Overview

Lifestyle Acreage Opportunity Just Minutes From Daylesford

A rare opportunity awaits with this stunning 8151sqm (approximately 2 acres) allotment, ideally located just minutes from the vibrant Daylesford CBD. Offering space, privacy and exceptional lifestyle potential, this beautiful parcel of land is perfect for those looking to create their dream country retreat. The property previously held a planning permit for two dwellings, providing flexibility for future development (STCA). While the building permit expired in August 2024, there is a partially constructed structure on site originally designed as part of an off-grid home project, giving buyers a unique starting point for their own sustainable lifestyle vision. Set on rich red volcanic soil and fully fenced, the property features young trees and established native and deciduous hedging along the street frontage, creating both privacy and a beautiful natural setting. Additional infrastructure already in place includes multiple water tanks, shedding, a chicken coop, and a dedicated structure designed to support a large solar panel and battery system, making this property ideal for those seeking self-sufficiency and off-grid living. Positioned beside the Hepburn Regional Park, the property offers immediate access to scenic walking and cycling tracks leading to Sailors Falls, Lake Daylesford, and many other local natural attractions. Despite its peaceful rural setting, the land remains conveniently located just 20-25 minutes from Ballarat or Ballan, and just over an hour from Melbourne. With ample space for a family home, vegetable gardens, animals, orchards, and outdoor living, this property presents a unique opportunity to create a private lifestyle sanctuary close to one of Victoria's most sought-after country towns. Property Features • Previously approved planning permit (initial permit for two dwellings) • 8151sqm (approx. 2 acres) of cleared land with young trees planted • 2 x 15,000L water tanks, 1 x 10,000L CFA tank, 2 x 2,000L poly tanks • Power connection available at the corner of the block • Rich red volcanic soil ideal for gardens and orchards • Fully fenced property • Two sheds and a chicken coop • Structure for solar panels and battery system for off-grid capability • Sealed road access • Low Density Residential zoning • Rare opportunity to purchase acreage so close to Daylesford This exceptional lifestyle property offers space, privacy and enormous potential in a highly desirable location.
