Unique...

Stunning Goulburn River frontage.
2 homes, 2 properties, 2 titles.
Land size approx 4000m2 (1 acre)
Longstanding family ownership of 74 years.
Idyllic, private, picturesque.
Dreaming of owning an idyllic fishing shack alongside the iconic trout fishing mecca that is the mighty Goulburn River? Maybe it's a place to escape for weekends or even as a permanent home? Why not make it a reality, & better yet, how about 2 homes so the extended family & friends can join you or even create the ultimate fishing getaway for fellow anglers by making one home a bed & breakfast (STCA)
These 2 homes, have been in the same family for 74 years & can now be yours! They are tucked away privately, on approx half acre blocks, situated about 5 minute drive from both Thornton & Eildon, & a few minutes further on to the water sports playground of Lake Eildon.
Where else would you find a private pontoon perched over the river, in the backyard? Certainly not far to bring trout to the kitchen! It's the perfect place to sit & soak up the sights & sounds of this majestic waterway, with a backdrop of towering redgums & rolling farmland.
Walnuts reserve is 300m downstream, where you can launch a boat & tie it up at the pontoon.
Immerse yourself in the park - like grounds that become an Autumn haven when the green canopy that surrounds these homes & provides welcome summer shade, transforms to a stunning palette of colour. Paths meander through the substantial & beautifully established gardens where birdsong adds to the soothing ambience.
The gardens are truly seasonal & have been developed over generations. There are dogwoods, wisteria, willows, a superb swamp cyprus by the river & being mostly deciduous, the winter sun floods in.
The productive areas include an orchard with a variety of stone fruit, citrus, berries, apples & space to establish an extensive vegetable patch.
Water security is guaranteed with riparian rights allowing 2 megalitres, per year, to be drawn from the river for each property.
1 home consists of 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a split system air conditioner & combustion fireplace, while the other home, partly renovated, has 2 bedrooms & a study/3rd bedroom, 1 bathroom, combustion fireplace, electric heating & air conditioner. Another drawcard is a large, modern 3 bay barn with concrete floor & mezzanine.
Move to the High Country & enjoy a relaxing lifestyle by the Goulburn River, with mountains of hiking trails & Lake Eildon's 500km of shoreline to explore.
