An Exceptional Waterfront Residence with Period Elegance
This truly unique waterfront property pairs a beautifully renovated period home with a rare and private lakeside setting, delivering a lifestyle defined by tranquillity, natural beauty, and an uninterrupted connection to the water. Nestled within a secluded bushland enclave, the historic residence has been sensitively restored to provide contemporary comfort while honouring its original character and craftsmanship.
Breathtaking panoramic water views and direct waterfront access define the home’s extraordinary position. Most rooms capture sweeping lake vistas, creating a constant sense of calm and an immersive connection with the surrounding natural environment.
The expansive open-plan living zone is ideal for entertaining, seamlessly integrating the kitchen, dining, and family areas while enjoying uninterrupted water views. The master bedroom is a true retreat, highlighted by a stunning ensuite that opens via sliding doors to the surrounding gardens and lake beyond. Three additional bedrooms and a central bathroom continue the theme of period elegance, blending original features with modern convenience.
Custom-made tracked timber partitions allow the home to be effortlessly divided into two private living zones, offering flexibility for guests, extended family living, or private retreats.
Period features are showcased throughout, including polished timber floors, leadlight windows, and refined architectural detailing. These are complemented by large rear-facing glass windows that beautifully frame the ever-changing waterfront outlook.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. Front and rear verandas, a rear alfresco zone, and a dedicated waterfront BBQ entertaining area provide multiple spaces to relax or entertain while immersed in the serene lakeside setting.
Comfort and sustainability have been thoughtfully considered, with solar panels, a substantial log-burning wood heater for the cooler months and split-system heating and cooling. Additional infrastructure includes an impressive 8m x 12m shed with concrete floor, antique wood heater, along with a 2-megalitre water supply servicing all irrigation needs.
The landscaped grounds are exceptional, featuring a diverse range of native plant species, a tranquil lagoon, and a monumental rock waterfall. Designed with a Zen-like attention to detail, the gardens have been created with a philosophy of enhancing — never overpowering — the natural environment, resulting in a thriving, bird and wildlife-friendly sanctuary.
True waterfront living is realised via a private jetty and detachable pontoon, perfectly positioned for swimming, kayaking, fishing, rowing, water skiing, and freshwater crayfishing. Burrumurra is especially prized by anglers and water enthusiasts alike.
The Nagambie Lakes region is internationally recognised, home to renowned wineries including Château Tahbilk and Mitchelton, a prestigious thoroughbred breeding district celebrated as the home of Black Caviar, and some of Victoria’s most coveted waterfront estates.
177 Goulburn Weir Road presents a rare and refined waterfront lifestyle opportunity — a private, character-rich residence in an exceptional lakeside setting, easily accessible to Melbourne and truly unforgettable.
