Opportunities like this are rarely found so close to town. Set along tightly held Malcolm Street and just 2.5 kilometres from Mansfield’s schools, shops and everyday conveniences, this standout lifestyle property offers scale, usability and exceptional infrastructure in a highly sought-after town-fringe setting.
The flat, fully usable 11.7-acre (approx) allotment is a key highlight. Whether you are chasing space for kids, horses, hobby farming or simply want land that is easy to manage, this property delivers. Well fenced, with established cattle yards and a large dam already in place, it offers immediate functionality with long-term flexibility.
From the homestead, the outlook extends across the surrounding countryside to Mt Buller and the High Country ranges, providing a constant visual connection to the High Country landscape.
At the heart of the property sits a substantial four-bedroom brick home of approximately 29 squares, built by a respected local builder and offering confidence in its quality, proportions and enduring design. Three separate living areas, high ceilings and polished hardwood floors create a strong sense of space and flow. Two Euro fireplaces add warmth and character, with one framed by a marble mantle.
The main bedroom is privately positioned and features a walk-in robe and full ensuite, while two additional toilets service the rest of the home for everyday family convenience.
The kitchen is full of charm, with hardwood benchtops, a 900mm freestanding stove and a generous walk-in pantry. It opens directly to a large entertaining deck, ideal for relaxed weekends, gatherings with friends and easy outdoor living.
Surrounding the home are a series of thoughtfully landscaped sitting areas, each offering a quiet place to pause and enjoy the established native gardens. Mature trees provide shade and privacy, while seasonal plantings including a flourishing wisteria vine and beautiful roses add colour and softness to the setting, creating an inviting connection between the home and its grounds.
A standout feature of the property is its exceptional shedding. A massive 18 by 9 metre four-bay shed with adjoining carport provides outstanding space for vehicles, machinery, storage or workshop use. In addition, a substantial 11.5-square brick garage offers undercover parking for up to four vehicles, a rare and valuable asset so close to town.
Practicality is further enhanced with a quality 4.5KW solar power system, ceiling fans throughout the home, heat pump solar hot water (with electric backup) accompanied by an excellent water setup - including six 22,500-litre rainwater tanks, which provides a total of 135,000 litres of storage to support efficient, long-term living.
Anchored by a substantial, locally built family home, this is a place to slow down and settle in, where wide open space, beautiful High Country outlooks and the ease of a town-fringe location combine to create a genuinely rewarding way of life.
