For 40 years, one family has called 'Elrose' home. And when you stand here, looking out across Boolgatta Flats towards the familiar silhouette of Milton's Catholic Church high on Stony Hill, it's easy to understand why they stayed.
There is something truly special about this pocket of Yatte Yattah. Winter mists settle softly across the valley; cattle graze on the pastures below and rolling green hills frame a rural panorama that seems to stretch forever. In the distance, the church rises above Milton, a landmark that has guided generations of locals home at night and an enduring part of a view that is unmistakably South Coast.
Set across 3.32 hectares, or approximately eight acres, 'Elrose' offers the space and freedom of country living without leaving the coast behind. It is a property with history, heart and all the ingredients for another family to create something remarkable of their own.
Fully fenced and originally established as six productive, arable paddocks, the property combines an elevated homesite that takes full advantage of the magnificent rural panorama with gentler, flatter country below. A dam and cattle troughs service the land, while town water, power and an existing septic system provide valuable infrastructure already in place. Tar-sealed access leads to a circular driveway, with cattle yards and crush also negotiable.
This is a place to slow down and enjoy the rhythm of country life, enjoy a morning coffee overlooking the valley, cattle grazing in the paddocks, mist lifting from the flats and long afternoons watching the light move across the surrounding hills. There is room here to breathe, to grow, to raise a few animals and, above all, to create a home that makes the most of an extraordinary setting.
Yet for all its rural tranquillity, 'Elrose' remains wonderfully connected. Milton's boutiques, pubs, restaurants and cafés are just 5.7km away, Mollymook Beach is approximately 10.5km from the gate, and quick access to the Princes Highway keeps the wider South Coast within easy reach.
But ultimately, 'Elrose' is about something harder to measure.
It's the winter mist hanging low over the paddocks. The cattle wandering across the flats as the afternoon light falls through the valley. The hills turning an impossibly rich green after rain. And that remarkable outlook towards Milton, the kind of view that changes with the seasons, yet somehow never grows old.
After 40 years in one family, a rare opportunity has arrived for someone new to write the next chapter of 'Elrose'…….
