Positioned in the highly sought-after Barrabool Hills, just minutes from Geelong, 1900 Barrabool Road, Gnarwarre offers an outstanding lifestyle opportunity on approximately 10 acres (4.06 hectares) of productive, well-drained land. Set amongst established gum trees with paddocks and a pine shelter belt, this picturesque property provides the space, privacy and rural charm that lifestyle buyers are searching for.
The original home, believed to be over 100 years old, has been extended over time (1984 and again in 1994) and presents as a rustic cedar-clad country residence full of warmth and character. Inside, the kitchen features a working wood stove alongside an electric oven and hotplate, while two generous living areas, including a large lounge with wood heater, provide comfortable and flexible spaces for family living.
Outdoor living is a highlight, with a front verandah perfect for relaxed summer afternoons, while the north-facing verandah captures the winter sun and overlooks the garden with established trees, veggie patch and chook pen. The surrounding land offers excellent usability with sheltered paddocks, a dam and elevated areas enjoying beautiful north-west views across the surrounding countryside.
