This breathtaking home on over 1000m2 of beautifully designed landscape offers over 40sq of luxury living and is a unique private sanctuary just 100m from the Barwon River.
The exclusive riverside location is extremely underrated with the river boasting stunning scenery, opportunities for daily fishing and kayaking, as well as the 18km walking / riding circuit weaving through Newtown's Balyang Sanctuary, Queens Park reserves, stopping at Buckley Falls and returning through Highton and Belmont. A true wonder of Geelong.
