and large 900mm oven, blends seamlessly with the dining and living areas, while gas central heating ensures year-round warmth.
For those with a passion for farming or tinkering, the property boasts numerous powered machinery sheds. The main shed, with its expansive 11m x 12m footprint, is equipped with a concrete floor and power, offering versatile storage or production options. It includes a laboratory/prep room, a cellar door with a servery area, and facilities such as two toilets and a shower, which could support staff, backpacker accommodation, or a farm-stay venture (subject to council approval).
Water is abundant, with five large rainwater tanks supplying the home and cellar door, complemented by two dams fed by the creek. The property's cool-climate setting and proximity to the renowned Granite Hills Winery, just 3.6km away on the Burke and Wills Track, make it perfect for hobby farming, viticulture, or a private rural retreat.
Conveniently located just 15km from Lancefield, 28km from Kyneton, 41km from Heathcote, and less than an hour to Melbourne Airport, "Baynton Hills" offers a rare opportunity to combine a tranquil lifestyle with endless potential. Whether you're dreaming of a rural escape, expanding a winery, or starting your own farm-stay business, this property is ready to make your vision a reality.
