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.
