A Manageable 30 Hectare Farm with a Proven Life Behind It
After 26 years of ownership, 495 Romawi Road is ready for its next chapter.
Set on approximately 75 acres (30 hectares) just minutes from Bairnsdale, this is a property that has quietly done what many aspire to - supported a full-time working owner, raised livestock successfully, and provided a rich rural lifestyle without becoming overwhelming.
This is not a hobby block pretending to be a farm.
It is a genuinely manageable working holding.
The charming cedar weatherboard home sits comfortably within established gardens, designed for ease of care and independence. Warm timber tones and peaceful outlooks create a home that feels both practical and welcoming.
The land itself has proven capability.
Over the years the current owner has:
Raised cows and calves
Grown steers out to bullocks
Consistently presented stock to market at strong weights
All managed single-handedly thanks to thoughtful infrastructure.
Practical Farm Setup
Divided into 7 main paddocks for rotational grazing
Quality cattle yards designed for one-person handling
Productive soils
Good fencing
Reliable bore servicing stock and garden
This is a property built to function - not just look good.
Lifestyle Without Isolation
Despite its rural privacy, the location keeps everyday life close:
Minutes to Bairnsdale
Easy access to Paynesville
School bus at the gate
Loch Sport reachable by boat across the water
Wattle Point closeby
Generations of family have enjoyed ponies, learning to drive in open paddocks, and the freedom this property provides.
Why This Property Stands Apart
The owner established the bore, built the home, created the gardens and set up the yards to ensure the property could be run alongside full-time work.
It has delivered independence, productivity and lifestyle in equal measure.
The decision to sell is simply about being closer to family.
A rare opportunity to secure a proven, manageable rural holding with genuine history - not just promise.
Realistically priced for today's market.
