There’s a certain feeling you get when you arrive at 71 Wallaces Road. The gardens, the shelter of the established trees and the sense of space all invite you to slow down. Then you take in the view: an extraordinary 180-degree panorama stretching across the countryside to Wilsons Promontory. It’s the kind of outlook that changes with the day and the seasons, and never loses its appeal.
Set on approximately 2.3 hectares (5.7 acres) on the outskirts of Korumburra, this much-loved farmlet offers the rare combination of privacy, usable land and easy access to town. Its tucked-away battleaxe position has no close neighbours, yet Korumburra’s shops and amenities are only a five-minute drive away, with Leongatha also within easy reach.
The solid, low-maintenance brick home is wrapped in a full-length veranda, providing shelter and a lovely place to enjoy the gardens and surrounding outlook. Inside, the open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge is bright and welcoming, with the view taking centre stage from the kitchen window and main living area. The well-appointed kitchen offers quality appliances, generous storage and a large pantry.
Three bedrooms each have built-in robes, including the private master suite with its own ensuite. There’s also a beautifully finished multipurpose room that could make an impressive rumpus, hobby or work space, with potential for self-contained accommodation, subject to the necessary approvals. A separate rear living area, previously used as a bedroom, offers even more flexibility as a home office, children’s retreat or additional living space.
Comfort is covered with split-system heating and cooling, a wood fireplace and a gas-log fire. Outside, established shade trees bring colour throughout the seasons, while fruit trees, a generous vegetable garden and tucked-away play spaces give the grounds a welcoming, lived-in feel. Children will love discovering the little corners of the garden and enjoying the swing set.
Three separate, interconnecting paddocks provide plenty of room for horses, cattle or simply enjoying the rural outlook. The fencing has recently been redone, and from the outdoor entertaining areas you can take in the paddocks before your gaze travels across the valley to the distant view. A powered 8m x 12m shed and approximately 100,000 litres of water storage add practical value to this appealing small-acreage property.
Properties with this much space, privacy and character so close to town are hard to find. Beautifully cared for and offering room to enjoy the country lifestyle at your own pace, 71 Wallaces Road is a property you’ll want to experience for yourself.
